Name days in Croatia
In Croatia, a name day (Croatian: imendan) is a day corresponding to a date in the Catholic calendar when the respective saint's day is celebrated. Even though celebration of the name day is less usual than celebrating birthday, the name day is more often congratulated by broader number of acquaintances. This is because the date of birth is seldom known and the person's name is known to many. When several saints share the same name, imendan calendars will show all of them. However, it is customary to celebrate only one of them, typically the most famous.
