Lipnitskaia (Липницкая) means "coming from Lipnyk". Lipnyk derives from common tree "lipa" (липа) - linden or lime in english - it's a settlement among/near linden forest.This might be old, but can anyone knows Russian help me with Yulia's name? What does her name mean in Russian? I suppose all names have their own meaning some how, just like the Asian names. thank you in advance.
There are tons of villages and towns in Slavic countries called "Lipnyk", many inhabitants took their surnames from their place of residence.
