Name Day List - 06.01

Global Mid-Winter NameDay Celebrations

The comprehensive list of NameDays celebrated across the globe on January 6 begins with the USA, where names like Howell, Hoyle, and Talullah are honored alongside Melchior and various forms of Tiffany and Cheyenne. This specific date is profoundly significant due to its association with Epiphany, which dictates the core NameDay selections in numerous Catholic and Orthodox countries. The names of the Three Kings—Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthazar—are celebrated universally, appearing directly in countries such as France, Spain, and Hungary. Unique variations occur in the Slavic world; for instance, Poland observes Andrzej and Bolemir alongside the traditional Magi names. Greece and Bulgaria emphasize names linked to the religious concept of light and water, honoring names such as Theofania, Fotini, and Jordan. The Estonian list is notably distinct, recognizing Aabel, Aabi, Roven, and Rowan, highlighting local linguistic differences.
