ArchivesCelkupa?
I've asked on the other message board by mistake, and thus have taken the topic here.
That aside: do you know what's the etymology behind the name Celkupa? Someone said it was Albanian, but I've tried googling and little has come up. Any luck on your end?

It is an Albanian name, with a cedilla attached to the initial C. I've no idea of the meaning. Most bearers of the name thrown up by google have Islamic forenames, but it doesn't appear to be from an Islamic given name, or a Christian one for that matter. Perhaps there is a place called Celkup or Celkupa in Albania.
The word celik (with c-cedilla) means "steel" in Albanian. Could this be a derivative?
