I don't know what nationality the name "Jankov" you're referring to comes from, but, even so, it's obvious that this is a form of the name "Jacob." The biblical Hebrew for Jacob is "Yaacov." The a's in the word are, in Hebrew, the letter "ayin," which has a harder sound than a vowel, almost like a consonant, when pronounced authentically. In Yiddish the name, "Yaakov" is often pronounced "Yankov."
