  • the ancestral tradition of your family;
  • church calendar;
  • a combination of the child’s first name, patronymic and last name;
  • fashion trends
  • meaning of a man's name.

But at the same time, you should always pay attention to how the chosen name will be combined with the patronymic and surname. It is important to choose a harmonious and harmonious combination of name and patronymic, so that later, in adult life, the baby did not experience any difficulties.

  • Sasha;
  • Valya;
  • Zhenya.

It is important that from childhood the boy does not experience psychological discomfort due to the fact that he is confused with a girl. This happens in cases where the child's last name ends with the letter o. Thus, Sasha Sidorov will feel more confident than Sasha Sidorenko, who in kindergarten and school will have to constantly clarify during roll call that he is a boy and not a girl.

How to name a male child correctly

Parents should remember how important the choice of a male name is. If a daughter can eventually change her surname by getting married, then the son will bear his first name, patronymic and surname all his life. For a man, a harmonious combination of his first name, patronymic and last name is very important. This helps him quickly find his place in life and gain confidence in his own abilities.

How to choose a name for a boy so that it will help him in his future adult life, reflect his individual traits and help in his personal development? Parents may use different criteria when making their choice. The most important thing is to avoid ambiguity and irrelevance.

The first name should be harmoniously combined with the patronymic and surname. This will allow the boy, over time, to realize all the responsibility that is placed on him by the family as a successor to the family and will help to cultivate in himself the character traits necessary for a man.

In honor of a relative

Often the choice is made in favor of the name of a famous grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle or other relative in the family. Thus, parents want their baby to repeat the success of the one after whom he is named. However, a child can inherit, along with the name of a relative, in addition to his positive qualities, and negative aspects, repeating the fate of his ancestor.

When deciding to name a son in honor of their relative, the mother and father should remember that it is not recommended:

  • naming a child after a person who passed away early is considered bad omen and inheritance of the same fate;
  • name your son in honor of a still living relative, since the name can attract not only positive, but also negative characteristics this person's child;
  • naming boys after their fathers, as this will burden the child’s psyche and impose on him the responsibility of being just like his father.

If there is a tradition in the family of calling the eldest son by a certain name, then in this case you can not pay attention to the fact that the child and the father may have the same name, since in this case the name will carry the generic meaning of “seniority”.

Selection by last name and patronymic

If a parent finds it difficult to choose a name for his son, then he can select male names for a specific patronymic and surname. In this case, it is necessary to select a short middle name for the long middle name. male name, and to short – long.

If the child’s father’s name is Konstantin, Vyacheslav or Stanislav, then it is better to choose a short name for the son:

  • Peter;
  • Oleg;
  • Ilya;
  • Gleb;
  • Yuri;
  • Igor, etc.

For short middle names, such as Petrovich, Lvovich, Ilyich, long names are suitable:

  • Alexey;
  • Alexander;
  • Anatoly;
  • Evgeniy;
  • Maxim;
  • Valery.

When choosing a male name suitable for the patronymic and surname, one should proceed from the combination of vowels and consonants. To get a harmonious combination of initials, you should choose a name so that its letters are not often repeated in the middle name.

You should also avoid consonant combinations famous personalities, type:

  • Vladimir Ilyich;
  • Leonid Ilyich;
  • Nikita Sergeevich, etc.

Names and patronymics that sound similar to each other do not combine well for pronunciation and are poorly remembered by people. You should pay attention to ensure that the patronymic does not begin with the same letter that ends the male name. This combination of sounds is very difficult to pronounce correctly.

It is important that the name be native to the patronymic language culture, so that inappropriate combinations such as Peter Sidorov or John Ivanov do not arise.

The most fashionable names for boys in the coming year

We focus on nationality and traditions

When trying to choose a name for their son in the spirit of the child’s nationality, parents should not forget that the baby will have to go to kindergarten and to school, where he will communicate with children of other nationalities and cultures.

Therefore, his name should not be too difficult to pronounce in Russian, which is the state language of the Russian Federation. Otherwise, the baby may have problems communicating with peers.

Other options

It is not necessary to adhere to the above methods of choosing a name for your son. Perhaps parents will have other options for choosing a male name for their child. The most important thing is that both parents agree with the choice, and that the name is consistent with the patronymic and surname.

Conclusion

The fate of the child largely depends on the correct choice and euphony of the combination of first name, patronymic and last name. Parents should remember this, because by choosing a name for their son, they determine his future life.

Russian language belongs to the group of Slavic languages. However, many Russian names by their origin they are not originally Russian. They are borrowed from Greek language along with the Christian religion. Before this, Russians had names that reflected various characteristics and qualities of people, their physical disabilities, and names that reflected the order of birth of children in the family. There were common names such as Wolf, Cat, Sparrow, Birch, First, Tretyak, Bolshoi, Menshoi, Zhdan. A reflection of these names is observed in modern Russian surnames Tretyakov, Nezhdanov, Menshov, etc.

With the introduction of Christianity in Rus', all the old Russian names were gradually replaced by church names that came to Rus' from Byzantium. Among them, in addition to the Greek names themselves, there were ancient Roman, Hebrew, Syrian, Egyptian names, each of which in its own way native language reflected a certain meaning, but when borrowed it was used only as a proper name, and not as a word denoting something.

By the 18th-19th centuries Old Russian names were already completely forgotten, and Christian names largely changed their appearance, adapting to the peculiarities of Russian pronunciation. Thus, the name Diomede was transformed into the name Demid, Jeremiah - Eremey, etc.

After the October Socialist Revolution, names associated with the new ideology became widespread: Revmira (peace revolution), Diamara (dialectical materialism); names reflecting the first stages of industrialization: Electrina, Elevator, Diesel, Ram (revolution, electrification, mechanization); names read in foreign novels: Alfred, Rudolf, Arnold; names based on the names of flowers: Lily, Rose, Aster.

Since the 1930s, such familiar ones have become widespread again. Russian names like Masha, Vladimir, Seryozha, i.e. the names closest to the Russian people are used. But this return to the old names does not at all mean a return to all the names of the church calendar, most of which remained unaccepted by the Russian nation.

Russian modern male names

Modern Russian name book

The modern Russian name book includes Russian names that are currently used in Russia.

In addition to the original Russian names in Russian name book included Jewish, Greek, Roman (Latin), Scandinavian and Persian names, which were adapted on the territory of Russia and have long been perceived as Russian.

Most Russian names that are currently used in Russia are not originally Russian in origin. They were borrowed from the Greek language along with the Christian religion and came to Russia from Byzantium.

By the 18th-19th centuries, Old Russian names were almost completely forgotten, and the imported Christian names were changed taking into account the peculiarities of Russian pronunciation (Aquilina - Akulina, Juliania - Ulyana, Artemy - Artyom, Daniil - Danila, Jeremiah - Eremey).

Where did the Byzantine (Greek) names that became Russian come from?

The Greeks also collected in their name book best names all the peoples with whom they maintained trade and cultural relations.

In addition to names of ancient Greek origin, they used ancient Roman and Hebrew names, and also used ancient Persian, ancient Egyptian, Chaldean, Syrian and Babylonian names.

If we consider names by meaning, then almost all names Greek and Roman origin talk about positive (desirable) character traits and appearance.

Hebrew names different from Greek and Roman. Most Hebrew names are associated with the name of God. For example, Gabriel is my strength god! Daniel is God's judgment.

Currently name books of any country includes not only the original names of its people, but also borrowed names. This is the result of cultural and trade exchange between peoples, the mixing of cultures, and also a consequence of the migration of peoples.

The name book includes the name, the origin of the name and the meaning of the name.

Attention!

Sites and blogs have appeared on the Internet that are not our official sites, but use our name. Be careful. Fraudsters use our name, our email addresses for their mailings, information from our books and our websites. Using our name, they lure people to various magic forums and deceive (they give advice and recommendations that can harm, or lure money for performing magic rituals, making amulets and teaching magic).

On our websites we do not provide links to magic forums or websites of magic healers. We do not participate in any forums. We do not give consultations over the phone, we do not have time for this.

Pay attention! We do not engage in healing or magic, we do not make or sell talismans and amulets. We do not engage in magical and healing practices at all, we have not offered and do not offer such services.

The only direction of our work is correspondence consultations in written form, training through an esoteric club and writing books.

Sometimes people write to us that they saw information on some websites that we allegedly deceived someone - they took money for healing sessions or making amulets. We officially declare that this is slander and not true. In our entire life, we have never deceived anyone. On the pages of our website and in the club materials, we always write that you need to be an honest, decent person. For us, an honest name is not an empty phrase.

People who write slander about us are guided by the basest motives - envy, greed, they have black souls. The times have come when slander pays well. Now many people are ready to sell their homeland for three kopecks, and it is even easier to slander decent people. People who write slander do not understand that they are seriously worsening their karma, worsening their fate and the fate of their loved ones. It is pointless to talk with such people about conscience and faith in God. They do not believe in God, because a believer will never make a deal with his conscience, will never engage in deception, slander, or fraud.

There are a lot of scammers, pseudo-magicians, charlatans, envious people, people without conscience and honor who are hungry for money. The police and other regulatory authorities are not yet able to cope with the growing influx of “Cheating for profit” madness.

Therefore, please be careful!

And also our blogs:

Hooray! An ultrasound showed who lives under my mother’s heart. “Son,” you are touched. “Heir!”, the future father rejoices. This is the moment when a woman begins to refer to her belly quite specifically, and that means it’s time to call it “belly.” And although it is not the name that makes a person, often disputes from the series “Vladlen, Dionysus or Vanya” lead to the fact that the baby remains a “baby” until the very moment of receiving a birth certificate. It is right in such a situation to gather for a family council. And you need to go there, armed with information about what rare and beautiful names for boys.

Our ancestors believed that the name determines the fate and character of a person. For example, by calling their son Lazarus, adults believed that God himself would help him in life. And the Fadeevs’ parents hoped that their children would become successful and deserve praise in everything. They expected protection from Alexei, and courage from Brave.

The name is protection and the basis for personal development

In Indian tribes it was customary to give a person two names. One of them is false. It became public and was determined as the child grew up, when he showed any of his special qualities or skills. For example, "Keen Eye".

And the other was true and secret. It was carefully hidden, especially from strangers. It was believed that the enemy, who learned the secret of your naming, would gain power over your destiny, life and death.

In Christian families even today, during the sacrament of baptism, the child is given a second name, which is recommended not to be advertised to strangers. The clergyman determines it according to the church calendar, taking into account the baby’s date of birth and the Orthodox name book. So, the child is named according to the calendar. That is, in honor of a certain saint, whose day coincides with the day the child is born or falls on the eighth or fortieth day from birth.

They say that the name of a ship determines the success of its voyage. That’s why parents often name their baby, taking into account the possible energetic influence of the Universe.

From a psychological point of view, a name is one of the main indicators of personality. This way the child can realize his gender identity, isolate himself from other people and take the path of independent development. Even new generations remember their ancestors based on their names.

How to name your son: 5 rules

All conversations regarding the influence of a person’s naming on his fate need not be taken seriously. But when choosing a beautiful and unusual name for a baby, you still need to take into account certain, quite mundane, nuances. There are five basic rules to follow when naming your son.

  1. Consonance with full name. Agree, the full name “Romeo Emelyanovich Sisev” will always attract unnecessary attention to the child. Not every teacher will say “Gremislav Abdelkhakimovich Eldarkhanov.” And Prince Mikhailovich Zhuk, quite likely, having matured, will want to change his name. Therefore, if family surname is not distinguished by elegance, it is better to find an unpretentious, simple name for the baby. For example, “Vadim Mikhailovich Zhuk” will look much more advantageous.
  2. Compatibility with patronymic. There are several recommendations here. First you need to take into account the nationality of the father. For example, if the father is Armenian Gegham, then it is better to name the boy accordingly. Agree, the combination “Avetis Geghamovich” sounds strong in comparison with the combination “Vasily Geghamovich”. Another tip: focus on the length of the middle name. Better suited for bulky middle names short names, and vice versa. For example, “Lev Konstantinovich” sounds more melodic than “Innokenty Konstantinovich”. Also, you should not give your baby a “name” that ends with the letter that the father’s name begins with. For example, “Vadim Maksimovich”. Also think about avoiding the accumulation of vowels and consonants at the junction of the name and patronymic. Because there is a high probability that in a conversation people will involuntarily distort them. An example of a not entirely successful combination: “Peter Vladimirovich.” But combinations play well when there are beautiful sound matches or names begin with the same letter: “Andrey Alekseevich”, “Elisey Evgenievich”.
  3. Correspondence to time and place. No one condemns parents’ love for popular television products, but it’s unlikely that Batman or Nolik will feel comfortable in the village of Michurino. Edward and Barak will also look special in the Slavic environment. And Tirrion or Mason during puberty will not collect autographs, but will carry bruises home. Therefore, think carefully about your decision before naming your boy with a name that is too unusual.
  4. Transformation. Almost all names have derived variations. They are transformed into diminutive forms or nicknames. And the latter may turn out to be offensive. This must be taken into account so that the child is not teased later. Please note that mom will be able to call Maxim “Maksyusha or Masya”, and friends - “Max” or “Maksyukha”. It’s more difficult with Gleb. Parents will address him: “Glebushka.” And peers will immediately twist it: “Bread.”
  5. Unisex names. Psychologists recommend to parents: “When naming your son, avoid options with vague gender references.” For example, these are the names Zhenya or Valya, which are suitable for both girls and boys. This is especially important if the child’s last name is not declined. For example, surnames like “Viligura” or “Katz” do not give an idea of ​​who their bearer is - a guy or a girl. Therefore, “Sasha Shuvalov” is still an acceptable option, but “Sasha Koval” is alas. This combination can provoke problems with the child’s self-identification and suppress exceptional masculine traits in character.

In Russia, the tradition of naming a child after relatives remains. For example, like a great-grandfather. This custom is a matter of debate. Some young parents are against him, because they believe that the baby can absorb the negative experiences of his ancestors and repeat their fate. And other mothers and fathers insist: naming according to the generic principle is additional protection.

It is better not to name your son after a relative who suffered a brazen, painful death or who had problems with the law. Psychologists also advise not to take your father's name. Otherwise, little San Sanych may grow up not as a loving son and helper, but as an irritable and insecure eternal fatherly competitor.

In pursuit of fashion: how do Ikars and Masons live?

Parents want their son to have a rare, energetically strong and fashionable name. But when considering unusual names for boys, it is important not to go too far. Fashion is a changeable thing. It is enough to look at history. Remember how, based on the events of 1917, the boys were named October, Revo, Vladlen.

Under the Soviets, Perkosrak was popular (in honor of the launch of the first space rocket), Dazdraperma (in honor of May Day).

Subsequently, after the collapse of the USSR, there was a wave of naming children based on TV series. Enrique, the Masons, the Cruzes, Rogelio, and Guillermo were registered.

But practice shows that after a few years all the tricky options not only lose relevance, but even look funny. But traditional names in our culture like Nikolai, Vladimir, Oleg and Alexei always sound decent.

Today there is a tendency for Old Church Slavonic names to come back into use. And among them there are unusually beautiful names for boys. For example, in 1990, only seven Platons were registered throughout Russia. And in 2015, this male name was already among the ten most popular in the country.

What are men called: interesting facts

Male names are divided into soft and hard. In the first case, boys grow up calm and docile. In the second - stubborn and strong.

Soft ones include those in which there are many vowels, as well as quiet sonants - th, r, l, m, n. This is Ilya, Benjamin, Mikhail.

But in hard ones, voiced paired consonants predominate in the company of the growling letter “P”. These are the names of Yegor, Gregory, Dmitry.

There are also neutral options that endow their owner with moderate determination and wisdom. This applies to Arkady, Andrey, Pavel.

Romans are born in February, and Marks are born in July.

If parents are unable to come to general decision As for what to name your son, you can resort to the help of a calendar. Observations by old-timers show that children born in different times years, completely different options are suitable.

It is better to name winter boys by choosing from the following list: Roman, Anatoly, Peter, Semyon, Arseny, Ivan.

Spring children are comfortable if their names are Danila, Styopa, Nikita or David. For summer good options- Sergey, Kostya, Nazar, Mark, Matvey or Pasha.

A autumn baby will be in harmony with the name Timofey, German, Fedor or Anton. There are even special layouts where options suitable for naming are listed by month.

Naming by number and horoscope

Even adults resort to the help of numerology. To do this, the number of the baby’s date of birth is calculated and a name corresponding to this number is selected in special literature. Also, adults often pay attention to compatibility with the baby’s zodiac sign. And they even look at the combination with the names of the parents themselves in order to avoid conflicts and misunderstandings at the energetic level.

The most common name on the planet, given to more than 300 million men, is Muhammad. In Muslim culture, this is the customary name for all first-born children. But in Moscow, according to the capital's civil registry office, Alexander has always been in the lead since 1991. In 2015, Muscovites also often registered boys as Maxims, Artems, Mikhails, and Daniils.
