Name Day List - 05.02
February Fifth Global Celebrations
For February 5, the American list of name days displays a striking modernity by featuring names like Phoenix, Chanel, and Chantel, alongside the traditional Agatha. In contrast, most European nations adhere strictly to variations of the classic name Agata, reflecting deep religious and historical roots. This core name ties together celebrations in countries spanning from Austria to Ukraine, where the name appears with only minor orthographical differences. Regional variations offer unique additions; Latvia, for example, lists Ardis and Selga, while Lithuania features Gaudvinas and Birute. Furthermore, the Polish name day tradition is exceptionally rich on February 5, presenting over a dozen names including Izydor, Albin, and Justynian. Notably, a strong Slavic theme is evident in both Czechia and Bulgaria, where names rooted in themes of wellness and goodness are celebrated concurrently with the Agata tradition.
