Hooray! An ultrasound scan 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 address her belly in a very specific way, and that means it's time to call her "paunchy". And although the name does not paint 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 get together 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, character of a person. For example, when they called their son Lazarus, the adults believed that God himself would help him in life. And Fadeev's parents hoped that their children would become successful and deserve praise in everything. They expected protection from Alexei, and courage from Brave.

Name is the protection and basis of personality development

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

And the other was true and secret. He was carefully hidden, especially from strangers. It was believed that the enemy, who learned the secret of your name, will gain power over your fate, life and death.

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

It is said that the name of the ship determines the success of its voyage. Therefore, parents often name the baby, taking into account the possible energetic influence of the Universe.

From the point of view of psychology, the name is one of the main indicators of personality. So the child can become aware of his gender, 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 can be not 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. The consonance of the full name. Agree, the full name "Romeo Emelyanovich Sisev" will always draw undue attention to the child. “Gremislav Abdelhakimovich Eldarkhanov” not even every teacher can pronounce. And Prince Mikhailovich Zhuk, quite likely, having matured, will want to change his name. Therefore, if the family name 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 guidelines here. First you need to take into account the nationality of the father. For example, if the dad is Armenian Gegham, then it is better to name the boy accordingly. Agree, the combination "Avetis Gegamovich" sounds strong in comparison with the combination "Vasily Gegamovich". Another tip: be guided by the length of the middle name. For bulky patronymics, short names are better, and vice versa. For example, "Lev Konstantinovich" sounds more melodic than "Innokenty Konstantinovich". Also, do not give the baby a "name" that ends with the letter that begins with the father's name. For example, "Vadim Maksimovich". Also, think about how to avoid the accumulation of vowels and consonants at the junction of the name and patronymic. Since there is a high probability that in a conversation people will involuntarily distort them. An example of a not entirely successful combination: "Petr Vladimirovich". But combinations play well when there are beautiful sound coincidences or the names begin with the same letter: "Andrey Alekseevich", "Elisey Evgenievich".
  3. Time and place fit... Nobody condemns the parents' love of popular TV products, but Batman or Nolik will hardly feel comfortable in Michurino village. Edward and Barack in the Slavic environment will also look special. And Tyrrion or Mason in puberty will not collect autographs, but will carry bruises home. Therefore, think carefully about your decision before calling the boy too unusual a name.
  4. Transformation. Almost all names have derived variations. They are transformed into diminutive forms or nicknames. And the latter can be offensive. This must be taken into account so that the child is not then teased. Please note that mom will be able to call Maxim “Maksyusha or Masei”, and friends - “Max” or “Maksyukha”. It's more difficult with Gleb. Parents will call him: "Gleb". And peers will immediately twist: "Khlebushka".
  5. The names are "unisex". Psychologists recommend to parents: "When naming your son, avoid variants with a vague gender reference." 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 surname is not inclined. For example, surnames like "Viligura" or "Katz" do not give an idea of ​​who is their bearer - 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, suppress the exceptional masculine traits in the character.

In Russia, there is a tradition of naming a child after relatives. For example, as 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 experience of the ancestors and repeat their fate. And other moms and dads insist: the naming by the generic principle is an additional protection.

It is better not to name your son after a relative who was overtaken by a brazen, painful death or who had problems with the law. Psychologists also advise against taking the father's name. Otherwise, little San Sanych may not grow loving son and an assistant, but an irritable and insecure eternal paternal rival.

Chasing fashion: how Icaram and Mason live

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

Under the councils, 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, Mason, Cruzov, Rogelio and Guillermo were registered.

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

Today, there is a tendency to return to everyday life. Old Slavic names... And among them there are unusually beautiful names of boys. For example, in 1990, only seven Platons were registered throughout Russia. And in 2015, this male name was already included in the top 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, they are stubborn and strong.

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

But in solid voiced paired consonants prevail in the company with a snarling letter "P". These are the names of Yegor, Grigory, Dmitry.

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

Novels are born in February, and Stamps in July

If the parents cannot come to a common decision on what to call their son, then you can resort to using the calendar. Observations of old-timers show that children born in different time 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 feel comfortable if their names are Danila, Styopa, Nikita or David. For summer good options- Sergey, Kostya, Nazar, Mark, Matvey or Pasha.

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

Naming by number and horoscope

Even adults resort to the help of numerology. For this, the number of the baby's date of birth is calculated and the name corresponding to this number is selected in the special literature. Also, adults often pay attention to the compatibility with the baby's zodiac sign. And they even look at the combination with the names of the parents themselves, so that on energy level avoid conflicts and misunderstandings.

The most common name on the planet, which is endowed with more than 300 million men, is Muhammad. In Muslim culture, it is customary to call all the firstborn. But in Moscow, according to the capital's civil registry office, since 1991, Alexander has always been in the lead. In 2015, Muscovites also often registered boys as Maxims, Artems, Mikhailov, Daniils.

The current society dictates to us the rules, and we must follow them so that our child is comfortable to be in it and to be realized as a person.

But this method is suitable only for those who are not looking for difficult paths, who want to keep up with the times and follow the "fashion".

As for people who approach the choice of a name very scrupulously, perhaps even philosophically, they think about this question long before the birth of their little one. Someone is very fond of their grandparents and wants to honor their memory, calling them the name of a son or daughter, while someone is very religious and follows Christian canons. But the bulk of people have already moved away from family and other traditions and in choosing a name relies solely on their tastes.

If you are an esthete and enjoy the sound of speech, then the following information will upset you. V modern world people have no time to listen to long names like Maximillian or Juliet. Otherwise, be prepared that the child " blue bloods"Will be called Max or Zhulka.

There are completely unique cases when parents are so crazy about calling a child an unusual name that they do not even think about his gender. This is a gross mistake. Be prepared that your girl Zhenya may have complexes. Therefore, it is better to know in advance the sex of the future baby.

Creative parents sometimes overdo it so much that they give their children double complex names: Sophia-Bettina, etc. All the same, in life, as a rule, a person is called some one name, while the other remains in the passport.

The desire to call your little one iPhone, Apple or some kind of Lucifer is just crazy and comments are unnecessary here.

How fashion trends are created for names
