tucinkae
Moravian Czech hypocorism tucinka, for female pet animals and, rarely, as a nickname for young girls (Jiří Mlíkovský in litt.). Von Seilern und Aspang 1913, based at Lešná Castle in Moravia, did not explain the eponym, but it doubtless refers to his first daughter, Ilona Maria Caroline, born on 1st March in that year and baptised by Fr. Kapoun (Eubucco) (see kapouni).
