When choosing a name for an unborn child, parents, first of all, should pay attention to the already existing patronymic and surname. After all, the euphony of the child's full name and his character depend on this choice, which is important in adult life.
Instructions
Step 1
The name and patronymic of the child must be of the same origin. Firstly, such a combination is more holistic and sounding, and secondly, it is more noble: Anna Nikolaevna, Ekaterina Petrovna, Alfiya Timurovna.
Step 2
If the middle name is short, then it is better to choose a long name and vice versa, with long middle names it is better to choose a short sonorous name. This facilitates the pronunciation of the name and patronymic as a whole, makes their combination pleasant to the ear: Nikolai Ilyich, Innokenty Petrovich, Lia Pavlovna.
Step 3
The name and patronymic should be consonant with each other. If the patronymic contains the sound "r", then it is better if it is also present in the name: Irina Dmitrievna. If there are many soft consonants in the patronymic, then the name may be similar to him in soft sound: Lev Ilyich.
Step 4
To make it convenient to pronounce the combination of the name and patronymic, you should choose a name that begins with a vowel and vice versa for a patronymic beginning with a consonant sound and vice versa: Peter Alexandrovich, Oleg Grigorievich, Maria Yakovlevna.
Step 5
It will be better if the stress in the name falls on the same syllable as in the middle name, so it will be more sonorous: Oleg Mikhailovich, Maria Valerievna.
Step 6
If hard consonants prevail in the child's patronymic, then it is "hard" from a psychological point of view, if soft consonants are "soft". To balance in this case the strong and soft sides of the child's future character, you can combine the “hard” name with the “soft” one and vice versa: Roman Alekseevich, Ilya Viktorovich.
Step 7
After you choose for yourself according to these criteria several suitable names for the unborn child, it is useful to familiarize yourself with their interpretation, look in the special literature, how the specific name and patronymic are related in their meaning, what qualities the child with the name you choose will be endowed with. All this will help you make the right choice and name the child beautifully and correctly, in accordance with his middle name.
