What kinda name is that and what does it mean?

I think I spelled it wrong. Just spelled it how I heard it.

Were there two Milkas in Tanach or am I mistaken?

That’s so interesting.
Do people in Monroe or Williamsburg pronounce Malky like milky?

I never heard a Malky being called milky in Boro park...

When I first met this girl I literally thought I heard wrong.

Or that it was a unique name or something.

Can someone clarify?

Nobody pronounces Malky like Milky.
Milka is a completely different name. It's a biblical name, see above posts.

The first time I heard the name milky I also thought it sounded strange. I think I only heard it twice. It’s really the name Milka but people use milky for that. Definitely not a popular name.

If you’re chassidish and used to it, it’s not cruel at all. That’s just your opinion of an unfamiliar name.

I went to school with someone Milka who was allergic to milk. Not chassidish. As others have mentioned it’s a name in tanach.

It's not quite as bad as Itchy for Yitzchak, but it's not a great nickname.
