Sykora Name Meaning, Origin and Heraldry

Sykora is best understood together with Sikora: both are Polish spellings of a single family name. In origin, the name means “Titmouse (bird)”.

How the spelling arose

Sykora writes “y” in place of the “i” found in Sikora, a common scribal difference. Regional accents shaped spellings long before dictionaries fixed them. The same family of names includes Sikorska and Sikorski.
