Yes, 'J' is pronouced like 'Y' every time. Also, i=ee.
BA means birth announcement
I always love these lists!
Even though Slovene ancestors came here over a century ago, I have a strange fondness for the names. Croatian shares many of the same names, so I really enjoy seeing these.
I like:
Anica --I love this, a bit more as a nickname
Anja (Katja & Dragan) --I love Katja more so as a nickname
Bruno
Dora (Majda & Igor) --Majda is new to me, but it sounds pretty
(Marina & Ivan) --I love these
