Is there a table or list of rules on how to write the proper name (possessive?) adjective of a word, based on case as well?

For example,

Пашины родители

Пашиным родителям

Пашиной матери

Юрины дни рождения

Юриному отцу

ЮринЫми руками

и.т.д...

    To form such an adjective, replace the final -а or -я of the name with -ин: Паша - Пашин, Галя - Галин. Declension rules are the same as any hard-stem adjective e.g. новый: нового - Пашиного, новому -Пашиному, etc except for the singular nominative which doesn't have -ый: новый - Пашин.

    Oh, and the plural nominative is also a bit exceptional: -ы instead of -ые: новые - Пашины

    Obviously, as for all Russian adjectives, the inanimate accusative matches the nominative in both singular and plural.

    Not sure why this question was marked as "too broad". It sounds quite specific to me.
