totallyCroatian names are fantastic, and I'm not picky if they are on babies or dead people. Some of my favourite names are worn by dead people. I am totally loving Cedomil (SO COOL), Elza, and STEVO that is too awesome. Sounds like a great 80's pop group. Arg! You should send all these to Mike so he can add them to the database. I must have these names on my list.

I've added some as user-submitted names and I'm compiling an e-mail for Mike with new additions. I think there are over 50 male and female names on it (not all are Croatian, but most are) and it keeps growing.

Yeah, I find Rozalija awesome too, but it's not seen around much now. Oh, and about Luca and Luka, the first is pronounced with a 'tz' and is only female (as in a nickname for Lucija), while Luka is with a 'k' and is male.
