Name Day List - 23.01

International Naming Traditions

NameDay celebrations on January 23 in the USA feature a strong collection of names beginning with R, such as Ramon, Ramona, and Rachelle, alongside the gem-inspired names Emerald and Esmeralda. This date witnesses widespread observances across at least twenty countries, stretching from the Nordic region down to the Mediterranean Sea. Lithuania and Latvia maintain very distinct indigenous names, including Algimantasp and Grieta, respectively, reflecting strong local traditions. A connection through names like Ildefons and Emerencija is evident across Poland, Spain, and Denmark. Central Europe, including Czechia and Slovakia, focuses on single entries like Zdeněk and Miloš, marking smaller but dedicated acknowledgments. The diverse lists, particularly the extensive choices in Poland, highlight the varying depth of cultural cataloguing of traditional figures associated with January 23.
