It is less probable Dikovsky to be Russian than Bulgarian/Macedonian.

Actially, places named Dikovo could be found a in all Slavonic countries and thus Dikovsky may mean "of Dikovo".

Additionally, Diko is personal name in Bulgarian/Macedonian. Patronym from Diko would be Dikov (originally) and Dikovsky (in FYROM).

You may use Google to search for "Äèêîâñêè", "Äèêîâñêèé", "Äûêîâñêè", "Äûêîâñêèé".

Thanks for clarifying the Russian origin.

Can you explain the "Labor improbus omnia vincit" part of your response, I'm not quite following what it means?
