History of the origin of Russian names
Basically, all Russian names come from foreign ones. They came to us along with Christianity from the Greek language. In ancient times, Russian names reflected the quality of a person, his physical ailments, or how a child was born in the family. The names were quite common: Cat, Birch, First, Lesser, Zhdan. These names reflect modern Russian surnames: Zhdanov, Kotov, Menshov and so on.
After the baptism of Rus', all Russian names gradually went out of circulation, they were replaced by church names that came with the Christian faith. Along with Greek names, Jewish, Roman, Egyptian, and Syrian names came into use.
Around the 19th century, all Old Russian names completely went out of circulation, and Christian ones were modified in the Russian manner.
From antiquity to the present day
