Slíková’s history stretches back to medieval times, with mentions in historical records tied to feudal estates and agricultural life typical of the era. The name Slíková is of Slavic origin; the suffix -ová marks the feminine form used in Czech and Slovak place names, and the root likely refers to a geographic feature or landholding. Variants of the name occur in multiple locales, so precise identification usually requires additional geographic context.
