Meaning and history
Kukka is a Finnish feminine name taken directly from the Finnish word kukka, meaning “flower.” It belongs to a broader Nordic tradition of using nature words as personal names, and its meaning is lexical rather than derived from an ancient compound. Kukka also appears as an element in Finnish compound given names. Because some apparent examples are nicknames or parts of longer names, prominent exact-name bearers are limited. The double k reflects standard Finnish spelling and pronunciation.
