Naming Rules in Austria

Austria follows similar naming rules to Germany. Names must be recognizable as first names and indicate the child's gender. The Standesamt (civil registry) reviews all names and can refuse those deemed harmful to the child. Austrian law also requires that the name must come from an established naming tradition.
