Bulgarian fishermen, sailors and bankers celebrated Wednesday their common patron, Christian St Nicholas.
The seaside city of Burgas also marked its holiday along with the day of the Miracle-Worker saint.
Meanwhile, people named Nikolay, Nikola and Nikolina have invited friends and family members to big Name's Day parties.
According to Christian mythology, St Nicholas is roaming the seas and helping ships that might be in trouble. He is also believed to be the master of sea winds.
The traditional Nikulden dish is oven-baked carp, stuffed with rice, walnuts, raisins and herbs. Bulgarian tradition requires for the fishbones to be then reduced to ashes, buried underground or thrown down a river. This ritual is believed to bring well-being to the family.
