I'm not sure if i'm fully understanding the bulgarian naming patterns. I am searching for my grandfathers ancestry I think I found him but not 100%. So I have his mothers name Deshka Dimitrova Koleva and my grandfathers name was Eli Koloff atleast in the US it was, so my question is what could his fathers name possibly be. I found an Alexa Koleff in the passenger list at Ellis Island that has the same birthday as my grandfather and it says his mothers name is Deshka Koleva so I think Its him but not positive any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
