Name days calendar
Every name has a day. Find out when yours is.
What it does
The Name days calendar maps traditional name days — the calendar custom, celebrated across much of Europe, that gives many names their own feast day — onto the catalog. Browse the calendar and each date shows the names linked to it; names connect through to their catalog pages. Empty cells simply have no mapped names yet.
Who it’s for
Families with European roots, anyone choosing a name with a built-in celebration day, and the deeply curious ("wait, my name has a day?").
How to use it, step by step
- Open the calendar and browse to a month that matters — a due date month, a birthday, an anniversary.
- Look at the names attached to each date; tap through to a name's catalog page for its meaning and details.
- Note the empty cells: not every date has mapped names yet.
What you get
A traditional name-day calendar with catalog names linked to their dates.

💡 Tips & tricks
- Name day + due date is a lovely naming constraint: a name whose day lands near the birth date carries a ready-made tradition.
- Check your own name first. Most people have never looked, and it is a delightful small discovery.
