Nichola Origin and Meaning

The name Nichola is a girl's name of Eastern European origin.

Nichola is the feminine form of Nicholas, derived from the Greek name Nikolaos, combining 'nike' (victory) and 'laos' (people), thus meaning 'victory of the people.' While Nicholas has been consistently popular for boys, Nichola is a relatively uncommon feminine variation, offering an alternative to the more widely used Nicola, Nicole, or Nicolette. The name carries a classical elegance while still feeling accessible. Popular in parts of Europe, particularly the UK, Nichola has never reached the same level of popularity in the United States. The name maintains the strong historical connections of Nicholas, including associations with Saint Nicholas, while offering a distinctly feminine option with a softer ending.
