What Day Was I Born?
Enter your birth date to find out which day of the week you were born.
Do You Know What Day You Were Born?
Knowing your birth date does not mean you know what day you were born. Wednesday? Friday? Sunday? This tool instantly calculates what day of the week any date falls on. Besides your birthday, you can also use it to check important dates, historical events or the day of a planned event.
How to Use
Required Input
Only one input is needed: a date (day, month, year). Enter your birth date or any date you are curious about. Click Calculate; the result is shown with both the Turkish and English day name.
Calculation Method
The tool uses Zeller's formula or JavaScript's built-in Date.getDay() method to calculate what day of the week a date falls on in milliseconds. The Gregorian calendar is used for all dates.
The English Nursery Rhyme for Your Birth Day
The English nursery rhyme "Monday's Child" amusingly describes personality traits according to the day of birth. It has no scientific basis but has been recited for centuries.

- Finding the day of important dates (wedding anniversary, graduation, historical events)
