"What's in a name?" the poet asked an unknown interlocutor. Over the same question, but in a broader sense, humanity has been struggling for centuries, but the names are in no hurry to reveal all their secrets. Even notorious materialists and skeptics do not choose the first names that come across for their children, thereby recognizing that the name becomes the hallmark of a person in society, a part of himself. Many people are sure that an individual name not only contains information about its owner, but is also able to participate in the formation of its character, influence later life. In this regard, it is often mentioned famous phrase"Whatever you call a yacht, that's how it will float." What can we say about a man - a living being and connected with the universe by thousands of threads!

Personal names are the object of study of anthroponymy - a branch of the science of onomastics. Within its framework, researchers study their origin, evolutionary development, laws and features of functioning. Each name, whether it is originally Slavic or borrowed from other languages, for example, Greek and Jewish, has its own history, its own meaning. The original meaning of many names was lost in the thickness of the centuries, erased, no longer taken literally. In addition, not all people are interested in the meaning of their name, thereby missing the opportunity to learn more about themselves and their life prospects. Meanwhile, the research of modern anthroponyms is aimed at compiling psychological portrait a typical representative of this or that name, because even earlier it was discovered that the same named people have much in common in character, fate and even appearance.

Of course, one should not exaggerate the role of the name in the formation of personality, but nevertheless it deserves the closest attention.

When naming a daughter, parents should understand: the name is the most important decoration for a girl, which she will have to wear all her life. Stella or Milada? Bazhen or Carolina? Clara or Zoryana? Or maybe just love? Rare and beautiful names for girls are presented in such abundance that it is difficult not to get confused. But which one is right for your baby, and what is the right name for your daughter? About this - in our material.

Today, the influence of the female name on her character, quality and life expectancy is studied quite widely. Moreover, the topic is considered by official science, and predictive practices, and magic. Understandably, many parents want to know how it all works. After all, it is so important to write down in the birth certificate not only a beautiful full name, but a happy fate for your daughter.

The name is determined by the calendar, season, numbers and science

So, for newborns, astrologers draw up special horoscopes that allow you to determine a successful naming option. Numerologists select the "correct" names by calculating the date of birth of the child. Healers ask nature what an unusual name to call a girl: they recommend choosing options according to the time of year and month of birth.

There is also anthroponymy. This is a separate scientific area for the study of the history of the emergence and evolution of the full name, the patterns of functioning of its components. In their works, anthroponymists analyze various proper names, identify the most successful combinations of full names.

For believing Orthodox Christians, the most recommended option for naming a girl is according to the calendar. So, the name is given in honor of the saint, whose day coincides with the baby's birthday or falls on the eighth, fortieth days from birth.

How were children named in the old days?

Our ancestors approached the naming of girls easier. And at the same time, the names of the then beauties could be the most unusual. In Russia, they were selected so that the baby could be distinguished from other family members. For example, Pervusha was the first child. The name reflected external data: the girl Chernava grew up swarthy and with dark hair. And Nekrasa was born not too pretty.

The features of character or behavior were taken as a basis: Cry-baby, Clever. They named the baby, taking into account the circumstances of her birth. For example, Istoma grew up in families where her mother suffered during childbirth. And Snezhana was born in the cold. The attitude of adults towards the girl could also be indicated: Zhdana, Nezhdana, Lyubava, Darena.

Anna, Maria and Sofia are the three most popular female naming options on the planet. Although sound in different countries they may not be the same because they have many synonyms. For example, Annette, Marie and Sophie live in France. And Hannah, Marichen and Zofa are in Germany.

Many modern female names literally fascinate others, and make their owner even more attractive. But finding an interesting, in your opinion, naming option is only half the battle. In order for the name to "play", you need to take into account several points.

1. Nationality. Now in Russia, children are often given “names” that are unusual for local culture and traditions. They are borrowed from other countries, religions, mentalities. In some cases, this is justified. But in combination with the usual Slavic patronymics and surnames, it looks, to put it mildly, strange. For example, the combination "Gayane Vasilievna Kozlova" loses to the combination "Gayane Gasparovna Oganesyan". For an Armenian girl, this name is suitable, but not quite for a newborn Slav. It is also worth considering that in interethnic marriages, girls are born whose external features differ from typical Slavic features. Therefore, for mestizo children, it is also necessary to carefully select the naming option. In Russia, the dark-skinned Masha, whose dad is an Arab, will always be given increased attention. But Regina or Sabira in this case will be neutral and suitable options.
2. Surname . Not all families can boast of a rich and strong surname. In such cases, the girl should not choose a too unusual name. Judge for yourself: the combination of "Malvina Vyrvihvost" will be a double reason for peer ridicule. The option "Natalia Vyrkhvost" in this case looks neater. Of course, one can hope that Michel Gus or Chernava Cloud will grow up, get married and take the names of their soulmates. But what if they decide otherwise? Now, after all, many believe that a change of name negatively affects fate. So, women are afraid to make changes in documents. But even there is a girl who is not superstitious ... What if she falls in love with a guy with the surname Bloch, Damn, Grave, Slyunin or Pindyur?
3. Middle name . In addition to the national factor, the principle of consonance must also be taken into account. For bulky, long patronymics, it is worth choosing short names. Otherwise, those around when addressing the girl will break their tongues. For example, the combination "Garden Ramzullovna" outperforms the combination "Wanting Ramzullovna". The same principle applies when comparing the combinations "Vladislava Veniaminovna" and "Nina Veniaminovna". By the way, a tandem is good, where consonance is read in the name and patronymic. And also win options where the “names” of the daughter and dad begin with the same letter: “Angelina Andreevna”, “Irina Igorevna”, “Nora Nikolaevna”.
4. Forms. What will you lovingly name your daughter? Zoechka, Mashunya, Katrusya, Lelya, Lyubasya ... Any female address takes official and diminutive forms. But also many of them can be transformed into nicknames. Here you need to understand that children, especially schoolchildren, are cruel. They love to tease each other. So, Anfisa can turn into a Rat, Yulia - into Dulya, and Rosa - into Dung.
5. Fashion. Especially young parents want to be in trend and find a fashionable name for the baby. There are even completely excesses like the Keyboard, Sarah-Paprika, Simka or Viagra. But in the pursuit of originality, think about the future of your daughter. Do you have a neighbor old lady Dazdraperma? Hardly. Since, having matured, the girls, fashionably named after the Soviet May Day, were in a hurry to change this rare name. Grandmothers of the Olympics are also few. Yes, and few people know the old women with the name of Trolebuzin, named according to the principle “Trotsky-Lenin-Bukharin-Zinoviev”.

Psychologists recommend avoiding options with unexpressed sexual attachment when naming girls. The "asexual" names of Eugene, Valery, Alexander, Alexy can "steal" tenderness and girlish charm from your baby, hinder her development, female self-identification. Also, you should not name the child in honor of relatives who lived a difficult fate and passed away in agony. And giving the girl the name of the mother, you increase the risk of competition and misunderstandings in the family.

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, about faith in God. They do not believe in God, because a believer will never make a deal with his conscience, he will never engage in deceit, slander, and fraud. There are a lot of scammers, pseudo-magicians, charlatans, envious people, people without conscience and honor, hungry for money. The police and other regulatory agencies are not yet able to cope with the increasing influx of "Cheat for profit" insanity. So please be careful!
