Naming Rules in Slovakia

Slovakia maintains a calendar of name days that influences naming choices, though parents are not strictly limited to these names. Names must indicate gender (Slovak grammar requires gender-specific endings), and the civil registry can refuse names that are inappropriate or could harm the child.
