Hey.
I have recently met a friend from Poland.
She has gotten me interested in Name Days.
But me and her neither can find what my name would be in Polish on the calender.

Any help?

My name is Naomi...

I know Polish people alot of their names different to our english way....

Any change of my name being there somewhere....

Thanks in advance! :)

this name didn't make it to Poland, so we don't have a Name Day for you, sorry :(
BUT there's hope, our Name Days are based on Catholic/Christian calenders, so if there's a saint patron in other Catholic calender/country, you can use it.

(according to Italian Wikipedia) it exists in Italian (as Noemi, with the variant Naomi) coming from Hebraic Noam (= "pleasure")

and the most important:
there's a Name Day (even 2 possibilities)
4 June (together with Saint Ruth, Naomi's daughter-in-law)
According to other sources: 14 December
