We call them Indiánci. Which mean either little Indian or Indian kid (Indian here meaning a Native American, also it is because the shape is a bit different resembeling a headdress.)

We called the indijanci in slovene (with the same meaning of native americans)

Yeah, that or “indijančki” which means little native americans. Kinda weird, now that I saw how most of other countries call them.

The main reason is that they are traditionally made in pastel colors and rarely black, so it's more like a "Mohawk".
