Thekla is an ancient Greek female name derived from "Aikle" meaning "glory" or "honor," and it gained fame through the veneration of Saint Thekla in the early Church. In the German-speaking world, it experienced a great flourishing in the 19th and early 20th centuries before receding somewhat into the background, only to now return as a stylish classic. The name carries historical weight, yet appears surprisingly modern and handy due to its short form.
Thekla is a woman with a firm handshake and a clear gaze, who dislikes being squeezed into boxes. At first glance, she may seem somewhat distant, but she possesses a dry, intelligent humor that only insiders immediately appreciate. As a natural leader, she prefers facts over clichés and has a certain "grandma look" aura, which she combines with a young, rebellious soul.
