Choose a name for your baby. Description, meaning and origin of names.

When giving a name to a child, it is necessary to take into account that all the indicated characteristics are nothing more than prerequisites that can be easily corrected by proper upbringing.

Here we have collected names for both boys and girls. Choose a name for your baby and share your chosen names.

Before each parents, sooner or later the question arises: how to name the child. Some people think about the name of the future baby before pregnancy, others - before the birth or immediately after the birth of the child. Anyway, when choosing a name, we advise you to adhere to the following recommendations.

      1. The name should be easy to pronounce, have many options that are pleasant to the ear (Natasha, Nat, Tata, Tasha, Natalie, Natul).

      2. The name should evoke pleasant emotions, both from its owner and those around him.

      3. It is undesirable to name the child in honor of the father or mother. Having the same name a mother or daughter, father and son often cannot find a common language and live in a state of constant confrontation. In addition, such children often demonstrate capriciousness, irritability, and obstinacy.

      4. It is also not recommended to give a name in honor of deceased or deceased relatives, since it is believed that in this case the fate of his namesake may pass to the child.

      5. A rare, exotic name imposes certain obligations on a person. A child who does not exactly match his name will be embarrassed, and may grow closed.

      6. A child will grow up more contact and pleasant to communicate if diminutive forms are easily formed on his behalf (Valya, Valechka, Valyusha, Valentinka).

      7. The selected name must match the patronymic. For soft patronymic (Andreevna, Alekseevna, Dmitrievich) it is recommended to select a firm name (Olga, Inna, Svetlana, Victor). And vice versa, if the patronymic is firm (Petrovich, Pavlovich), then the child’s name should be soft (Andrey, Alexey, Sergey).

      8. Nowadays, many parents call their children the name of the saint on whose day the child was born. This is a very correct decision, since the child named in this way gains a heavenly patron for himself for the whole life. Since every day of the year the birthday of several saints is celebrated, it is recommended that you read the description of the life of these saints before choosing a name.
