I've compiled a list of all birth announcements from my local newspapers in 2011 (I think I've posted most of them here during the past year). The popularity is in accordance with national statistics, but there are some interesting ones among one-offers.

Here are U, V & Z (+ Ž) girls' names:

Una 6×
Valentina 15×
Valentina Penelope
Valeri
Valerie
Vanesa 3×
Vanessa 2×
Vanja 3×
Veda
Veronika 2×
Vesna 2×
Victoria
Vida
Viki
Viktoria
Viktorija 4×
Violeta 3×
Vita 3×
Vlatka 3×
Zara 6×
Zora Veronika
Žana -see Zana
Željka 3× -see Zeljka

*since we don't use middle names, they're grouped as double first names

I don't think there's a reason for Valentina's popularity, it's always been common here (as have other similar names like Nikolina, Martina, Katarina, etc.).
