Name Day
In Christianity, a name day is a tradition in many countries of Europe and the Americas, as well as Christian communities elsewhere. It consists of celebrating a day of the year that is associated with one's baptismal name, which is normatively that of a List of biblical names, biblical character or other saint. Where they are popular, individuals celebrate both their name day and their birthday in a given year. The custom originated with the Christian calendar of saints: believers named after a saint would celebrate that saint's feast day.

Vlastislav was mythological prince of Lucko (by Žatec). Son of legendary Czech prince Vojen, a brother of another prince Vnislav.
