Notes
Ukrainian locality history distinguishes pre-1944 Емільчине (Emilchyne) from current Ємільчине (Yemilchyne). Mezhyrichka/Mezhyrichky/Mezhyrich were also used until the late nineteenth century. French Iemiltchyne and Yemiltchyne coexist in the checked reference. Standard-derived forms are retrieval aids, not claims of English prose frequency.
