أصل الاسم

Valley road circa 1900

Birkirkara means "cold water" or "running water".[2] This is attributed to the valley in the town.[3]

Originally, the name was written as Birchircara, as influenced by Italian spelling which traditionally does not use the letter 'K'. It is often abbreviated as B'kara/Kara.
