===Croatia=== {{Main|Name days in Croatia}} In [[Croatia]], name day ({{langx|hr|imendan}}) is a day corresponding to a date in the Catholic calendar when the respective [[Calendar of saints|saint's day]] is celebrated. Even though the celebration of the name day is less usual than celebrating a birthday, the name day is more often the occasion of congratulations from a broader number of acquaintances. This is due to the fact that the date of birth is seldom known and the person's name is known to many. The names that are celebrated on the certain saint's day are all the names that correspond to the respective name and all the derivative names. For example, if there are different versions of the same name in different languages (e.g. [[John (given name)|John]]), i.e. different versions in [[Slavic languages|Slavic]], [[Romance languages|Romance]], [[Germanic languages|Germanic]] or other language groups, all the respective names are celebrated.
