[Facts] Re: Yolçu and Əfi
in reply to a message by Anya Mel’nik or Mel’nyk
Yolçu means "traveller, wayfarer" or "beggar, pauper" in Azerbaijani:

Əfi means "venomous snake", and comes from Arabic أفعى (ʔafʕan):

But maybe it's simply a short form of some other name, like in this case (presumably short for Əflatun):
