More Czech names
Petra
“Petra is the feminine form of Peter, derived from the ancient Greek "Petros" meaning "rock" or "stone" — itself a translation of the Aramaic "Cephas," the name given by Jesus to his apostle Simon. The feminine form is used across Czech, Slovak, German, Dutch, and other European cultures. In Czech and Slovak it has been one of the most popular feminine names since the 1960s and is associated with a generation of dynamic, independent women.”
Bohumil
“Bohumil is a Czech and Slovak masculine given name of Slavic origin, composed of the elements boh (God) and mil (dear, gracious, beloved). It means "dear to God" or "beloved by God." Its feminine equivalent is Bohumila. The name is specifically Czech and Slovak in character, though related forms like the Polish Bogumił exist in other Slavic languages.”
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."”
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.”
Vaclav
“Václav is a Czech and Slovak masculine name of Slavic origin, from the Old Slavic "Veceslav," composed of "vece" meaning "more" or "greater" and "slava" meaning "glory" — thus "more glorious" or "gaining glory." Saint Václav (Good King Wenceslas, c. 907–935), the Duke of Bohemia martyred by his brother Boleslav, is the patron saint of Bohemia and the Czech state. His image on the horseback statue in Prague's Wenceslas Square has made him the enduring symbol of Czech national identity.”
Ludek
“Luděk is a Czech masculine given name, a short form of Slavic compound names such as Ludoslav or Ludomír, from the Old Slavic lud meaning "people" and slav (glory) or mir (peace). The element lud (people) connects the name to the people's traditions and community — a name rooted in collective identity rather than individual distinction.”
