Võruka

Võruka is a name that appears in Estonian-language contexts as a geographical toponym, a personal name, and occasionally in cultural works. In geography, Võruka is not a currently independent municipality in modern administrative records; rather, it appears as a historical or minor toponym in various county-level lists and place-name registries, often as part of larger villages or parishes. The precise location and status of such places may vary across sources, and some datasets list Võruka only in older maps or genealogical materials.

In onomastics, Võruka can function as a surname or a rare given name in Estonia. Instances are scarce, and the name does not appear among the more common Estonian given names. As with many small toponyms, bearers of the name may have origins tied to a locality bearing the name.

In culture and folklore, the term Võruka has limited attestation and largely appears in regional or fictional contexts. There is no widely recognized myth or literary figure universally identified with the name in major reference works.

Etymology is not definitively established in accessible sources. It may be related to elements found in Estonian toponymy or to the name Võru, but scholarly consensus is not evident.
