Some unusual surnames cause a smile and positive feelings in the people around you and in the person himself, while others cause a negative reaction. In this list of names we have given mainly characteristic surnames, causing positive emotions.

Unusual surnames

What is the most important individual characteristic of each person? That's right - people began to call each other back in ancient times, but surnames appeared relatively recently. How were they formed? On what basis? Who invented them? Particularly interesting is the question of who created funny surnames. Or have they only become so now, and previously sounded quite normal? We will try to find answers to these and other questions today. It is quite possible that, considering this topic, and we will laugh heartily!

in Russia

U different nations peace in different time main distinctive features each person. In Russia, for example, surnames began to appear in the 12th-13th centuries, but in Europe they began to spread much earlier.

The first person to introduce such a concept as “surname” into use in Russia was Peter I. Before this, people called each other. They were also called “reklo” and “name”. In the tsar’s decrees regarding the census of a certain area, it was stipulated that all residents should be recorded “by name, fathers and nicknames,” which meant first name, last name and patronymic.

The first surnames in Russia were given to princes, nobles and boyars in the 14th-15th centuries. Basically, they were based on the names of their patrimonial estates: Kolomna, Zvenigorod, Tverskaya, etc.

Later (in the 17th-19th centuries), servicemen and merchants of the Russian land began to be called by surnames. Their surnames also came from geographical names. But not from the possessions that they controlled, but from the areas from which they were from: Rostovtsev, Moskvich, Astrakhantsev, Bryantsev, etc. As you can see, the suffixes of the surnames of merchants differ from the suffixes of the surnames of princes. Using them, modern residents with similar surnames can easily determine which lands their ancestors came from.

In the 19th century, surnames of people close to the church began to form in Russia. Many of them were artificially created from various words foreign origin. A significant group of such surnames is derived from the names church holidays and the churches themselves: Uspensky, Rozhdestvensky, Epiphany and others.

As for the peasants, their surnames, in fact, reflected their street nicknames. Sometimes they changed. In one family in one generation there could be several surnames at once.

Many Russian peasants received their “main titles” only after October revolution, before that they were without surnames.

Modern surnames

Currently, every inhabitant of planet Earth (with rare exceptions) should have a surname. Most Russian surnames are derived from patronymics, but not by adding the suffixes -ovich, -ich, -inich, etc., but in the form of the so-called half-patronymic with the suffixes -in, -ov. For example, Peter’s son is Petrov’s son (the resulting surname is Petrov), Nikita’s son is Nikitin’s son (surname is Nikitin).

Funny surnames: whose imagination is it?

But scientists still cannot determine the etymology of such surnames as Danilin and Danilov, Voronin and Voronov (with the suffixes -ov and -in). The same applies to the question of how and by whom funny surnames were invented. Why do some people say their name with their heads held high while others blush when they are introduced in public? Indeed, very funny surnames can sometimes become a source of self-doubt for their owners, a real obstacle to achieving success. Fortunately, today the legislation allows anyone to change their name to a more attractive one. But then a person becomes part of the gray mass and loses his amazing uniqueness. What should I do? Do funny surnames interfere with your life? Let's try to figure it out.

Some enthusiasts, for the sake of a good mood (their own and other people’s), create ratings “The funniest surnames in Russia.” The organizers of such actions ask residents of our country to send real stories people who have encountered this or that original surname. They study phone books and various registers. They photograph the funny names of doctors on office signs, the names of company executives, and employee badges. retail outlets in order to confirm the reality of the existence of such people. And then make them publicly available using modern technologies communication and connection.

By studying such ratings, you can ensure good mood all day! And let them say that laughing at someone else’s name is ugly, that they only do this in kindergartens, we will still do it! Not to offend any of the owners of such a name, but for the sake of a sincere, genuine smile on the face. So, meet unique people in absentia!

List of funny surnames: real stories

An employee of one of the commercial banks regularly maintains a register of shareholders, which already contains more than seventy thousand names. Deciding to highlight the most interesting of them, he was very surprised, as there were a great many of them! He didn’t even take into account people like Tadpole, Popik and Truffle! Among them he found the following: Kakashkind, Beeliner, Chmyryuk, Tampak, Intraligator and many others. The owners of these surnames, by the way, successful people- owners and directors of companies! And it doesn’t bother them at all to live their interesting name- on the contrary, it allows them to always be the center of attention!

Treasures of phone books

Another group of enthusiastic comedians decided to study the Moscow telephone directory. And here are their “Top funny surnames”! Among the 2.7 million subscribers there were the following: Blyabkin, Blyablin, Blyaror, Blyakher, Blyakhman, Blyakherov, Bobik, Bobinchik-Rabinovich. By the way, in Moscow there is not even one such family, but several. Special attention deserve Martyshkin, Nedryshchev, Zadnikov, Sukhozad, Pupkin, Sivukho, Khernykh, Hernes, Kheresh, Kherenkov. It remains to sympathize with subscribers with the names Zyuzya, Shmal, Shnurapet, Zuduyviter, Zababashkin, Sivokobylenko, Glyukin, Paltsapupa, Sivokoz, Durnopeiko and Narko.

Also available in phone book Moscow owners of the surnames Sharikov, Chaynikov, Didus, Gavva, Abebe, Varenye, Gergelaba, Zhuikov, Bobro and Bobik. No less interesting are double names: Engel-Mengel, Honest-Khoroshko, Kill-Joyful, Buffalo-Cat, Shura-Bura. But again, we advise those who may have read their own among these names not to be upset! You are unique, be proud of it! In order to dispel the myth that such surnames interfere with life and success, we present a list called “Funny surnames of athletes.” It turns out there are lucky ones among them too!

Funny names of football players

Thirty of their owners can easily get into the hit parade of funny surnames among football players. These are mainly athletes of foreign football teams. It just so happened that their surnames, which can be pronounced with pride in their country, sound very funny in Russia. On our soil the following football players will not be able to avoid smiling:

From this article you will learn:

We are already accustomed to the fact that every person has a surname, which distinguishes him from others, shows his belonging to a certain family and is inherited. However, this was not always the case. The official assignment of a surname to each person occurred less than a century ago, which in the context of history is a very short period of time. The story of each a separate surname unique in its own way. Sometimes dozens of people with the same last name live in the same territory. Sometimes it happens that we smile when we hear some unusual surname. Today we will talk about such rare family names.

There are actually a lot of rare surnames that really ring a bell. There are simply relatively few bearers of such surnames. It is impossible to cover them all in the article, but we will at least try to classify them and divide them into groups.

1. Single letter surnames: despite the simplicity of their composition, they are quite rare and unusual for hearing. People are registered in Moscow by last name ABOUT ,YU And E .
2. Surnames consisting of one syllable: They are also not very common. Only a few families with surnames live in Russia An , Yong , That And Before .
3. Surnames-toponyms: these are surnames that are consonant with the names of cities or rivers. For example, not many people have surnames like:

• Moscow ;
• America ;
• Astrakhan ;
• Kamchatka and others.

1. Legendary surnames: these are the names of literary and historical heroes, the carriers of which are also very few. These include names such as:

• Crusoe ;
• Grozny ;
• Pozharsky ;
• Chatsky ;
• Karenin and others.

1. Double-root surnames: this includes surnames obtained by merging two words at once. Some names sound quite euphonious and are quite common, but you rarely see surnames such as:

• Good afternoon ;
• Eybogin ;
• Backstreet ;
• Comb my mane ;
• Nepeyvoda ;
• Cool gunpowder ;
• Grab the mule ;
• Shchiborshch ;
• Kill and others.

1. Surnames consonant ordinary words : these are words that, when officially recorded, did not receive normal suffixation using suffixes typical for surnames -s And -in:

- consonant with nouns:

• Water ;
• Stove ;
• Freezing ;
• Pot ;
• Chizh ;
• Magpie and many others;

- consonant verbs:

• Tron ;
• Razdobudko ;
• Bite it ;
• Klyuy ;
• Negrey and others;

- consonant with adverbs:

• On the side ;
• Sometimes ;
• Generously ;
• Nothing ;
• Let's go and others.

This list can be continued endlessly. We do not set ourselves the task of covering the entire scope of rare Russian surnames: we have outlined only the main trends in their existence. And after all, each of the surnames has its own unique, unique story, which can tell about the life of our distant ancestors.

Where could such rare and unusual surnames, unfamiliar to our ears, come from? Initially, a person was given a nickname that distinguished him from the rest of the people. If a nickname stuck with a person, it gradually became a name assigned to a certain clan or family, even if unofficially. So the nickname turned into a surname. Since nicknames are most often rude or mocking in nature, all modern rare, unusual surnames come from them. Their origins can be very different, but people who study anthroponymy (the history of human surnames, first names, patronymics and nicknames) identify several main trends in the origin of such names.

1. Last names were given according to appearance person:

• Bryla (that was the name of people with plump, saggy lips);
• Lobar (a person of large build);
• Pupysh (the so-called pimply man);
• Uraz (crippled person);
• Mug (ugly person);
• Makura (blind person);
• Fursik (short man).

1. The surname could reflect occupation person, his profession:

• Obabok (that’s what our ancestors called people who traded in mushrooms);
• Vozovik (a person selling goods from a cart);
• Lazebnik (barber);
• Argun (Vladimir carpenter);
• Clamp (one who deals with horses).

1. Character traits also often appeared in unusual surnames:

• Butt (as in some areas they called a stupid and stubborn person);
• Ogibenya (a nickname for a flattering and deceitful person);
• Kichiga (empty man);
• Buzun (fighter);
• Palga (nickname for a clumsy person).

4. Last names could be given according to place of residence:

• Zaporozhets ;
• Vyatich ;
• Moskvich ;
• Volyn ;
• Uralets and others.

1. Since Russian culture was formed for many centuries under the influence of Orthodoxy, many rare surnames have church origin:

• Prayer ;
• Deacon ;
• Bell ;
• chanter ;
• Bogodukh and others.

Thus, each surname has its own little story. How nice it would be if every person with a unique surname revealed its secret and preserved its history for their descendants. However, in the history of all rare surnames, common points can be identified.

XIII-XIV centuries

At this time, people in villages began to be distinguished not only by their first names, but also by their surnames. Noble boyars received dashing and sonorous surnames, but the peasantry did not know how to speak beautifully, so they had the most dissonant surnames. Some of them never received a suffix and retained their original form:

• Fritter ;
• Fool ;
• Oakmaker ;
• Bogomaz ;
• Tit ;
• stub and others.

70s of the XIX century

In 1874, Alexander II carried out a military reform, according to which universal military service was introduced, which entailed the legal registration of surnames for all males. There were often cases when a recruit found it difficult to answer the question of what his last name was. In this case, the surname was given right away, most often based on appearance. Since there was no time to fantasize, the names often turned out funny and even rude. Some of them have reached us:

• Toothless ;
• One-armed ;
• Hard of hearing ;
• Crooked ;
• Redhead ;
• Forehead and other names.

90s of the XIX century

In 1897, the first all-Russian population census was carried out, which legally assigned surnames not only to men, but also to women and children. The surname finally became officially assigned to a specific family. In some places, census takers gave surnames the desired form using typical suffixes, and in others they left them in the form of nicknames, which have become rare today:

• Censer ;
• Turnip ;
• Breeze ;
• Milk ;
• Extreme and others.

1930s

In the 30s of the 20th century, an important era took place in general history surnames In Russia, everyone was offered to change their dissonant surnames. Entire lines of people with the most unusual surnames flocked to the registration departments. The Izvestia newspaper managed to record this historical moment: thanks to it, we have a list of those names that disappeared forever in the 30s of the last century:

• Poltobatko ;
• Near-Fist ;
• Balda ;
• Poodle ;
• Doggie ;
• Corn ;
• Barefoot ;
• whiny ;
• fly agaric ;
• Tail and many, many others.

This is the difficult path many rare names have gone through. Some of them managed to survive, others are irretrievably a thing of the past and exist for us only on paper. Rare surnames not always funny and absurd. Among them there are many euphonious and beautiful - ones that their bearers are rightfully proud of.

I’m telling you right away, those who have read it won’t start blabbering that it’s like a button accordion.. we’re sitting in silence, maybe someone hasn’t read the thread...))) Also continue the topic if you want... There’s no mat, just real names.. some people are real it's a pity...)))

A little preface. I work in a commercial bank and maintain shareholder registers. To date, these registries have collected more than 70 thousand people ( Small town!) and we decided from all the ones we came across cool names collect ratings, and then draw a prize of the week, month, etc.
Just funny names like Popik, Tadpolastikov, Truffle and others are included only in the starting ratings, so I don’t list them here.
Well, this is what we have in the collection (I swear, everything is documented, I saw copies of the passport!) Kakashkind, BlyaTko, Chmyryuk, a woman with the last name Polovaya (an interesting question: how is life, Polovaya?), an eccentric with sonorous surname Beeliner (I wonder if they gave him a cell phone for free?), a man named Tampak (I really want to add, right?), worthy citizen Judas Shlemovich Prezerman (just like Chekhovsky: there is no such thing,
which could not become Jewish surname, and what a first and patronymic name!), director of a reputable company named Piskin (when he calls the office, everyone freaks out)
Well, now the first three (in descending order) of the current month, I’ll repeat - I have copies of passports!)
3) Alexander Nikolaevich Sraka (strong, right?)
2) Leonid Naumovich Khuer (even stronger!) and
1st place - hit of the season - a woman with the last name INTRALIGATOR (like
international crocodile).
We decided to study all 2.7 million subscribers of the Moscow telephone network and specifically identify such names.
The letter “B” turned out to be the richest in obscene surnames. In Moscow, one Blyabkin and nine Blyablins are toiling under the yoke of teasers. And even without the number of owners of such surnames as Blyaror, Blyatnik and simply Blyakh. We express our sympathy to these people. And also Blyakher, Blyakherova and all the Blyakhmans. Against the backdrop of these sufferers, one can only rejoice for three
families who proudly bear the surname Bobik. Or
Bobinchik-Rabinovich. And there are two Nedrishchevs in Moscow, but there is another Sruchkin, four Zadnikovs and one Sukhozad. There are, respectively, five Pyatizhopovs. For every three Nadkhullins there is one Podkhullin. Onanizev is present in two
copies, Pupkin - three, and Sivukho also two. The letter “B” in the Russian alphabet can only compete with the letter “X”, which begins with three Kherdvimovs, one Khernykh, one Hernes, one Kheresh and three Kherenkovs.
For some reason, the surname Alkashov is very unpopular among us - there are only two of them.
But five families bear the surname Pedik. They are joined by the citizens of Pedora and Pedyachaya, against whose background the owners of the surnames Shnurapet, Shabash, Zyuzya, Zaduyviter, Sivokobylenko, Sivokoz, Paltsapupa, live very well,
Zababashkin, Durnopeiko, Narko, Shmal and Glyukin. We believe that one citizen Mudel and nine Mudorisovs were very unlucky.
But the fact that in Moscow for every Bad one there were three Good ones and even three Good ones suggests that good people still more than bad ones.
Well, and finally: there are as many as 121 Sharikovs among us, of which P.P. only one. Chaynikov -17 (it’s good to introduce yourself when a traffic cop stops you on the road). And about politics. There are 39 Zyuganovs living in Moscow, four Yeltsins. Plus varieties: Yeltsin - 1, Eltsin -2, Elson - 3. Chernomyrdins - 31, Chernomordovs - 1, Chernomordikovs - 1, Chernomordikovs - 5, Lenins - 6, Krupskys - 36, Stalins - 3.
Ivanovs are the most common in Moscow - 21,833 subscribers. Behind them are not the Petrovs at all, as one might assume, but the Kuznetsovs - 17440. The Petrovs are in third place - 9953, pushing out the legitimate Sidorovs, of whom there are also a lot.
