Tereza
“Tereza is the Czech and Slovak form of Teresa, a name of uncertain origin — possibly from the Greek island of Thira (Santorini) or from the Greek "therizo" meaning "to harvest," or possibly from the Latin "terra" meaning "earth." 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."”
Jiri
“Jiří is the Czech form of George, derived through Byzantine Greek Georgios from "georgos" meaning "earth-worker" or "farmer." Saint George, the dragon-slaying martyr, is widely venerated in the Czech lands, and Jiří has been one of the most consistently popular Czech masculine names throughout history. The Bohemian King Jiří z Poděbrad (George of Poděbrady, 1420–1471) was the only Hussite king ever to rule Bohemia.”
Ruzena
“Růžena is a Czech and Slovak feminine name derived from the Czech word růže meaning "rose." It is the Czech equivalent of Rosa/Rose and one of the most traditionally Czech feminine names. The rose has associations with the Virgin Mary, making Růžena simultaneously a botanical and devotional name in Czech Catholic culture.”
Petr
“Petr is the Czech form of Peter, derived from the Greek Petros meaning "stone" or "rock." The name was given by Jesus to the apostle Simon — "You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church" — making it one of the foundational names of Christian Europe. In Czech culture Petr is one of the most common masculine names, present in every generation and social stratum.”
Nela
“Nela is a Slavic feminine name used primarily in Croatian, Czech, and Slovak as a diminutive of Antonela or Antonie.

It is also used in German-speaking countries as a short form of Cornelia.”
Vit
