A 25th anniversary is called a Silver Jubilee. The term comes from the tradition of gifting silver items to mark 25 years of marriage, reign, or service. Here is the complete list of all jubilee/anniversary names.
The word 'Jubilee' comes from the Hebrew word 'Yovel' (יובל) meaning the blast of a ram's horn (shofar). In ancient Israel, every 50th year was declared a Jubilee — debts were cancelled and slaves freed. The concept evolved into celebrating major anniversaries.
