Kaja Godek (b. May 2nd 1982, Warsaw) is a Polish anti-abortion activist.
https://sl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaja -- as a Slovene name, this seems to be primarily treated as a short form of names beginning with "Ka-", such as Kajetana, Karla, Katarina. The derivation from Gaja seems to be an afterthought.
Also a girls name in Croatia. It was fairly common before 1970, and became popular again in the late 1990s.
In Croatia Kaja is almost always thought of as a diminutive of Katarina, but it can be a short form of any name beginning with "Ka" like Karolina.
In fact very rarely it was also used as a masculine name, a variant/nickname of Kajo (Gajo, Gaj) itself the Croatian form of Gaius.
Also popular as a girls name in Slovenia.
Kája is used as a pet form also in Czechoslovakia.
As a pet form of Karolina, Kaja has only been used in Poland within the last 20 years (or less). Thus, it's fairly modern.
