Choosing a name for an unborn child is a very difficult task. Everyone has different tastes and opinions, but when making a choice, think about how the first name is combined with the patronymic and surname.
Instructions
Step 1
It is not recommended to name the child after the father. There are several reasons for this. First, some psychologists believe that in this case, the boy will grow up to be capricious and unbalanced. It is also believed that children, the namesake of their parents, take away their vital energy.
In addition, those around, and sometimes the owner of the name himself, have the impression that the parents have a little bit of imagination: “There are no other names, or what!”.
Step 2
It is recommended to choose short names for long patronymics, and vice versa. For example, a short name is suitable for such patronymics as Konstantinovich, Vsevolodovich, Stanislavovich - Oleg, Ilya, Andrey. And polysyllabic names - Alexander, Vycheslav, Anatoly - fit short patronymics - such as Ilyich or Lvovich.
Step 3
Try not to repeat too many vowels and consonants in the name and patronymic. Such combinations are difficult to pronounce. And refrain from consonant names. Many students and subordinates broke their language and memory when communicating with Vladislav Vyacheslavovich or Vadim Vladimirovich.
Step 4
You should not choose a name that ends with the same letter with which the middle name begins. For example, Ivan Nikolaevich. In this case, when pronouncing, part of the name is, as it were, "lost" in the middle name. And even more so, you shouldn't come up with a combination like Kirill Illarionovich. At first glance, it seems to be beautiful and easy to remember, but try to pronounce it the first time.
Step 5
It is important that the name is combined with the patronymic also on a linguistic basis. That is, a Russian name should be invented for the usual Russian patronymics. And, accordingly, something suitable for foreign ones too. Especially now that unusual names are in vogue. Originality is of course good, and really, why should a boy be tenth, say, Artyom in the yard or to class. But John Alekseevich Petrov will also sound strange.
Step 6
You should not choose a name that, in combination with a patronymic, completely duplicates the name and patronymic of someone from your acquaintances or famous people. For example, combinations: Vladimir Ilyich, Mikhail Sergeevich or Nikita Sergeevich give rise to quite definite associations. Consider if your son needs it.
