Name Day List - 23.04
Global Commemorations on the Date
April 23 sees an exceptionally diverse range of names recognized in the USA, where name day honors are bestowed upon dozens of individuals sharing the names Brian, Bryana, and Shirley. In sharp contrast, name days across Europe on April 23 are largely centered around two primary naming traditions. The tradition connected to the name George is highly prevalent, resulting in recognitions for Georg, Jurgis, Jorens, and Jorgen across Scandinavia, the Baltics, Germany, and Southern Europe. A secondary theme involves the names Adalbert and Vojtěch, which are specifically commemorated in Poland, Lithuania, Czechia, and Slovakia. Countries like France and Italy list single names, Georges and Giorgio respectively, reinforcing the Saint George connection throughout Western Europe. The comprehensive list illustrates a strong cultural continuity tied to specific historical figures across the European mainland.
