[Facts] Re: GREEK NAME DAY
in reply to a message by John
According to this site, Vanessa has an altogether different etymology :)Although the name Aphrodite is frequently used in contemporary Greece, it does not have a Greek nameday as there was no X-tian St Aphrodite :) Of course you may chose to celebrate Aphrodite on July 15, date of the Aphrodisia festival of the Hekatombaion in classical Hellenic tradition.
