Whats your Name Day?
What is a Name Day
Celebrated across most of Europe, Name days are equivalent to Birthdays if you are unfamilar with the concept; gifts and cards are given as well as parties held in the persons honour.
Originally from Feast days of Saints with the same given or first name much of Europe celebrate Name Days in much the same way as Birthdays are celebrated in the UK and America.
Your Name day is the Feast day of the Saint with the same given or first name. Below we've listed all the names we've collected to date and the day of the year their name-day falls on. If yours is not listed then email us and we will try to find if you have a name-day.
What's in a name? Lots of names have a history or pedigree to them that have seen the test of time. Some names remain as popular today as they were in biblical times whereas some have fallen out of favour with new ones becoming more popular. Lots of names come from locations, such as towns or villages, often these do not have a date associated with the name
Select the first letter of the Name you want to find, the M or F in brackets following the name represents whether we are referring to the male of female version of the name.

I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for the great service you gave - I placed an order yesterday afternoon for a 50th anniversary frame and it arrived at 8.00 this morning. That's fantastic, efficient service and the frame is just what I was after. Will certainly recommend you to friends/family. Many thanks Julie
