Desislava is named among the daughters in the manuscript of 1355–1356. She belongs to a different century from her namesake at Boyana Church. A shared name is not proof of kinship. The images, inscriptions and catalogue description support this entry; missing years or events are not filled with guesses. Was a daughter of Ivan Alexander. Appears on folio 2v of the Gospel book. Appears alongside Kera Thamara and Keratsa. Distinguishing the namesakes preserves the meaning of two different historical objects.
