Hi All,
From my marriage to a Frenchman, I learnt that they have a thing called French Calendar names. Every day of each month, they have name(s) attached to the days of the month. Please take a look at the link below:

Having said that, not all French people follow this culture.
Some French people interpreted my Christian name based on their culture. I had to explain to them that I was not born in xyz month. It was not at all related to their culture that my Chistian name is such and such. In fact, I was already named by my parents before I started learning French.
I am wondering, do other European cultures or other cultures also name their children based on the dates in their calendar?
