Slovak Baby Girl Names With Meanings

Slovak names are typically composed of two parts: a given name and a family name (surname). Slovakia uses the Western name order with the given name first and the surname last, although there is a historical tradition to reverse this order, especially in official context (like in administrative papers and legal documents) as well as on gravestones and memorials.

Most Slovaks do not have a middle name. The family name forms for males and females are distinct in Slovakia, making it possible to identify gender from the name alone. With marriage, the bride typically adopts the bridegroom’s surname
