According to Florensky
And in terms of its root meaning, and in origin, and in historical place, and, finally, in terms of physical and mental properties, the name Olga is close to the name Vladimir. Etymologically, Olga, or originally Helga or Elga, means great; Clearly, this meaning is close in meaning to the world mastery associated with the name Vladimir.
Origin of the name Olga
Both names came to us from Scandinavia, and both, deeply accepted by the Russian people and becoming especially Russian names, having been adopted by the Russian language, underwent a sound change that was far from accidental. Valdemar in Vladimir, of course, loses his cutting clarity, softens and becomes clouded with some dreaminess and uncertainty; in the same way, Elga’s cutting and even cruel clarity in the drawn-out and deep O... softens, blurs somewhat and becomes, if not more affectionate, then, in any case, more calm and motionless.
Both of them, Waldemar and Elga, grow up on Russian bread, become stout and no longer have the need to attack the world with pirate raids or magic runes: here, on new soil, everything will fall into their hands, and everything without effort on their part they are recognized as rulers and great. Naturally, they lose their dryness and the training of their predatory skills, and if they do not necessarily acquire kindness, then in any case their cruelty softens. And at the same time, they lose the short certainty of their lightning-fast desires, they become lost in themselves and, romantic in their search for something immeasurable, indefinite to them; It is not clear to ourselves, we are preparing for the Holy Font.
What has been said relates to the actual sound of these names; but the same thing would have to be repeated more definitely about the spiritual form expressed by these names. Like the name Vladimir, Olga - Elga - pagan name, and, moreover, northern paganism, where divine images are pale, unformed and little metaphysical, but the human will is strong, unyielding and itself appears to be a phenomenon - a mysterious force of another world. Tallness and dignity - this is the first sense in which the meaning of “great” should be taken from the name Olga. In our, modern way, it would be necessary to say, perhaps, not every one, but a big one, large, but, we must remember, northern paganism assessed the largeness of a figure as greatness, as a manifestation of great forces, and therefore the modern translation of the name Olga would be a distortion the main meaning of the name Olga. But so is Vladimir, for who else, if not the big one, not the big one, not the great one, therefore, can rule the world.
Character of the name Olga
Both of them, Vladimir and Olga, are like vessels filled to the brim with the juice of the earth: that is why they grow, that is why they are dignified, that is why they affirm their whole life, splashing out their strength, but that is why they also have magical charms, even wisdom and prophetic gift. However, both of the latter properties come in them from the roots to the earth, and not from heaven, and therefore are cloudy and biased, in their passion they can deeply sin and arouse in the soul constant anxiety and the quest to find something more than earthly in the earthly and conventional, until a ray from heaven will strike them. Both of them, Vladimir and Olga, feel and know, but they know not with their minds, but with their blood, much more than is necessary for earthly things; but knowledge of them is not enough for proximity to heaven. That is why, quantitatively multiplying their earthly successes, which are given to them much more easily than others, they think of piling up something great, right up to the sky, but the sky also appears to them as Valhalla - an unchanging feast and battle. With the amount of earthly things they imagine creating with their own hands something that is greater than earthly things. But, to their credit, this attempt, the constant attempt of their lives, is neither rebellion against God, nor fighting against God, is not a conscious challenge to God, whom they do not know, but a kind of conscientious delusion and blindness. They do not know and do not understand for the time being that heaven is different from earth, and that what is great is not very big, much less a big pile of small things.
The fate of the name Olga
Therefore, they are not driven by malice in their life construction and not by spiritual pride, which sets man against God. On the contrary, they rise upward because they surrender to the force that lifts them, like dough, into a couple of earthly juices: just like dough, because this rise occurs not due to internal density, but by the force of elasticity of gas bubbles, which do not contain anything essential. Their business is like soap suds, swelling as easily as it collapses. But let it be repeated again: their pride is as far from pride as their greatness is from greatness. In essence they are good fellows who can always be brought to reason if you slap them hard enough; They are less accessible to more delicate methods of suggestion, but not from contempt for others, but from intoxication with the juices of the earth. It’s not that these people don’t consider it necessary to obey, but they simply don’t hear the warnings and get carried away, simply without any restraint.
But when Divine mercy strikes them with an iron rod and, having smashed their cause into nothingness, clearly and indisputably, not with a “voice of thin cold,” but with a thunderclap, reveals to them the true formidable reality of a different reality and power, then such people with true humility accept the collapse of all that , which only recently intoxicated them to the point of self-forgetfulness, and they realize the insignificance of their business. Maybe after a while they will start working again
something like that, but in any case, the one who died will no longer be looked upon with regret. Physical properties Olga corresponds to the pagan and, moreover, rather northern basis of this name.
Type of name Olga
Olgas usually have significant facial features and a figure that is rather beautiful, but not delicate; an almost unfeminine strength breathes in them, at least according to modern concepts, and it can even turn into a certain rudeness, roughness of facial features, which would be expressed by rude treatment if Olga did not have intelligence. But her mind is also strong, above average, and, moreover, not formal or abstract, but very flexibly applied to circumstances and finds the most Right way in achieving what you want. In this respect there are some similarities between Olga and Sofia; but Sofia acts with a consciously set goal, and Olga is irresistibly carried away by her desire and goes through obstacles, although, perhaps, she herself is very little aware of what she is being drawn to at the moment as irresistibly as it is not motivated by reason. She flows in life, driven by forces that are deeper than the ordinary level of life, more organic, elemental, more akin to will, while Sophia does not even reach the organicity characteristic of at least this average level. Therefore, Sofia’s actions, with their rationality and integrity, are somewhat artificial, while Olga’s, despite their splashiness, surprise and sometimes eccentricity, “for some reason” they come at a time in life and at the moment seem to us to be a more viable way out of the current confusions of life.. If Sofia's exactingness leads her to life's collisions, then Olga's instinct, achieving what she wants in the near future, often tightens the knots of what follows and forces her to look again for how to get out.
So, Olga’s roots go deep into the rich black soil and stands firmly on the ground. There's a lot in it mental health and balance, which she receives from the earth and, despite all the reluctance to take into account moral norms, which she does not irrevocably destroy within herself, also due to the strong instinct of the earth. Olga's passions must be judged by a different court than those of many others: these are not so much evil manifestations of depravity as strong movements of a will that does not know restraint - but not unwilling to know, but simply unaware. And therefore, the offensive and painful that one has to receive from Olga most likely does not come from the malicious intent to cause pain, but from the crushing of everything in the way: she turned her shoulder, and the joint flew out and, perhaps, killed someone, and she was in ecstasy and I didn’t give myself the trouble to understand what had happened. This is health turning into “healthiness”. Olga’s spiritual scale does not fit the standards of the majority, and all her character traits are larger than usual. In this sense, she, too far from real and especially artificial fragility, may not seem like a woman, at least in modern understanding femininity.
But it would be a big mistake to interpret her character as masculine, and this mistake arises when one compares her mental makeup with that of a small-scale man. But he, miniature compared to her, is in fact not feminine, just as she is not masculine. She contains the spiritual structure of the Valkyrie maiden, and she must be compared with the corresponding male type - the knight. In this largeness of Olga’s features there is, however, its own proportionality, as in Olga in general - a kind of integrity. That is why going deep into the earth, giving Olga secret knowledge, does not break her personality: Olga is prophetic, but she owns her knowledge, and it does not invade her. It is too solidly made for the intuitions of being to live in it independently; she subordinates them to the general aspiration of her personality, and everything that, due to the strength of its originality, could not be subordinated, is instinctively rejected by her and does not reach her consciousness.
According to Mendelev
This name, rare in beauty and power, usually belongs to a prominent and bright personality. Often those around her look at Olga with timidity, so to speak, from the bottom up, feeling her superiority. But this quality does not humiliate anyone; Olga’s strength and energy help others overcome difficulties and solve their problems. She tends to get to the bottom of the source of her own and other people’s troubles and make decisions that should influence this source and improve the overall situation. Can achieve good results in any type of activity - in science, in production, in creativity.
Olga sees connections between disparate phenomena and successfully intervenes in the course of events. She enjoys unquestioned authority, and not only among close people. It happens that she experiences difficulties in family life, because not everyone can match such a strong and original personality. Olga's character traits stand out even more clearly when analyzing the name Olya. True, brightness, courage and power do not always manifest themselves visibly to others; sometimes they are hidden and few people know about them. For Olya, the main thing is not to bury her talents, to allow all her abilities to manifest themselves.
Olga is able to overcome any obstacle if necessary to achieve her goal; True, what is of value to her may be completely indifferent to others. Nevertheless, she is an unconditional authority for those around her. Conscious of her strength, Olga never boasts of it, she even seems ashamed of it. She does not make her way into leadership and does not seek power over others, and if this happens, it happens against her desire.
The color of the name is almost pure white, while Olya’s is with the addition of red.
By D. and N. Winter
Meaning and origin of the name "Olga"
Russian form of the Scandinavian name Helga, "Sacred"
Character of the name Olga
The name is somewhat cautious, but it quite interestingly combines sufficient isolation with external activity. The energy of the name inclines Olga to pay a lot of attention to herself and her inner experiences, without really trying to show them to others. Often this makes Olga think, as they say, on her own mind. Whether this is true or not, the combination of such opposite qualities in her character, her activity in communication and isolation really make Olya a very diplomatic and even calculating person. It’s as if she constantly controls herself – what and with whom she can, and what she shouldn’t do.
Usually this trait begins to manifest itself in her character in childhood, and if you look closely at Olya’s behavior, you can notice some tension behind her goodwill towards others. This is especially noticeable during the first meeting, when Olya involuntarily tries to go around and smooth out sharp corners, which can hardly be called characteristic of childhood. Subsequently, when the relationships in the team are basically determined, Olya becomes more open, although even here she prefers to hide most of her feelings from others, which can be perceived as patience and restraint. Of course, keeping your emotions deep in your soul for a long time is a rather difficult task, but Olga usually finds a fairly safe way out for them. Sometimes this manifests itself in making fun of others, which, perhaps, can be called the most acceptable, since otherwise Olina’s firmness can push her to “let off steam” in communicating with loved ones. However, often her sense of humor begins to take on a caustic character.
Energy named after Olga
The energy of the name does not dispose Olya to open confrontation with anyone, and yet a large number of misunderstandings and difficulties in communication cannot be ruled out in her life. The point here is Olga’s pride, which, due to her secrecy, can sometimes grow to impressive sizes and even become painful, as well as her ability to be tough, especially with close people. Freed from this and turning her sense of humor against her pride, Olya can avoid many mistakes, and her patience and ability to work hard will allow her not only to become wonderful wife and housewife, but also to achieve significant success in their career, including in leadership positions. The latter, by the way, is important for most women with this name.
Secrets of communication: Olga cannot be classified as a person who can be accurately judged at first glance. Often, when meeting her, she gives the impression of a pliable and dutiful person, but over time she may gradually begin to show commanding tendencies. In general, when communicating with her, do not forget that logic and calculation almost always prevail over emotions.
Trace of the name Olga in history
Olga Knipper-Chekhova
The fate of the actress Olga Knipper-Chekhova (1868–1959), who devoted her entire life to two things, was surprising: Art Theater and to my dearly beloved husband. Actresses whose stage career Stanislavsky called “an example and a kind of feat.”
At the age of twenty, after graduating from the Musical and Drama School, Olga, as one of the most talented and promising students of Nemirovich-Danchenko, was accepted into the group of the Art Theater, where she soon made her debut in the play “Tsar Fyodor Ioannovich.” Her next role was Arkadina in Chekhov's "The Seagull", and Olga could hardly have thought then that within three years she would become the legal wife of the author of this play, Anton Pavlovich Chekhov himself.
Nevertheless, in 1901, not wanting to part with maiden name, Olga Leonardovna added the surname of her great husband to it and, starting from that time, she played in all the first productions of the writer’s plays, embodying complex and contradictory images his heroines.
Sixty years creative life Olga Knipper-Chekhova gave it to her native Art Theater, playing in it the entire possible repertoire. She also performed leading roles in plays by Tolstoy, Turgenev, and Gorky, impressing audiences with the variety of her repertoire, her brilliant talent, and her unconventional approach to revealing the character. On the day of her ninetieth birthday, Olga Knipper-Chekhova solemnly celebrated not only her calendar anniversary, but also her sixtieth anniversary on stage. On this day, she sat in a richly decorated box while Chekhov's "Three Sisters" were performed on stage. This was her last appearance in the theater - less than a year had passed before the world learned of the death of the talented actress.
Sexy portrait of a name (according to Higir)
Olga is a victim of very strong emotions. There's too much in her life great place occupy love suffering. Olga is always in love with her partners and is unable to separate sex from love. This close relationship creates limitations and barriers to her path to happiness. At the same time, she is sexy and sensitive, but very few men are suitable for her, and she is often dissatisfied with her sexual relationships.
Marriage and family named Olga
Olga often gets married in her early youth, quickly and suddenly falling in love even before she is able to understand and
know yourself. At the same time, it seems to her that this only love in her life. Olga is often already burdened with a family when her peers are just beginning to experiment in the field of intimate relationships. Olga was created for bright passions and sex; her first sexual adventures amaze with their turbulence and passion. She reaches the pinnacle of pleasure in sex, known only to a select few. Olga is jealous, she feels the pretense of love subtly,
becomes intolerant, even aggressive.
“Summer” women are the most temperamental; they are more interested in bed than work, but they are also less happy than others intimate life. “Winter” Olga is calmer, not denying herself sexual pleasures, she still puts caring for her family and children first. “Spring” Olga is feminine, charming, and can easily attract a man if she wants, but she chooses her life partner extremely carefully. All Olgas are possessive towards their men, but they themselves strive to get out from under their care and do not tolerate their jealousy.
According to Higir
Previously borrowed from the Scandinavian languages, it comes from the Old Norse Helga - saint. Female form male name Oleg.
Serious, touchy, thoughtful girl. Vulnerable, she can suddenly withdraw, and after some harmless remark tears appear in her eyes. At the same time, she is stubborn: even in cases where she is undoubtedly guilty, she will never ask for forgiveness “out of principle.” She is equally friendly with boys and girls. Capable, but learns without much desire, within the limits of what is required school program. Keeps in the shadows, never commits daring actions, does not cause trouble, at least for teachers, the “troublemaker” in the class is not Olga. I don’t mind chatting with my friends and at the same time “on my own mind.”
Adult Olga is not devoid of ambition, but as an inactive nature she rarely achieves great success in life. Her character shows a tendency towards self-criticism, and there is noticeable envy of her more successful friends, which she tries to hide, compensating for it with good, beneficent deeds. Olga is feminine, she takes care of her appearance, despite her eternal busyness. If Olga's first love does not end in marriage, she cannot find family happiness for a long time. What hinders her in this is the habit of comparing her fans with the first man in her life, who is an ideal for her.
Sometimes Olga does not marry for many years. But the one she chooses will be lucky. Olga is a faithful wife, knows how to cook deliciously, but she prefers going to the cinema or visiting an exhibition with her husband and children to the hassle in the kitchen. For some reason, the mother-in-law does not like Olga, but the latter, however, does not particularly care about this. Towards leadership in family relationships does not strive, but easily loses her temper when her husband begins to give her advice in purely feminine matters.

Comments from site visitors
Oh, about the intransigence of the info, we've got a lot. My friend is so meticulous, if she already decides to defend some point of view, you cannot convince her otherwise, even if she herself understands that she is wrong. And the fact that she is strong-willed. For all the time she had only 2 boyfriends, but this the best people whom I had the honor of meeting. So Olenka really has good taste. :)
Just like they wrote about my wife... Oh, and she’s meticulous!! These two sentences clearly describe my Olenka: “Olga is not compliant, she will achieve her goal with all her might. And even if she turns out to be wrong about something, it will be very difficult for her to admit it.” Always gets his way.
Thank you for the article.
Good afternoon I used to think that the name Olya was too simple, I wanted something exotic, but after reading it, I felt so proud, pleasant, and gained even more self-confidence. Indeed, this name is the best in the world. ALL OLGAS - BE PROUD OF YOUR PRINCE ORIGIN. TREASURE IT AND DON’T THINK OF CHANGING IT...
I have a friend, Olya, yes, yes, exactly a friend, not a girlfriend. Strong, strong-willed, unladylikely loyal, what can I list. I am grateful to fate that we are friends and I value this friendship. And you thanks a lot for correctly deciphering our names.
Everything written pure truth! It's all about me. And a quiet girl who keeps a low profile, studies well, and has no apparent interest, and is friendly. And early marriage for first love. And at the age of 45 she remained a widow. And the only thing that keeps me afloat are children and work. By the way, work in finance.
I'm honestly impressed! My daughter's name is Olga. That's all that is written about her here. We raised her harshly and demandingly. This formed her steely character. She is powerful, smart and will always get her way. Now he works in a bank and is successfully building his career. Of course, as a mother, I worry about her, because at her age they start families and give birth to children, and she is all about work. Work is her home, her meaning in life. I hope that over time she will have a family or at least a child. Difficult, and on the contrary, I would say, complex relationships with men, shook her trust in them. Still, I’ll hope for the best, I really want to babysit my grandchildren! Thanks for the article. I’ve never seen more precise characteristics!
I have a friend Olga, we have been friends for 30 years. She was my youngest daughter's teacher. Now both her and I have grown children. In her youth, she was indeed very energetic, very domineering and had difficulty admitting if she was wrong. But Life is going and we are changing. And my Olechka has become softer and is no longer so expressive and more calm. It's true what is described - she is a wonderful housewife and loving wife and mom. Almost everything in the article coincides with that Olya in her youth.
I really like it, I love this name, one of my favorites. At the same time, I’m not Olga and I don’t even have a single friend of Olga, and not a single relative with this name... I don’t know why I like the name so much... There is something princely and noble in this name
I’m Olga, I love my name very much, my dad named me Olga, in honor of his mother, my grandmother, a very good woman. So it’s a wonderful name, everyone I know with that name is very good and kind people... Everything that is written in the article coincides with my character
My boss at work is Olga. For Olga, work is almost the meaning of life. She is purposeful and vain, and all these qualities require and find expression in her work. Public recognition of her work is important to her. She is really very efficient and hardworking.
My mom's name is Olga. The name Olga endows its owner with great feminine wisdom and insight. She is very smart, strong-willed and fair, she is respected and appreciated at work. At the same time she is kind and good hostess, the house is orderly and clean
We named our daughter Olga. I read that Olechka will be a quiet but stubborn girl. Intellectually, she will develop faster than her peers, so Ole will be most interested in communicating with older children. Yes, she likes to play not with her peers, but with her brothers and sisters
We also named our daughter Olga. In principle, she is a calm and smiling child. She loves to play with children of any age and is smart beyond her years. Loves beautiful clothes, we buy her everything pink and shiny, she’s such a fashionista)))
I have a sister Olga. She is very stubborn; if she gets something into her head, she will not be convinced. She is not compliant and will try to achieve her goal with all her might. And even if she turns out to be wrong in something, it will be very difficult for her to admit it.
That's right. And about the school and the environment. But I didn't like one thing. This is that my husband will die. It’s also possible that I won’t get married a second time and will be left alone with a child. But there will be a man who will not marry me.
Most parents take a very responsible approach to choosing the name of their unborn child. It is generally accepted that a name is not just a set of letters written in a certain sequence, but the future of a person. Character traits, abilities, success in business and relationships are programmed at the stage of its assignment. You can argue with this point of view or agree. Famous aphorism says that it is not the name that makes a person, but quite the opposite. Another popular phrase states the opposite: “What do you call the ship...”. Loving parents use every chance to make their child’s life better and give it additional impetus.
Name
To be identified, each member of society must have a designation that is different from the others. A name is assigned at birth and accompanies a person until death, and sometimes continues to exist independently and without its bearer. There are a lot of such examples in history: Spartak, Casanova, Narcissus, etc.
The meaning and origin of a name depends on the people who assign it, on its culture, history, traditions and customs. IN modern world Unfortunately, due to the too rapid process of integration, individuality is lost. Many names are used in various countries, and their initial value is lost. Ancient peoples named each child with a word that meant something. The name spoke about the unique properties of a person or, conversely, was assigned in order to acquire certain qualities. For example, the meaning is clear to every modern Dobrynya, Subotka, Malusha, Besson, etc.
Origin and meaning
With the advent of Christianity in Rus', the process of replacing Russian (pagan) names with Greek ones took place. They were implemented forcibly. Each baby was named by a priest during the baptismal ceremony; parents did not participate in the process. Therefore, for a long time, people had two or more names, one of which was given by God, the other by their ancestors.
In our country, the situation changed with the Bolsheviks coming to power. God was abolished, churches were demolished, new names were invented, which were an abbreviation for revolutionary events and dates. They have taken root and are used to this day along with the Old Slavonic ones. This is logical, since the formed cultural layer of that time has the right to exist.
The science of onomastics deals with the study of proper names, the process of their transformation and modernization over a certain period of time. People's names have specific meanings. It depends on the language origin, and the personal qualities inherent in it (according to astrologers) can affect the life of the speaker. But onomastics cannot always provide reliable information. Many names are of such ancient origin that their origin is a matter of debate. The history of their use is surprising and interesting. For example, the name Olga is quite widespread in our time. The origin and meaning of this name for a girl can be determined with the help of special literature. Parents will probably find a lot of sources with various information, but do not get too carried away, since the child will grow in accordance with his innate inclinations. The name will help him if he believes in its power and influence on his own destiny.
Name Olga
The origin and meaning of this lexical unit is controversial. This name has ancient origin. The events that are associated with it are part of the history of our country. Of interest to researchers are the first documents that contain the name Olga.
The origin of the modern lexical unit goes back to the tenth century. Its form has not changed over more than ten centuries of further use, only diminutive variations are added.
The name Olga (the origin and meaning of this lexical object evokes one association for every Russian person - with the Grand Duchess) was borne by the wife of Prince Igor. Accordingly, the personal qualities of this historical figure are assigned to the name (although at baptism Olga was named Elena). In the chronicles there are earlier references to existing derivatives of the name Olga. Origin and meaning for a child can play an important role in life. That is why it is worth exploring all versions.
Version one
Most often, ancient Scandinavian origin. Olga - a derivative of Helga (Heleg, male form) - has several translation options: sacred, wise, bright, holy. In Rus' this name appears in the 9th - 10th centuries. together with men's Igor, Oleg, Rurik.
Version two
Quite often there is an opinion that this lexical unit is not independent, i.e. its roots are Scandinavian, but the male form is not related to the existing name Heleg. The reference is made to another name, similar in pronunciation and spelling (Olga - origin from Oleg). In case of identification, translation female name will mean “holy”. In any case, the Scandinavian origin of the name in this version is considered proven.
Version three
The opinion about the ancient Slavic origin is based on surviving chronicle documents. They often feature two spellings. The name Olga (the origin of the name is associated with male forms Volga, Volkh, which were used in Rus' a long period time before the arrival of the Varangians) was quite widespread. The chronicles include the variants Olga and Volga, which are used in relation to one woman.
Fairy-tale and epic heroes were called by these names. Volga is a hero who grew by leaps and bounds, while he could turn into any animal at will, possessed the wisdom of an old man and the strength of a young man. In this case, the name Olga is of Slavic origin (some experts write that it is Old Russian). It can be translated as “great”, “significant”, “big”, “good”. If we take the name Volkh as a cognate, we get a direct appeal to paganism, in which it meant “healer,” “knowledgeable,” “knowledgeable.” Such people always enjoyed authority among their fellow tribesmen and could be either men or women. Accordingly, the name Olga is of pagan origin and is translated as “knowledgeable, enlightened.”
Spreading
In any case, the history of the origin of the name Olga is connected with Kievan Rus. The first owner recorded in the chronicles was a baptized (Christian). After the death of her husband, Princess Olga ruled the state, which was quite large at that time, single-handedly until her son ascended the throne. Her domestic policy found support from her grandson Vladimir, who continued the process of unifying Russian lands and was baptized.
The image of Olga was canonized, she went down in history as the “foremother of the Russian princes.” The name did not enter into popular use; in class communities it had the status of a prince. During the reign of Elizabeth (by her decree), Igor, Oleg, Lyubov, Vera and the name Olga returned to use to raise Russian patriotism. The origin of the name and its history made it possible to name girls of noble origin in this way. But the first step has been taken. Olga became one of them in the 60s of the 20th century.
Foreign analogues
As a result of intensive trade and cultural interaction between states during the Middle Ages, the name Olga spread throughout Europe (Scotland, Germany, Czech Republic). In Brazil and Argentina it can also be found, although not as often. The pronunciation of the name in these countries has a Scandinavian slant and most often sounds like this: Helga. In states with a population of Slavic roots(Russia, Ukraine, Belarus), this form has not changed phonetically. The name is pronounced and written - Olga. Origin in this case plays a minor role; most often, parents are attracted by the sound and the powerful energy inherent in it.
Characteristic
The connection between a name and the human qualities of its bearer has not been scientifically proven. Although statistical research confirm the presence of similar character traits in those who bear the same name. Most people named after a great person subconsciously try to cultivate in themselves the qualities inherent in him.
The name Olga is ambiguous. On the one hand, this is a rather heavy phonetic unit (“lg”), which is softened in diminutive and affectionate forms. On the other hand, it is identified with alder - a flexible, soft and beautiful plant.
The owners of this name are full of contradictions, but at the same time they are very focused, self-confident, smart and determined. Another trait that is inherent in them is stubbornness, and it manifests itself most often on everyday grounds. It is difficult for Olenkas to admit their mistake, and they will never apologize for it. Parents who give their daughters this name potentially reward them with enormous driving force, which often brings success in their careers or creative lives.
Famous people
