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 there are 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 Fadeev’s 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 and today, during the sacrament of baptism, the child is given a second name, which is recommended not to be advertised to strangers. His clergyman determines by 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 undue 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. Short names are better suited for bulky middle 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 is 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 not grow up loving son and an assistant, but an irritable and insecure eternal fatherly competitor.

In pursuit of fashion: how do Icaras 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.

During the Soviets, Perkosrak (in honor of the launch of the first space rocket) and Dazdraperma (in honor of May Day) were popular.

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 are 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 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.

What is the most important event in anyone's life? If you think about it, the answers will always be the same. After all, there is no greater joy than realizing what you gave new life. The child ideally becomes the fruit of love and mutual tenderness. But great happiness comes with a number of questions. For example, what name should I give my child? After all, you want it to be happy, so that the child likes it. Surely everyone would like to have original name. What are the most beautiful and rare male names?

The importance of choice

It is believed that a name can influence a person’s destiny, his character and personal life. A person hears it most often, and its effect on the inner self is important. Do you like your name? Did you want to change it? By the way, such an opportunity exists, but only after reaching a certain age. There are names that are soft and gentle, and there are names that are hard and hard. You need to choose your name wisely so that it is pronounced clearly and is in tune with your middle name and last name. In adult life a person will be treated with respect if he himself likes to hear such treatment.

When choosing, a number of factors are taken into account: from the time of year to the severity of character. Babies born in summer are active and playful, like a June afternoon. And those born in winter and autumn are more realistic, distrustful and intelligent. So it turns out that choosing a name for a child is very difficult. To help parents, appropriate reference books and name popularity tables are published.

Rare stupidity

What would you never name your child? Can you guess? Some parents experience a strong rampant imagination and “dig out” unusual and rare male names from their memory bins. I wonder if the children will be grateful for such originality?! Last year, names with references to religious prophets were common among newborns. For example, Buddha-Alexander, Master, Angel, Prince and Peace. And someone decided not to worry about the name at all and gave it a double name - Sasha-Alexander. Among the girls, there are also plenty of unusual names: Alena-Flower, Delphine, Fox, Russia or Sunny. Rare male names Chingiz, John, Spartak have become fashionable over the past five years, and many parents, apparently, paid tribute to antiquity by naming their children Luchezar, Altai, Caesar or Hector.
There have been recorded cases in Russia where boys were named Leonardo and Marcus-Aurelius. But in our country, names are still chosen that are more or less acceptable, but abroad there are extremely strange examples. In one family where triplets were born, the names were given after the rooms in the house. This is the kind of stupidity that occurs in the world.

The attractiveness of a male name

Why think about a name, because his beauty is not the main criterion for a guy? Some families choose a name based on religious reasons. For example, Muslims believe that male names should have a high meaning. Very few families continue to adhere to the choice of symbolic names when the choice should please Allah. Usually, when translated, such names are quite modest, not distinguished by pathos.

A striking example would be the name Abdullah. It is translated as “slave of Allah.” This name is for an obedient and pious man who follows all the laws of the Koran. Sometimes they named a child out of concern for his afterlife: it was believed that he would be rewarded by his name, and if the child’s name was ugly, then they would take pity on him and brighten up his life after death.

In America, names with meaning are rarely given, so Native Americans give little thought to this issue. They usually select short and succinct options that go well with the surname, but they do not give a middle name. Beautiful, rare male names are used here only by visitors, and no prejudices arise. In this, our country still lags behind others. Even despite their beauty, Russian people perceive rare male names with caution, shorten them or replace them with more familiar analogues. Now modern medicine has made great strides forward, and it has become possible to find out the sex of a child in the early stages of pregnancy. Therefore, there is a considerable amount of time to choose the rarest male name. Maybe it’s worth stocking up on special aids in order to make a decision?!

What do the reference books say?

Every year in Russia statistics are compiled on the most chosen names. For example, in 2011 the name Maxim was named the most beautiful and popular. By the way, it is not of Russian origin at all, but boys are called that quite often. This is a name with a specific claim to the position of leader. Maxim grows up to be a reliable and calm guy, moderately cheerful and hard-working. He is a perfectionist at some points, but rarely proves capable of the humanities.

Alexander, Andrey and Alexey regularly appear in the rankings of the most popular names. But they are not suitable if you are interested in rare male names. The list of Russian variants is rarely added to. Will you ever meet Svyatogor or Ingvar now? No, the most common names are Byzantine, Greek and Arabic. Now Kuzma, Arkhip and German are out of fashion. They became archaic, just like Leo, Myron, Aristarchus. Let's try to put together rare male names.

List: Russian and foreign options

In order for a child to like a name, you need to choose it according to its euphony. For example, the combination of two roots in a word gives the sum of beautiful and sonorous rare male names: Yaropolk, Yaroslav, Svyatoslav. It is noticeable that the options are similar, they are easy to confuse, but they are majestic and courageous.

Abroad, by the way, names are not always very different either. Among Muslims, you almost never see the previously popular Abbas, Abdulmajid, Abdulwahid or Abudlhamid. Such guys grew up strong, strong and pious, which was especially valued in the old days.

Among the English in lately rare male names - Jacob, Michael, Joshua, Matthew, William, David. Once upon a time, their carriers were a dime a dozen, but times change, and with them the tastes of people.

In Germany, rare male names are Lucas, Luca, Tim, Leon, Max or Jan. If you name your boy this way, then there is little chance of meeting his namesake.

Previously, in Georgia they really liked to call boys with the letter “A”, but now Hmayak, Abig, Arsen, Artem or Argishti are rare male names. Modern children do not want to be named after their ancestors. Therefore, names with a cluster of consonants or difficult pronunciation are not particularly popular.

Calm and beauty

So how not to make a mistake with the most important choice in life for your child? Convene a consultation on this issue or make a decision by chance? In reference books you can select suitable male names. The list of rare options is supplemented only when they are especially successful and remain relevant. The bulk disappears in the past. For example, they have become the talk of the town, but in reality the Armenian names Ashot, Bagram, Zurab or Vakhtang are not found. The French Alar, Jean and Jacques, Baptiste or Honoré have not been used for a long time. In Italy, beautiful rare male names Enrico, Giovanni, Silvio and Vittorio belong to public figures or have become stage names.

There is a trend towards adoption Russian performers pseudonyms American origin. For example, one of the rappers is called Dominic, and the hero of the youth series is called Michael. Choosing a name at a conscious age is very different from how this process occurs at birth. Parents are faced with hundreds of options, but they cannot wait for the child’s opinion. Parents often look for beautiful male names (Russian) in books. Few families remember their roots and name their children in honor of their great-grandfathers. Naming a child with a proven and old name is somewhat beneficial, because it is clear that the meaning cannot be negative, otherwise the name would have long gone out of use. When choosing exotics, you have to delve into reference books. What if the chosen option has a terrible meaning? Will the child thank you for this?

Rare, but accurate

If the parents showed imagination and named the child something that others had not thought of before, then the boy’s life will be bright. He is unlikely to have a person around him with the same name. But the name should be euphonious, because there was a time when it was believed that terrible names protected children from evil spirits. Now the beautiful but forgotten name Renat is gradually coming back into fashion. The male name Demid remains very peculiar, but very beautiful. Also interesting are the options Rafil and Albert. Do you want to give your child a blissful and clear name? Then maybe Svetozar or Nazariy will suit you. They will not go well with a short and capacious surname long names, for example Innocent, Christopher or Cornelius. But even in Russia the beautiful name Christian will be relevant and fashionable.

Specific choice

Even the most original name can be digestible if you find an interesting abbreviation for it. It is unlikely that parents will give a name to their child in the hope that he will replace it with a nickname. The shortened version is not a nickname, but a convenient pronunciation. With such an attitude, the archaic but noble names Kondrat, Bronislav, Lavrentiy, Veniamin or Vissarion can receive a second life. When choosing, you should not pay attention to options with a pronounced national flavor. For example, most beautiful name Suleiman can only harmonize with the corresponding surname. Exactly the same problems will arise with the names Odysseus, Vivienne, Vakhtang or Stefan.

Message in meaning

Parents always believe that their child will become more serious, successful and significant than themselves. They spare no effort or money for this. The first serious step, which depends on the parents, is choosing a name. What do you want from your child? So that he would be kind and bright? Then it makes sense to understand the “solar” names, such as Helian or Helium, or maybe May. The name Damir gives the child peace-loving qualities. Innocent embodies innocence and purity of soul, Luxen brings light, and Hilarion brings joy. A boy named Milad will be sweet and kind, and Miron will amaze with his kindness. The cute child can also be called Milius. Those who want to express their attitude towards the baby can use the Radim (“native”) option.

Strength and Masculinity

A number of names are designed to emphasize the vitality of the owner and his masculinity. Do you want your son to be courageous? Give him the beautiful and ancient name Arseny. Or maybe Leonard to be strong?

The names Ovid (“savior”), Staly (“firm”), Nicephorus (“bringer of victory”) or Miroslav (“victor”) remain very pretentious. Such a peaceful and pleasant-to-hear name Leonid characterizes the boy as a “son of a lion,” and the now rather rare name Marsen means “warrior.”

With God in the heart

There has already been a conversation about religious names, but modern parents do not want to focus only on the divinity of the name. Let beauty and kindness be combined in one word. For example, Yang is the “sun god”. Such a boy will grow up to be self-confident, responsible and kind. Matvey will have a good character, it’s not for nothing that he “ man of God" And Benedict is truly “blessed.” By no means rare, but the names Oscar (“God’s spear”) and Bogdan (“given by God”) remain very original. The name “Jacob” seems to many to carry elements of blasphemy, because it means “one who imitates God.”

For the powers that be

For any parent, his child is the best and most worthy. Aren't you afraid to develop pride in your son? Then choose among the royal names. They are beautiful and symbolic. A boy with such a name will not become a subordinate or an eternal second place. It is aimed only at first places. Velimir will become the “ruler of the world,” and Aristarchus will strive to become the “head of the best.” Eruslan is a potential “lion” who has reclaimed his possessions. Voldemar will become the “famous ruler,” but Witold is closer to nature, and he feels like the “head of the forest.”

Last step

So, how do you make a decision if the choice is dizzying? First, we must take into account all the facts, wishes and intentions. Secondly, you need to find out the meaning of the names you choose. Well, thirdly, even the most ideal name may turn out to be irrelevant after the first glance at your child. After all, he is the most important critic and interested person. The first impression of it will indicate all the pros and cons of the chosen names. If it seems absurd to you to give your baby a rare or outdated name, then listen to your inner voice and abandon this idea. Let better name will be consonant with the surname, capacious and beautiful. Many people settle on simpler options, realizing that names like Volodar or Epifan only strain their ears and cause rejection. It is important not to overdo it in the search for exotic things, otherwise the child may find the only way out is to change his name upon reaching the age when this action is permitted.

According to the biblical legend, the first man's name was Adam, which means his name is the first male name in the history of mankind. Now, after many hundreds and thousands of years, male names number in the hundreds in the name books of all countries and cultures, without exception. And yet, the male name, like the female one, has, and continues to, conceal a secret...

Male names in different cultures of the world

Modern male names in different cultures come in a wide variety of variations. But each individual culture, be it Slavic, Western, Eastern or Central European, has its own naming traditions. In some countries, men are named in accordance with the social status of the families in which they are born, in others the naming occurs in accordance with religion and belief, and there are still other cases in which this process is treated in an extremely simple manner, as in the West and in particular in the USA.

In Slavic culture, for example, the process of naming a future man is treated extremely responsibly. Here men are always given names that correspond to their religious affiliation, and they try to give men names that could impart at least some biblical energy (although there are exceptions). Previously, newborn children were named this way only temporarily, and a man could receive a full name only after reaching nine years of age - then the name was chosen in accordance with habits, habits, hobbies or personal qualities.

At the same time, in medieval Europe the name was given such attention as is not given to this day in any culture. There, the choice of name was based on several factors at once. One of them was the definition social status and the belonging of the child and his family to one or another social class. But in the higher societies of that time, the name was more of a “label”, serving solely to distinguish a person from the crowd and identify him in this way.

And in China, men and women are named for completely different reasons. There, what is primarily taken into account is not the energy and meaning of the entire name, but the meaning and symbolism of each individual hieroglyph, imprinted in the full written version of the name. Hieroglyphs in this culture are divided into favorable and unfavorable, into those associated with a certain element, and vice versa.

Today, a lot has changed - in many cultures. modern people they have simply forgotten about the centuries-old traditions formed by our ancestors, while in others they are trying to adhere to the traditions of naming men, as well as women, modifying generally accepted ancient traditions and rules. But one thing has not changed - the name should belong to every man and woman, without exception. But now there is no need to associate it with religion, profession, craft or habits. Now you just need to choose the male name that will meet the wishes of your parents. And no one will ever make any claims about this.

Modern naming traditions

Subscribe to our channel

Modern naming traditions for men, as well as women, have been simplified to the point of impossibility. Literally thirty years ago, our ancestors were still trying to name future men in accordance with the main Slavic tradition - in honor of the Saint, who is venerated on the birthday of a child. Now, a lot has changed and you can call it by any name, not only Slavic, and not only church. And besides, given the richness of the Russian name book, it would be stupid to ignore variants of names that do not correspond to ours cultural traditions and religion.

For Muslims, everything is simpler - here they adhere to only one tradition, which is correct in the opinion of the majority. It consists of naming the future man with a masculine name that will carry favorable energy and mean something positive, correct from a psychological, cultural, and moral point of view.

The most common names among Muslims are still the names of the prophets, as well as some variations of the names of Allah. Historical name variations are also not excluded. True, there is one important rule - you cannot use exactly one of the hundred names of Allah; you need to add the prefix “Ab” to it, which means “slave”.

But in America and most countries of the modern West, the naming of a future man is no longer accompanied by any traditions. Now the naming procedure itself in the West sometimes resembles some kind of insanity. Children are named after singers, football players, famous politicians and just friends. And it doesn’t matter what the name means or what energy it has. And many parents even come up with something that makes them shiver. Although in Slavic culture these cases are no exception - for example, in Ukraine after the “Revolution of Dignity of 2014” many parents called their children “Maidan” and not only...

Name and religiosity: the main criterion for division

Religiosity in terms of naming men still remains as important a criterion as before. And it is worth noting that religiosity remains the only factor that most new parents still pay attention to.

On our portal, all male names, along with other criteria, are divided into categories according to religion. This:

  • Orthodox;
  • Catholic;
  • Muslim;
  • Jewish.

How to choose a suitable male name in modern times?

Choosing a good male name in modern times is not so easy, even though there are thousands of variations of male names, one way or another related to different religions, social factors, cultures and more. Ideally, you need to follow the traditions of the culture to which the child belongs - this is the first thing. That is, ideal option, is to find a name that matches the culture. But now this is not easy to do, because names from all cultures are mixed in one name book.

Thus, you can move on to another option, which involves choosing a modern male name in accordance with religion. Yes, yes, religion still remains almost the most important criterion. But naming in accordance with religion must be done carefully and adhering to traditions. For example, Orthodoxy recommends naming future men after the names of Saints, whose name day is celebrated on the child’s birthday. In addition, over time, a second name may be given - a church name. It is given at the time of baptism.

A name is something given to us by our parents. This is what we give to our children. It is very important, because it can become a reliable amulet and protective talisman for you.

Sergey. Sergei means "clear". Clarity is the purity and strength of the mind. This name is a good universal amulet, as well as a kind of lucky talisman. True, Sergei may still have frequent problems with his opponents.

Anton. A strong name that protects its owner from a love spell and from clouding of mind. There is weak resistance to the evil eye and curses. Anton is a warrior who fights for his freedom and recognition, so he is not always able to defend himself, because the essence of this name is fight.

Alexey. Translated from Greek it means “protector”. Protection is always good. The amulet from this name is good, but not always stable. This inconstancy prevents Alexei from being protected from the evil eye or love spell.

Michael. This name is controversially suitable for describing the ideal protection for a boy or an adult man, since the camp of specialists is divided into two large parts - those who believe that this name is one of the best, and those who consider it mediocre in terms of protection. Because of this confusion, we only give it sixth place on our list.

Kirill. This name means “lord,” which hints at a special energy. Kirill is his own boss, so simple evil eyes are definitely not scary for him. Do you want to provide the boy with protection and strength? — call him Kirill.

Valery. The meaning is similar to Cyril, but is interpreted a little differently. This is a stronger name-amulet, because it was always worn by the most persistent men. It provides stable protection from almost all types of energy effects.

Victor. The winner is the winner. The highest level of energy can give Victor protection from everything that comes from evil and hostile people. We give bronze to this excellent name, which is both beautiful and a talisman.

Igor. From time immemorial, Igor was painted with calmness, strength and equanimity. These qualities help to see the world in the right light, abstracting from everything that may be unnecessary. Igor is not at all bothered by the possibility of being damned. He knows it won't affect him. This makes Igor the most powerful amulet name on our list. Almost the strongest.

Alexander. Oldest name, meaning “protector of the clan.” This spiritual talisman is capable of providing stable protection not only to the boy or man himself, but also to his entire family. Thus Alexander is best name for protection from filth, the evil eye, envy, curses and all invisible problems.

Don't forget that a name is like a name for a ship. Whatever you name a boy, that’s how his life will be. Our ancestors believed that names have special magic that gives a person strength, luck and protection.

We also advise you to familiarize yourself with female amulets names. Find out how strong your name is, or help yourself decide what to name your future child. Good luck and don't forget to press the buttons and
