Veronika is the Czech and Slavic form of Veronica — from the Latin vera icona, meaning "true image." Saint Veronica is the legendary woman who wiped Jesus's face with her veil on the way to Calvary.
Veronika is widely used in the Czech Republic, Russia, and Eastern Europe.
Veronika is a compound name. Its parts are níkē — each an attested element with a recorded meaning of its own.
Veronika does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Veronika reduce to 5, The Seeker. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
