Russian language belongs to the group Slavic languages. However, many Russian names by their origin they are not originally Russian. They are borrowed from the Greek language along with Christian religion. Before this, Russians had names reflecting various characteristics and qualities of people, their physical disabilities, names reflecting the order of birth of children in the family. There were common names such as Wolf, Cat, Sparrow, Birch, First, Tretyak, Bolshoi, Menshoi, Zhdan. A reflection of these names is observed in modern Russian surnames Tretyakov, Nezhdanov, Menshov, etc.
With the introduction of Christianity in Rus', all the old Russian names were gradually replaced by church names that came to Rus' from Byzantium. Among them, in addition to the Greek names themselves, there were ancient Roman, Hebrew, Syrian, Egyptian names, each of which in its own way native language reflected a certain meaning, but when borrowed it was used only as a proper name, and not as a word denoting something.
By the 18th-19th centuries Old Russian names were already completely forgotten, and Christian names largely changed their appearance, adapting to the peculiarities of Russian pronunciation. Thus, the name Diomede was transformed into the name Demid, Jeremiah - Eremey, etc.
After October socialist revolution, names associated with the new ideology became widespread: Revmira (revolution of the world), Diamara (dialectical materialism); names reflecting the first stages of industrialization: Electrina, Elevator, Diesel, Ram (revolution, electrification, mechanization); names read in foreign novels: Alfred, Rudolf, Arnold; names based on the names of flowers: Lily, Rose, Aster.
Since the 1930s, such familiar ones have become widespread again. Russian names like Masha, Vladimir, Seryozha, i.e. the names closest to the Russian people are used. But this return to the old names does not at all mean a return to all the names of the church calendar, most of which remained unaccepted by the Russian nation.
On this page there are not only old (Russian calendar, Old Russian and Common Slavic), but also new male names.

For many men, the birth of a son is most important event in life. The boy will continue the family line and will bear his father’s surname. Since ancient times, the choice of a name for a boy was approached with special attention. After all, he had to grow up to be a brave, dexterous man, capable of protecting his family. Therefore, the name should help form positive features character.
First of all, when choosing a name for a boy, you need to remember that someday he himself will become a father. Therefore, it is necessary to choose one that creates a beautiful and easy-to-pronounce middle name. Some parents prefer to give their children names that are rare or atypical for our nationality. Before using your imagination in this area, you should think about your future grandchildren - how difficult will it be to choose a name for a boy by patronymic: Dzhonovich, Vetrovich, Angelovna or Karlosovna?
How to choose a name for a boy by patronymic
Before you give your child a name, think about how it will fit with the middle name. Question: “What to call a boy by his patronymic?” - is important, since it can also influence the child’s character.
You should not name your child after a date or event, or with unrealistic names, for example, Google or Quark. You should also be careful when naming your child after close relatives. The child can inherit the character and destiny of this person. And this can also cause the degeneration of your family.
Many psychologists do not recommend naming boys after their fathers. Firstly, it is not always euphonious and easy to pronounce. For example, Alexander Alexandrovich is often called San Sanych. Nikolai Nikolaevich may be nicknamed Kolya Kolya, which, quite possibly, will not please the bearer of the name. Psychologists also say that boys named after their father often grow up unbalanced, capricious, nervous and irritable. However, this is not important. After all, how a child grows up depends only to a very small extent on the name. As they say, it is not the name that makes the man, but the man who makes the name.
It is not recommended to call a boy with a male-female name if the peculiarity of the surname does not allow one to determine his gender. For example, the combination of the first and last name Sasha Cherny raises no doubt that it belongs to a man. The same applies to options such as Valya Ivanov, Zhenya Nekrasov, Valera Rochev. But in combination with inflexible surnames, such as Sasha Mitchell, Valya Katz, Zhenya Markevich - gender is not expressed. Boys are often embarrassed by this and, when they become adults, they often change their name or, when they get married, take their spouse’s surname.
It is worth remembering that boys often give each other nicknames, often quite offensive. Even if the team in which the child will be raised and studied turns out to be very friendly and united, the appearance of nicknames is quite possible, especially if the boy’s name is conducive to this. Parents need to make sure that various diminutive versions of the name they like do not carry negative meaning and will not be understood ambiguously.
It is worth familiarizing yourself with the etymology and meaning of the name. It may have a meaning that we are not even aware of, and the origin of the name may be very surprising. For example, many believe that the name Bogdan is Christian, since it literally means “given by God.” But there is also an opinion that Bogdan is pagan name, and God, captured in the name, has nothing to do with Jesus. Also, many are sure that such traditional names for Russians as Maria and Ivan are originally Russian, but, in fact, these are names with Jewish roots.
When thinking about how to choose the right name for a boy, you should give preference to the option in which it is possible to use both an adult - official - form and a soft - children's one. Psychologists recommend calling a rude and stern boy only by diminutive names. This will make his character softer. For example, Maxim can be Maksik, Masik, Masya, Maksimushka. Alexey - Lyoshey, Lyoshka, Lenechka. If the child, on the contrary, is too timid, shy, soft and weak, it is better to use a tougher, more masculine form of the name. In this case, Maxim should be called Max, and Alexey should be called Lyokha or simply Alexey.
Proper selection of a name for a boy will help develop certain qualities in the child. Firm, tough male names contribute to the formation of a strong and stubborn character in a boy. Examples of such names: Dmitry, Igor, Grigory, Egor, Gleb, Bogdan, Georgy. In these names, voiced paired consonants predominate, often in combination with the sound “r”.
People with soft names are distinguished by a calm and flexible character - among them are Mikhail, Alexey, Ilya, Vitaly, Miroslav, Veniamin, etc. In such names, vowels and sonorants “r, l, m, n, th” predominate, especially “l”. Neutral names are worn by balanced and moderately persistent people. Such names can be considered those that cannot be unambiguously classified as either hard or soft. For example, Roman, Andrey, Pavel, Arkady.
Perhaps the phonetic structure of the word has great importance, but many psychologists recommend paying attention to the set of associations that the boy’s name carries. It is not denied that a name can influence the development of a child’s personality, but this becomes possible not due to the sound of the name, but due to the associations that it evokes.
If you ask someone to make psychological picture absolutely stranger Just based on his name, there is no doubt that the task will be completed. This means that we have some kind of association associated with each of the names, often not even consciously realized.
Thus, Russians associate the name Alexander with great people, so they (Alexander) are often credited with a lot of positive qualities. Vladimir is assessed by the majority as a powerful, cunning, thoughtful, firm and strong person. This may be due to the easy-to-read meaning of the name, “possessing the world.” Many people associate Michael with a bear, so the corresponding qualities are attributed to him - immobility, clumsiness, conservatism, simplicity, hard work.
It is the associative perception of a name, as psychologists say, that ultimately influences character and destiny - after all, the development of his personality largely depends on how a person perceives himself and how others see him. Thus, parents can ask relatives and friends to draw a verbal psychological portrait of a person with a particular name. If, overall, the portrait turns out to be very nice, then the right name for the boy has been found! And when your heart tells you, you don’t have to go through the options anymore.
How to name a boy according to the calendar
If you are interested in how to name a boy according to the calendar, look at the child’s birthday. Every day church year As a rule, the memory of several saints is celebrated. It is also permissible to choose a name among those who are mentioned on the eighth day from birth, since it was on this day that in ancient times they gave a name, because the number eight symbolizes eternity. If the names from the church calendar for the first and eighth days do not suit you, then look at the 40th day from birth. It is on this day that the child is brought to church to perform the sacrament of Holy Baptism, and a cleansing prayer is read to the mother, after which she can return to church life again, begin confession and communion.
Nowadays, the child’s name is usually chosen by the parents and very rarely changed at baptism. For example, the boy Helius received the canonical name Herman at baptism. However, the revival of the church, the attention of the state to it, its recognition religious holidays, people's appeal to national history, the history of his family restored interest in church names. I would like to know not only when to celebrate name days, but also in honor of what saint we were named, so that we can turn to him in difficult times.
How to name a boy according to numerology
You can find out how to name a boy by date of birth. According to this science, each number carries a certain meaning and can influence a person’s destiny. Thus, the number “one” symbolizes the ability to go towards a goal and aggression, two – balance, three – the connection between the past and the future, four – stability and prudence, “five” – uncertainty, impermanence, but at the same time the ability to feel the fullness of being , “six” is stability, “seven” is mystical nature, “eight” is success and material well-being, “nine” is wealth and fame.
To find out how to correctly name a boy by date of birth using the science of numerology, you need to calculate the number that will correspond to the child’s birthday. And after that, you need to see what number corresponds to the chosen name for the baby - after all, the ratio of the numbers of the birthday and the name has a great influence on the fate of a person. If it suddenly turns out that the number of the name more number birthday, then the child can grow up ambitious, but if on the contrary, he will begin to indulge his weaknesses and inclinations. When the number of the birthday corresponds to the number of the name, then the child’s fate will be easy and his character will be harmonious. This situation can equally mitigate the unfavorable number or the unfavorable influence of the child’s name on his fate. But some numerologists are inclined to believe that the person’s character in this case will not be too bright, so choosing a name for a child is not so simple task, as it might seem at first glance.
