In Czech it has been one of the most consistently popular feminine names since the medieval period.”
Marketa
“Markéta is the Czech form of Margaret, derived through Latin Margarita from ancient Greek margarites meaning "pearl."

Petra
“Petra is the feminine form of Peter, derived from the ancient Greek "Petros" meaning "rock" or "stone" — itself a translation of the Aramaic "Cephas," the name given by Jesus to his apostle Simon. The feminine form is used across Czech, Slovak, German, Dutch, and other European cultures. In Czech and Slovak it has been one of the most popular feminine names since the 1960s and is associated with a generation of dynamic, independent women.”
Radim
