RARE NAME
She said that she was given a name of Tsveteyoana [Flower Joanna] due to a difficult pregnancy for her mother. "My parents didn't know until the end if I would survive and they didn't think of a name. My father had a dream that I was called like that and after I was born he said that my name would be Tsveteyoana." (Bulgarian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation Facebook page, 20 Feb 2023)
