namedays

In countries which celebrate namedays, each day of the year has a name associated with it; typically the name of a saint. Cultures which do not celebrate namesdays may still be familiar with Saint Patrick's Day, Saint George's Day, etc. These days are considered special for people with the same name as a given day. Examples:
