Happy Name Day, Ivan! Všechno nejlepší k svátku!

Today we honor Ivan.  Happy Name Day, Ivan!
Ivan is of Russian and Slavic origin, and is a variant of the name John, which is of Hebrew origin and means "God is gracious".
This was the name of six Russian rulers, including the 15th-century Ivan III the Great and 16th-century Ivan IV the Terrible, the first czar of Russia.
