December 6 is observed as the Feast of Saint Nicholas, honored in both Catholic and Orthodox traditions. In Albania, the day carries cultural and religious weight, especially in regions with deep Christian roots.
- Nikoll / Nikola – Albanian and Slavic forms of Nicholas, from the Greek Nikolaos, meaning victory of the people (nikē = victory, laos = people). The name is strongly connected to Saint Nicholas, known for his generosity and protection of the poor.
