Russian
Etymology
Inherited from Proto-Slavic *sojьka. By surface analysis, со́я (sója, “jay (dialectal)”) + -ка (-ka). Cognate with Ukrainian со́я (sója), Belarusian со́я (sója), Bulgarian со́йка (sójka), Serbo-Croatian со̑јка, Slovene sȏjka (“type of jackdaw”) (tonal orthography), Czech sojka (“jay”), Slovak sojka (“jay”), Polish soja (also sójka), Upper Sorbian soja. Per Vasmer, presumably related to Russian сия́ть (sijátʹ, “to shine”), based on the colorful feathers.
