Name days in Emerstari

Feiringskedegen (1888) by Lovisa Johanna Olafssen enpicturing a name day celebration.

Name days have their origin in Emerstari with the Catholic Church, yet the tradition persisted even after the reformation in Emerstari. Since 1683, the Kuingsuppbokshus, sometimes known as the King's Encyclopedic Academy in English has released a calendar of name days annually. There are at least two name per day, one male and one female, but sometimes there are four, two male and two female, on the list, and they usually chosen because a saint or a royal was born or died on that day. It was not too common for someone to be named for the day they were born on, often because they were named after a family member or because they were not named at birth (sometimes, though, they received their middle name because of their name day): as a result of this, both birthdays and name days are celebrated days for someone in Emerstari, but birthday celebrations are usually larger than name day celebrations.
