Free Slovenian name generator

Explore names that echo Slovenia’s mountains, folklore, and centuries of Central European history.

Names in Slovenia

In Slovenia, given names can be drawn from various sources, including the Slovenian, Slavic, and Christian traditions. Slovenian adaptations of names from elsewhere also feature. The statistics office for Slovenia has noted that there’s a growing trend toward shorter names in the country.

Family/surnames also have a range of origins. Notable sources are professions (like Šuštar, meaning shoemaker), places (like Dolinšek, referring to a valley), nature (like Jelen, meaning deer), nationalities (like Horvat, referring to Croatia), and personal characteristics.

In Slovenia, names typically follow the Western name order: a given/first name and then a family/surname. Given names that are a combination of two names (like Žan Luka) are common.
