same here Andrea is very frequent girls name.:d also my ex´s name is Andrea...but well thats another story..

 

in fact It´s easy to recognize slovak names, if the name end by "A" it´s girls name :) so if Mattia would be slovak name, it would be for a girl :d

It's mostly the same in Croatia. I remember laughing when as a kid I heard that Andrea is a male name in Italy. :p

Yep, also in Hungary Horvath is a very common surname, I don't know why. :dunno: Translation of "Horvath" into English is "Croat" for those who don't know. :d

 

And obviously Horvat is the most common surname in Croatia. :evil:

      It would have been nice to keep things closer like Portland or Seattle, but I guess if you already have to take a multi-hour flight you might as well go for bigger places.

      ROWING COASTAL   There will be individual and mixed qualifying competitions. Those who qualify in the mixed competition will also be able to participate in the individual competition, and if a country qualifies a man and a woman in the individual competition, they will also be able to participate in the mixed competition.

      Honestly, I don't really like these team sports that only have 6 teams. I understand there's a limit on the number of athletes, but it should be at least 8 per gender.

      Every year they are incredibly slow to announce the Brazilian flag bearers, Paris 2024 was also slow.
