Default Outlook should let me choose "today's name" (Scandinavia)

In some Scandinavian countries (Finland, Norway and Sweden), and also in
Russia I believe, each day of the year have a special name attached to it.
People celebrate "The name day" in kind of the same way as birthday (or
actually more like mothers day). In printed calendars in Scandinavia, the
name of the day is printed, but when you (like me) only use Outlook, we risk
loosing this tradition. I therefore would like Microsoft to create a plug-in
like for holidays, which one can put into the Outlook calendar.

You seem to have a firm grasp on what you want to do - program it yourself
or have a friend do it for you and then market it to countries where this
would be of benefit.

They may want it in Hungary too - they have names days there as well.
