Its further development depends on how harmoniously the name reflects the personality. It should not only make a person an individual, but also not cause discomfort. Each parent is guided by their own preferences and tastes, but there are certain trends when choosing a name for a newborn.
Instructions
Step 1
There are parents who, like many years ago, do not think about what to name their baby. Their choice has already been made in favor of one of the spouses or one or another relative. This is due to the continuity of generations and family traditions. So you can often meet Ivan Andreevich, the son of Andrei Ivanovich, and so on.
Step 2
The choice of a name according to the calendar is one of the most widespread traditions of our time among Orthodox Christians. Such a choice will allow not only to choose an original name for the baby, but also to keep it unchanged during the sacrament of baptism. Choose a name according to the calendar corresponding to the first, eighth and fortieth days after birth.
Step 3
Not only the Orthodox calendar comes to help parents, but also the interpreter of names. This is a fairly wide list, with the given interpretation of the main personality characteristics inherent in the bearers of a particular name. In addition to the supposed standardized descriptions, there are instructions for raising such a child. It is everyone's business to listen to these tips and whether to believe them, but, as a list of names, many turn to them.
Step 4
Names, as well as outfits, also have their own peculiar fashion. Over time, fashion trends have properties to fade and change, and then again become relevant. So, in recent years, the statistics of registry offices in Russia is such that the most common names for girls are Anastasia, Elizaveta, Maria, Sophia, Milana, Valeria, Polina, Daria, Anna, and among boys, Alexander, Maxim, Matvey, Timofey, Nikita, Arseny, Daniel, Ivan, Artyom.
Step 5
Long gone are the days when the name of the baby was given a derivative from Soviet slogans or abbreviated from the names of prominent personalities, for example Vladilen (Vladimir Ilyich Lenin) or Dazdraperma ("Long live the first of May"). However, it is not uncommon that even now newborns are given exotic names, for example, Dolphin, Prince and Cosmos, as well as Cherry, Birch and Russia, are running around in gardens and courtyards.
