Gorki

/ˈɡɔːrki/ noun

Definition

An alternative or transliterated form, possibly relating to Gorky or a variant spelling of a Russian name or place.

Etymology

This appears to be a transliteration of a Russian name or place (possibly Горки), which may derive from 'gora' (Russian for 'mountain'). The spelling varies due to different transliteration systems.

Kelly Says

Transliterating Cyrillic to Latin letters creates endless spelling variations—Gorky, Gorki, Gorkiy—which is why Russian names can look like different people until you realize it's just spelling choices.
