Why do Slovenians have such weird names? Are they even slavs?

All of those are Slavic, except Blaž which has a Greek origin.

Borut (orig. Borouth) was the name of a duke of Carantania in the 8th century

Uroš is a Serbian name that has been adopted into the Slovenian naming stock

Blaž is the Latin name Blasius

Mitja is a Russian rendering of Matthew; Russian diminutives make for popular first names in Slovenia (Aljoša, Vitja, Tosja), probably via Russian literature.

Tjaša is the Russian diminutive of Tatjana, and a very popular name.

Names seem fine to me. Do you mean surnames?

filej looks like the venetian word for "sons/kids" (fiói) if it is pronounced in the way i think

>Mitja is a Russian rendering of Matthew
Actually it's just a diminutive for Dmitrij

>Tjaša is the Russian diminutive of Tatjana
That would be Tania. Tjaša seems to be your own invention desu

The surname seems to come from the Goriška Brda region north of Gorica, so you're prob right.

>Ime Tjaša je po izvoru ruska tvorjenka na -ša iz imena Tatjana. Druga pri nas znana ruska tvorjenka je ime Tanja. Ime Tjaša je tudi možna ženska oblika imena Tjaš, odnosno Tjaž, možno pa je seveda tudi obratno, da je ime Tjaš moška oblika imena Tjaša.
>Ruski imeni Tanja oz. Tatjana, iz katerega je izpeljano ime Tjaša nekateri raziskovalci razlagajo iz imena Tacijana (latinsko Tatiana), kar naj bi pomenilo »tiha, molčeča«.

t. the Slovenian lexicon of names

>Says the crypto-pseudo-Slav.

Borut is qt

How are they weird?

Btw, Mitja is how we may informally refer to Dmitriy in Russia too.

sounds slav to me

I guess the OP was referring to surnames.
