Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Maďarské ženské meno z rodiny mien Gyöngy, Gyöngyi a Gyöngyvér. Onomastická encyklopédia Fercsikovej a Raátzovej ho uvádza ako osamostatnenú zdrobnenú podobu mena Gyöngyvér. Základ gyöngy znamená „perla“; zdrobnený význam možno vyjadriť ako „perlička“.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Pôvod a príbuzné domácke podoby: Fercsik Erzsébet – Raátz Judit, Keresztnevek enciklopédiája, 2009, heslo Gyöngyi, s. 385–387. Uvedené domácke tvary sú doložené v tejto maďarskej mennej rodine; ich obľúbenosť v slovenských rodinách nie je overená. Cudzojazyčné položky zachovávajú pôvodné meno, nepredstavujú osobitné národné ekvivalenty. Nesklonnosť vyplýva z pravidla pre ženské osobné mená zakončené na -e: Morfológia slovenského jazyka, 1966, s. 123. Konkrétne heslo v publikácii Milana Majtána nebolo overené.
