A list of Slovenian names, and their origins, can be found here.
I was surprised to see that the ubiquitous “Maja” isn’t on the list. According to this site (and I don’t vouch for its accuracy) the origins of Maja are German/Polish/Scandinavian. I always thought of it as Slavic.
Also missing from the list is one of the earliest known Slovenian names; one that is currently (and unfortunately) making a comeback here: Gal. I can’t say I enjoy that one. It makes me think of “gall”, as in “gall bladder,” which brings up all sorts of unpleasant images. It’s a masculine name, by the way.
You can go here for the rest: Behind the Name: Slovene Names.

Borut is missing too!
And Mojca! They told me “Mojca” is old Slovenian name. Where they wrong?
