Choosing a name for a baby is an extremely important and responsible matter, because it largely determines future character crumbs and even his fate. There are different names for boys, and we will try to figure it out together which one is right for your little one.

Scientists have long established that using a name you can correct negative traits character, or, conversely, aggravate them. By naming your baby incorrectly, you can direct his life into a tragic scenario. How to avoid all these mistakes and make the right and informed choice - read the article.

There are many theories regarding exactly how a person’s name and fate are connected, and how a name can influence life. I bring to your attention the most interesting and worthy of attention.

  • The theory of public opinion.

We all live in society, surrounded by people who have thoughts and opinions about anything. These opinions tend to vary depending on the country, social group and even time.

Hearing a person’s name, society is able to endow him with certain character traits in advance, as well as form an opinion about him in advance. If a person is constantly ascribed certain qualities throughout his life, they become truly inherent to him, whether he wants it or not.

For example, towards a boy named Nero (Roman emperor, known for his atrocities) or Adolf (everyone knows who the association is with, right), people’s attitude will be deliberately wary, wary and even hostile. And to a boy named Vanya - good-natured and disposed, like a positive hero folk tales. When addressing Isaac, people will assume in advance Jewish origin, and treat the child knowingly based on your prejudices.

  • Theory of emotions and sound.

A child hears his name several times a day from birth. As he gets older, he will hear it more and more often. Each name is a set of certain sounds of different timbres and pitches.

All sounds have different effects on the human brain, causing certain emotions. Some sound melodious and euphonious, contributing to the formation of a calm and gentle character, for example, Nikolai, Alexey, Mikhail.

Others, on the contrary, seem to be drumming on the brain: Dmitry, Robert, Taras. This is a prerequisite for the formation of a tough character and unshakable self-confidence.

Thus, each name is capable of influencing the fate of a child, shaping certain character qualities in him.

How to choose a name

Of course, there are no and cannot be universal recommendations regarding what name to name your baby. However, there are universal rules that you can follow to narrow down your choice among thousands of names, and ultimately make the only right decision.

  • Rule No. 1. The name must be combined with the child’s surname and patronymic.

A person will hear such combinations quite often throughout his life: in kindergarten and school it is customary to address students by their first and last names. And in adult life, at work, a person most often hears him being called by his first name and patronymic.

Thus, these combinations should be pronounced without difficulty and should not cause difficulties for the speaker. Otherwise, the child will constantly tense internally in anticipation that his name will once again be distorted.

What difficulties may there be in pronunciation:

  1. many consonants at the junction of first name and last name, first name and patronymic. For example, the unsuccessful combination is Kanziberg Grigory or Alexander Dmitrievich; Kanziberg Oleg or Anton Dmitrievich sounds more successful.
  2. combinations that are too long, for example, Innokenty Aleksandrovich Zagrebelny is unsuccessful, Ivan Aleksandrovich Zagrebelny sounds successful.
  • Rule No. 2. The name must be combined with the child’s nationality and citizenship.

The name should not be dissonant with the surname and patronymic based on nationality and affiliation with a particular country. So, Ivanov Tamerlan, Vasiliev Teimuraz or Smirnov John, Popov Daniel sound very strange.

  • Rule No. 3. The name must have diminutives.

Cradling a little baby in your arms, you want to call him, for example, Levushka, and not Lev, Sashenka, and not Alexander, Dimochka, and not Dmitry.

And this is natural; throughout our lives it helps us convey the full range of emotions when communicating with a person.

What not to call a boy

  • Bad idea No. 1. Name it after a relative who died a violent death or suffered a difficult fate.

No matter how good your intentions are, no matter how good and worthy a person the deceased was, and no matter how skeptic you may be, pay attention to the following.

Scientists have noticed a pattern according to which children named after relatives who died tragically often have an unfortunate fate and difficulty defining themselves in life.

How to explain this phenomenon - psycho-emotional connections, ancestral energy or mysticism - everyone decides for himself. You may not believe in such matters, but is it worth risking your baby's future when there are so many other beautiful names to choose from?

  • Bad idea #2: Give it a creepily original but strange and unpronounceable name.

It seems to you that this is fresh and unusual, but a child with his own name can live: go to a children's group, build a career and personal life. I’m not sure that in the future a person named Appolinarius, Evgrafiy, Dormedont, Callistratus, Polycarpius, etc. will thank you.

In kindergarten and school, children with such names always endure ridicule, withdraw into themselves, become embittered and unsociable. Why does the baby need such tests out of the blue?

  • Bad Idea #3: Naming it after a historical event or political figure.

We all know such male names as Vladilen (Vladimir Ilyich Lenin), Kim (Communist Youth International), Lyublen (Love Lenin), Stalen (Stalin, Lenin). At the time of the revolution, they seemed trendy and relevant.

However, time has passed, ideals have changed, famous historical events and personalities are condemned, and everything is no longer so rosy, fun and easy. And people who were named in a certain way remain attached to the images of past years and events throughout their lives.

It is much easier when a person is responsible only for himself and his actions than for some historical figures, to whose actions he has nothing to do, but is forced to associate with them.

Names for boys by month according to the church calendar

Believers know that every person comes into this world for a reason and is born in a particular month for a reason. The date of birth of a baby means a lot, in particular, a newborn is assigned by heaven a protector from above, a saint, a guardian angel who will protect him throughout his life.

Our ancestors did not invent anything unnecessary, and when choosing a name for a newborn, they turned to the holy calendar - church calendar with the names of saints.

Nowadays, the tradition of the calendar has been simplified, and it is quite acceptable to use calendars by month, when each month of the year corresponds to several names of saints, from which you can choose the one you like.

The church calendar with Orthodox names by month according to the calendar looks like this.

Beautiful Russian names

Traditional Russian male names are associated with masculinity and strength of character.

With such a name, the boy will certainly grow up comfortably, and his peers will easily remember the baby’s name. Beautiful Russian name goes well with Russian surnames and is not capable of causing unnecessary associations.

As a rule, Russian names for boys are distinguished by Greek or Roman origin, which is due to historically early contacts Ancient Rus' with Byzantium.


Popular modern names for boys


Rare and beautiful

IN last years There has been a particularly acute tendency to choose an unusual, rare and beautiful name for a child. Young mothers want their baby to be exceptional and special from birth because of his name.

Let's take a closer look at unusual, rare and beautiful names for boys.


Old Russian

Such names pose a certain danger for the baby, and we have already talked about it. Nowadays old Russian names for boys they sound too extravagant.

Children are cruel creatures, and a baby with an unusual name may be subject to ridicule and attacks from his peers in kindergarten and school, which will make him withdrawn and unsociable.

Therefore, I urge you to think very carefully and weigh the pros and cons of giving your baby an old Russian colorful name in order to amuse your pride and show everyone that you have imagination. I am convinced that there are many other ways to manifest it without making it difficult for the child throughout his life.

However, we will list the currently popular Old Russian and Old Slavonic names for boys, and also let’s figure out what they mean:

Bronislav – defending glory;

Vseslav - famous, famous;

Dobromil - kind, dear;

Milorad – sweet, joyful;

Miroslav - glorifying the world;

Svyatopolk - at the head of the sacred army;

Yaropolk - at the head of the solar army;

Kuzma - organizes the world;

Thomas is a twin;

Foka - from the sea;

Lazarus is the one who was helped by God;

Fedot - long-awaited;

Potap - from another country;

Nazar – dedicated himself to God;

Luka – light;

Laurel is the name of the tree.

Rules for choosing a name by season

According to psychological theory, people born at the same time of year have similar character traits, temperament and personality traits. In addition, such people have similar positive and negative qualities.

Knowing this, you can correct and strengthen weak points in your character, as well as soften and neutralize the influence of undesirable strong properties.

For example, boys born in the summer are united by good nature and easy disposition. However, there is also back side: they are capricious, emotionally unstable and weak character. To add firmness and perseverance to the personality, it is recommended to call such babies with sonorous names, for example, Dmitry, German, Kirill. It’s a bad idea to give your baby a gentle and soft name, such as Mikhail, Nikolai, Savely.

On the contrary, winter boys demonstrate an excess of stubbornness, rebellion and determination. To balance the character, it is reasonable to balance such qualities with a soft melodic name, such as Ilya, Elisha, Maxim. It will not work, and will only worsen the situation, if you name the winter baby Grigory, Victor, Peter.

Spring creates kind, calm and sympathetic, but soft-bodied and spineless boys. If nothing is done, these people can grow up to be mama's boys and henpecked people. Therefore, one cannot do without a firm and tough name, for example, Alexander, Boris. Leonidas and Moses won't do at all.

Autumn pleases us with balance harmonious personalities, therefore, such a child can be called whatever you like, nothing needs to be adjusted here.

Names are another aspect of fashion. For different generations, their choice was determined by completely different criteria. However, like the entire fashion world, the fashion for names is characterized by a kind of cycle.

Tell me what is your name...

Fate, inner self, rock and signs - according to astrologers, numerologists, as well as numerous Internet sites, all these confusing concepts are extremely influenced by a person’s name. And despite the fact that some consider this nonsense, and others - the truth, it is difficult to argue that, in the end, there is something here. It’s not for nothing that sometimes a name seems completely inappropriate for a person. So how could it be if it were just a word? Everyone goes through life with him, and it is he who is asked first of all when meeting someone. This means that it is obviously believed that with the help of a name you can get to know a person better.

Origin

Modern male names are an assortment of ancient and modern, foreign influences and Slavic motifs. So, when choosing what to name a child, they now use the most unexpected options. Apparently, right now a generational change is taking place, in which there is a kind of fashionable revolution, a return to the roots. The styles of past centuries begin to appear in the clothes, and in the names - something ancient, half-forgotten. Now it’s not so difficult to meet kids on the street running to their mother’s call “Kiryan!” or "Elisha!"

The beauty of sounds

It is difficult to say how to determine whether a name is beautiful. After all, this is a matter of taste. But at one moment one of them becomes more popular, more famous, begins to be associated with aesthetics and grace, and in the case of male names also with strength and masculinity. An inexplicable phenomenon!

So, about five years ago the name Maxim turned out to be the most beautiful, and the rest of the modern male names lost in this battle. Newborn boys are often called Maxims to this day. This is the third most popular choice in Russia.

The most unusual beautiful male names

Modern resources allow you to gain open access to information on almost any issue. Thanks to them, it’s not so difficult to choose original male names from thousands of options. Modern Russian young couples are not limited to the banal choice in favor of Ivanov and Petrov; when thinking about what to name the boy, they strive for mystery in sound.

So, the rarest and most beautiful names of men of our time are given below:

  • Christian;

    Mstislav;

  • Eric.

Whatever the choice from this list, the ideal option is when the name is combined with a surname and patronymic, which emphasize its sonority. Exclusivity in something always imposes certain obligations on its owner. IN in this case: compliance with your extraordinary name and wearing it with dignity, willingness to face misunderstanding from others.

Closer to the heart

Despite the fact that unusualness usually closely borders beauty, which was literally confirmed by the previous section, we should not forget that simplicity has its own sophistication. Russian male names are no worse than foreign ones. Modern girls choose Mikhailov and Konstantinov instead of Edwards and Anvars, feeling in them security that stands above pathos. By “Russian” we mean not origin, but prevalence.

Among the names whose popularity has not faded over the years:

    Alexander;

Alexander and Dmitry are a separate conversation; These have long been very popular beautiful male names in the vastness of Russia. Modern boys, boys and men wear them with pleasure, just as nobles, princes and kings did back in the 19th century.

What's in your name?

Every time, looking anywhere for male names, beautiful, modern, Russian - it doesn’t matter, most of all the searcher is interested not so much in a specific list, but in the meaning. It's always interesting to find out the secret hidden behind a combination of letters.

Modern male names and their meanings correlate with each other quite clearly: for example, Alexander, already mentioned in this article, is translated as “protector.” It’s not for nothing that the famous commander immediately comes to mind. Interestingly, the name Alexey has the same etymology. As you can see, the common root “alex” is responsible for the semantic energy, although in short forms it is precisely this that is lost, leaving much nicer versions of Sasha and Lesha.

How indicative this example is: modern realities force beautiful male names to simplify and shorten, all their majesty is lost. Sometimes this comes in handy, but I wouldn’t want the origins to be forgotten one day and the power to be lost forever.

Modern male names: list

So, the young couple is waiting for a miracle to happen - the birth of a child, in this case a son. She begins to look for suitable male names in all sources of information. List (Russian modern dictionaries fortunately, they are full of such “databases”), the choice is usually extremely large, and each source tries to classify them in its own way.

Some (even most) of them present lists where male names, beautiful, modern, Russian - all in one listing, but distributed alphabetically.

Below, in turn, is a list where the classification is made by meaning. After all, of course, every parent wants their child to have exceptional qualities.

    "Winner":

    • Andronik;

    "Defender":

    • Alexander;

    • Bronislaw;

    • William;

    "Strong, mighty":

    • Valentine;

    "Great, glorious":

    • Vladislav;

      Vyacheslav;

    • Sevastyan;

      Stanislav.

    "Bold, Brave at Heart":

    • Leopold;

    "Wise, reasonable":

  • "Noble, generous, peaceful":

Meanings of the most popular names for men

In the previous paragraph, male names were considered: the list (Russian modern ones for the most part, foreign ones for the lesser part) pleased with new, extraordinary combinations of sounds and long-known ones, loved in the vastness of our homeland. In Russia, the most used male names over the past ten years are:

  • Alexander;

What does each of them mean?

Alexander

Alexander was and remains the most famous male name. It is popular not only in the post-Soviet countries, but also abroad. Many famous personalities bore this name: Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, Alexander the Great.

Its origin is Greek. The name is made up of the phrase “I protect people.” Alexandras are always persistent and strong individuals, real men with a reputation for fair people.

Dmitriy

The name Dmitry also comes from Greece. The sunny country called the young men this way in honor of the goddess of fertility Demeter.

Men named Dmitry have a strong will to live, they are kind at heart, although they sometimes commit harsh acts. Loyalty is Dmitry’s hallmark throughout his life’s journey. Sometimes they are too talkative, which interferes with achieving goals, but natural perseverance wins, so they never stop if they really want to achieve something.

Maksim

The name Maxim is distinguished among the three most popular male names by its origin - it is Latin. Translated from this language - “greatest”.

Maxims are often altruists, they love people and believe in them - they want to see something good in every person, which is why they sometimes suffer. At the same time, such men are strong in character, persistent and stubborn, they are not afraid of responsibility, and they make good and caring fathers. By the way, children are loved in principle, both their own and those of others.

Conclusion

To believe or not to believe that a name has sacred power is everyone’s choice. But even the most cynical person on earth is unlikely to be able to call it just a word.

Male names of any time are amazing in that, no matter how majestic their full form sounds, they always keep a short, diminutive, for those closest to them. She reveals sensuality and softness, without which even the sternest man would be nowhere.
