Giving a name to our child, we unwittingly predict some aspects of his fate. It was easier for the ancestors - they called the heir by the name of the saint, on the day of whose celebration the baby was born. Today, many are returning to this tradition again, others are trying to choose a name for the child in accordance with modern knowledge of numerology and astrology, and still others simply proceed from personal preferences.
There is an interesting hypothesis that the individual combination of the pitch of sounds in each name when pronouncing it excites different parts of the brain, which affects the formation of the carrier's personality.
It has long been noticed that the owners of names that sound tough and firm have the same firm and stubborn disposition, are distinguished by decisiveness and perseverance. (Boris, Igor, Zhanna, Oleg, Nadezhda, Alla).
On the other hand, soft-sounding names most often belong to docile and calm people. (Svetlana, Lilia, Mikhail, Vasily, Ilya).
There are names that combine hard and soft sounds. They are conditionally neutral and give their owners prudence and balanced persistence. (Alexander, Eugene, Olga, Love, Pavel).
When choosing a name for a baby, you need to check that it is easy to pronounce in combination with a middle name. It is not easy to immediately pronounce a name ending in two consonants, combined with a patronymic that begins with consonants: Eduard Dmitrievich, Alexander Grigorievich. Such names are often distorted, and each time a person anxiously waits for his name to be pronounced this time.
In addition, do not forget about your child's school years - a catchy, unusual name can cause peers to ridicule for many years.
There is no need to give the baby the name of a deceased relative, especially a tragically deceased one. Another curious study by sociologists showed that among bureaucrats the largest number of people with the name of their father: Aleksandrov Aleksandrovich, Sergeev Sergeevich, etc.
From early childhood, the child is already aware of the importance of his name, and if he does not like it, this is unlikely to have a beneficial effect on his future fate.
It's very easy to check this: take a moment when your baby is busy or passionate about something, and quietly call him by name. If the child immediately responds, then you have chosen the name for him correctly.
It is difficult to predict whether a name is suitable for a child. Let your intuition serve as the main adviser. An excellent way out is the fashionable trend now to give the baby a double name: having become old enough, the child himself will choose which one he likes best.
