Name days in Bulgaria
A name day is a day in the year, that honours the life and the name of a certain Saint. Some of the name days
are associated with certain Bulgarian traditions, which are still observed in many families.
Name days (Imen Den) in Bulgaria are valued a lot and some of them are celebrated just so officially
as the Public holidays. Most of the name days are known by everyone and it is very likely guests to visit uninvited. The person
who is celebrating the name day is often greeted by giving flowers or small gift.
