Lucie
Czech · “Lucie is the Czech and Slovak feminine form of Lucy, derived from the Latin "Lucia" from "lux" meaning "light." Saint Lucy of Syracuse (c. 283–304), a Sicilian martyr whose name-day falls on December 13 — once the longest night of the year in the Julian calendar — became associated with light in the darkness. In Czech tradition, Saint Lucie's Day is marked by folk customs involving young women dressed in white going house to house.”
Tereza

Saint Teresa of Ávila (1515–1582), the Spanish Carmelite mystic and reformer, made this name beloved throughout the Catholic world. In Czech literature, Tereza is the central female figure in Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being."”

Zbynek
“Zbyněk is a Czech masculine given name. It is the Czech equivalent of the Polish Zbigniew, derived from the Old Slavic elements zbyti meaning "to get rid of" and gnev meaning "anger" — thus "one who has rid himself of anger" or "dispeller of wrath." The name has been in use in Bohemia since the medieval period.”
Zdenek
“Zdeněk is a Czech masculine given name, most commonly explained as derived from the Latin Sidonius, meaning "man from Sidon" (a Phoenician city in modern Lebanon). An alternative etymology derives it as a diminutive form of Zdeslav, a Slavic dithematic name. It is an exclusively Czech name with no equivalent in other Slavic languages, giving characters who bear it an unmistakably Bohemian identity.”
Milan
“Milan is a South and West Slavic masculine name derived from the Slavic root "mil" meaning "grace," "favor," or "dear." As a short form of compound names like Miloslav or Milenko, it conveys the idea of one who is gracious or beloved. The name is widely used in Czech, Slovak, Serbian, Croatian, Slovenian, and Bulgarian cultures, and is internationally associated with the Czech-French author Milan Kundera.”
Vit
“Vít is a Czech masculine given name derived from the Latin Vitus, from vita meaning "life." Saint Vitus was a Sicilian martyr of the early fourth century whose cult became enormously popular in Bohemia — Prague's great gothic cathedral, St. Vitus Cathedral, is named after him, making the name deeply embedded in Czech national identity.”
