Slav with Germanic name? :confused:

What is the name?

I rather not say, it's very unique and uncommon. It's popular in Austria, Bosnia and Croatia. I've only met one other person in the world with such a name, and heard of only 5 others with my name in the world.

There's no valid information about the origins of my name, all I know is that it's Germanic and came to Bosnia via Austria-Hungary.

Also, there are plenty of Germanic names that are popular among Slavs such as Igor and Olga.

I do not believe Yaroslav is of slavic origins,but of viking origins,since 5th descendant of Rurik was called Yaroslav:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaroslav_I_the_Wise
You can see he had scandinavian wives.

My name is from hebrew since it is Mihail (Michael in english) and is very common at romanians because they are christian orthodox and Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel are very respected in Romania and other christian orthodox countries.

[Methmatician]

Favourite actor/cowboy.......:(

At least it has an interesting story behind it.

Turkic "sea"+Persian originated "life/heart"...

My name is a combined name but I use the first one mostly :)

i hate every parents give their children name +''life/heart'' and +''rose/coyeness'' nowadays.. it sometimes sounds really annoying.. it's a wise choice you only use ''sea'' :)

Kalbimi Vatanıma Gömdüm isimli kitapta bir Kızılderili'nin ismi İlaç Şişesi'ydi ..Yatın kalkın dua edin :D
