For many centuries, the choice of a name for a boy was approached thoroughly and seriously. After all, the boy must grow up to be a brave, strong and dexterous representative of the stronger sex, who will be able to cope with the role of a hunter or a brave warrior and brave defender of the family. As a result, the names of the boys were intended to emphasize strength and masculinity.

Thinking about how to name the boy, you need to focus on this option, in which both an adult brutal form and a soft nursery are used. Experts in psychology advise making the choice of a name for a rude and cruel boy only with diminutive names - this will make his temper the softest.

In particular, Maxim can be called Masik, Maxik, Masi. Alexey - Leshkoy, Lesha, Lenechkoy. If the baby is very timid, tender and weak, shy, it is much better to choose the most strict name for the boy, in other words, the adult form of the name. In this case, Maxim should be called Max, and Alexei - Lehoy or Alexei.

A competent choice of a name for a baby can help bring up some qualities in a boy.

The choice of a name for a newborn baby is a very responsible matter, because the fate of the child depends on this decision of the parents. Moreover, parents should be responsible for choosing a name for a boy.

A man's name is something that should be proud of, and that every man should wear with dignity throughout his life. All boys dream of being strong, dexterous and successful, but they also want their name to be just as strong and beautiful, and to the greatest extent emphasize their courageous strength and beauty!

Today, there are thousands of different names when it comes to choosing a name for a boy, and parents now have a lot to choose from. Parents are no longer limited to choosing from traditional names that have been passed down from generation to generation. However, when choosing a name for your child, it is necessary to take into account not only fashion trends, political and religious views, but also the season.

It is known that at different times of the year, children are born with completely different characters. Therefore, knowing the natural color of the name and the date of birth, you can choose the right names for boys by month, the meaning of these names can successfully develop qualities that your child lacked from birth, or, conversely, muffle unwanted ones.

Boys born in winter, always very talented, strong-willed, purposeful, thinking, but, at the same time, in family life they experience difficulties due to their quarrelsomeness, intransigence, the need to argue over trifles and be sure to gain the upper hand. They do not spare themselves in their work, therefore they achieve high results. They are difficult to be confused because they are confident in what they are doing. Many have a tough disposition, tough, domineering, stubborn, proud. These qualities are most pronounced in those born in December, weaker - in February, "January" children are more balanced. Therefore, we advise you to give winter children "soft" melodic names so as not to aggravate the character traits laid down by the harsh winter.

Spring people are easily vulnerable physically and mentally. They are indecisive, touchy, windy, selfish, squeamish. Most often, these people are gifted, but insecurity prevents them from becoming leaders. Every word, deed is weighed, attentively listen to the opinion of the interlocutor. They are more willing to accept the role of followers, although they think correctly. They are stubborn, selfish, cautious, malleable to flattery, not devoid of self-admiration. They have a subtle sense of humor, have a good memory and quickly grasp everything. March men pay great attention to their appearance, often look in the mirror. They make good diplomats and orators. Spring babies need to be given "hard" sounding names to counter their unstable nervous system and psyche.

Summer has a beneficial effect on those born at such a time.

"Summer" children are kind, but often cowardly and spineless. They are easily influenced, emotional and impressionable, they like risk, proud, courageous and persistent in achieving the goal, active.

Great hard work allows you to achieve success in business. Their kindness extends to other people's children, to animals, and hot temper does not develop into rancor. They are well versed in art. "Summer" children need to be given "firm" names to protect them from unwanted adversity.

Wise autumn, associated in our minds with maturity, experience, slowness, has endowed people born at this time with the appropriate traits. "Autumn" people are universal. They are reasonable, serious, comprehensively gifted, appreciate the accumulated experience and never repeat mistakes, they do everything slowly and deliberately. There are many pedants among them. They are thrifty, they know the value of money, they are thrifty. Diplomatic and principled, they are diligent and diligent in their work, adhere to a clear line of conduct, persistent in business, have a clear mind, an easy character. A clear and balanced character, dedication is conducive to strong marriages. Born in the fall, they rarely conflict in the family, they love children and animals. Among them are actors, philosophers, people of exact sciences. "Autumn" children can be given any name, since nothing can affect their natural character.

Therefore, the meaning of the name by months of the year can vary significantly. For example, "December" Alexey is in healthier than "summer" and "spring". Alyoshka is stubborn and persistent and often gets into conflict situations, unwillingly. He is an eternal fighter for justice, but adults sometimes get the impression that the boy is an incorrigible bully and bully. Pride will not allow him to prove that it was not he who was to blame for some scuffle, but his classmate, that he only wanted to restore justice. As a result, all the blame most often falls on himself.

"Summer" Alexey has less free freedom than "winter" or "autumn". He needs the support of friends, the approval of his actions by colleagues. Due to modesty, he is not always able to realize his ideas himself, he turns to friends and like-minded people for help. It is difficult to experience failures, painfully perceives criticism. His diplomacy and tact are very popular with girls. Has a good memory, quickly grasps everything new. Loves adventure literature, science fiction.

Alexey, born in the spring, is capable of deep feelings, but does not dare to express them. Suffers greatly from indecision. The emotional drama he experienced unsettles him for a long time. He is amorous, will not delve into the motives of the behavior of his beloved, for him her benevolence and sensitivity are enough. He prefers not to talk about feelings, since he is still not able to express their depth. She does not tolerate violence, pressure and even the influence of outsiders, but she does not know how to openly protest, tries to get rid of the presence of such people. Itself does not strive for power. He is not one of those who read morality or impose himself, which deserves the respect of colleagues, friends and especially his adored children, beloved wife.

"Autumn" Alexey is more confident in himself. It is not easy to talk to him, he analyzes every phrase, requires arguments from his partner, undeniable arguments, he himself always knows how to prove and defend his ideas. He is specific, laconic in conversation, has a sharp and lively mind. Initiative, practical, rational. But at the same time he is attentive to his colleagues, always ready to listen to everyone, discuss the work plan, and take into account the opinion of others. A tactful, correct and charming man. Winter and autumn give strength to Alexei's character. He gravitates towards the exact sciences, is practical and adventurous.

2. Preference for "masculine" names. Naming the baby Zhenya, Sasha, Valya, you can provoke ridicule over the boy in the future. Together with a non-decisive surname, such a naming may cause strangers to mistaken it for a girl.
3. Compliance with tradition. Despite the mixing of cultures and world integration, one should not call the baby a name from another tradition, which will be inharmonious with the Russian patronymic and surname.

The most popular old names are:

1. Matvey. Differs in hard work and perseverance, but at the same time isolation. Often chooses a profession that requires concentration and methodology - surgery, sports, banking.

4. Gordey. Differs in peacefulness and optimism. With external modesty, it has internal strength and energy. He is an interesting storyteller and attentive listener.
5. Luke. Despite the similarity with the verb "dissemble", this name denotes an honest person. The purposefulness of his character is combined with impulsiveness. He thinks about the solution to the problem and pushes hard along the path to achieving results. In defending his interests, he can show uncompromising and impetuousness.

Popular foreign names for boys: English and American

In English-speaking countries, the tradition of giving children two names is popular: personal and average. The first is the distinctive naming of the baby and is used in everyday life. The second is most often given in honor of a close relative, and in official documents it is indicated between the main name and surname.

If in the post-Soviet environment the names are of Greek, Latin, Old Russian origin, then in English culture, authentic names are predominantly popular:

• today in Great Britain boys are often called Pauls, David, George, Jacob, Alan, Mark;
• in the United States, sons are named Richard, William, Noah, Robert, Aaron.

How to choose a beautiful Muslim name?

In Muslim culture, the method of naming children in accordance with ancient documents is especially popular. The wrong choice of a name for a boy can become the reason for his bad luck, poverty, illness, laziness in the future, which pushes his parents to name him in honor of the saints: Muhammad, Abdul, Idris, Kadir, Rahim, etc.

Muslim culture is characterized by the same meaning for several names that differ in sound. For example, Hasan and Elmir mean beauty, and Zabir, Kavi and Ali characterize a strong and powerful person. It is noteworthy that there are no negative names, which explains the desire of parents to provide their children with a better destiny.

Muslim traditions are replete with names for beauty. You can name the boy Anvar (bright, bright), Jamil (handsome), Dilyair (sincere), Ihsan (merciful), Ramil (magic), Fazil (talented). If parents cannot independently resolve the issue of naming their son, they can contact the imam.

Before the revolution, the practice of using two names was widespread among Muslims on the territory of the Russian Empire. The child received the first name as a talisman. To protect his son from the evil eye, this name was hidden from strangers. The second was of lesser importance and was used in everyday life. In Soviet times, this tradition died out, but today there is a return to it.

Unusual and rare names

Calling sons by unusual names, parents seek to endow them with a bright personality. Such children can deviate from public opinion, and sometimes go against it. Wanting to achieve any success despite the influence of external factors, they can rely only on their perseverance and fortitude.

Parents are sometimes mistaken, calling their son a rare name in order to endow him with the qualities of a fighter. If for one part of boys it becomes an impetus for the formation of a bright individuality, with the help of which they achieve success under any circumstances, for another it becomes the cause of constant psychological discomfort.

For thoughtful calm children, a non-standard name is an annoying factor that attracts unnecessary attention. Calling the baby Oscar, Azat, Mikel or Radislav, parents give him not the strength to defend his beliefs, but a source of internal conflict. He is expected to have constant proof of his own solvency, while he needs solitude for the development of his personality.

A rare name should be combined with the child's surname and patronymic. Such combinations as Petrova Madonna Alekseevna or Kozlov Marcel Ivanovich sound disharmonious.

When naming a baby, they take into account the national and cultural characteristics of the mentality prevailing in society. For example, names of Slavic origin go well with names such as: Arkhip, Bronislav, Borislav, Lavrenty.

Choosing a name depending on the season

When choosing a name, parents are traditionally guided by the month of birth of their son. There is an opinion about the relationship between the seasons and certain character traits of the baby.

It is believed that children born in winter are stubborn and domineering. To mitigate these features, sons are given names containing soft sounds:

• Alexey;
• Leonid;
• Nikita;
• Paul;
• Basil.

Babies born in spring are distinguished by a romantic and sublime make-up. It is recommended to call them traditional male names to balance the subtle nature, give them courage and strength:

• Konstantin;
• Stepan;
• Bogdan;
• Egor;
• Sergey.

Children born in summer have a bold and kind-hearted character. To enhance these qualities, it is recommended to choose voiced naming conventions:

• Elizar;
• Philip;
• Denis;
• Yuri;
• Vitaly.

"Autumn" children are often distinguished by distrust and some egocentrism. To endow the baby with sociability and friendliness, simple sonorous naming conventions are chosen:

• Anton;
• Nazar;
• Jacob;
• Naum;
• Tikhon;
• Semyon.

Rating of the most popular modern names

Today there is a decline in interest in foreign names. Less and less often children are called in the old Russian manner. In 2017, boys were often given neutral names: Lions, Alexandras, Ivans, Maxims, Romanes, Rodions and Kirill. In the TOP of popular names there are also Daniils, Vladislavs, Gleb and Marks.

A name for a child is, without exaggeration, an important component of his future life. It is known that among the male names there are “strong” and “weak”, which have a certain energy and can endow a person with certain qualities. Therefore, before you give your son a name, be sure to familiarize yourself with its meaning.

In addition, parents need to remember that abbreviations of the name and affectionate nicknames can also affect the child's perception of his own self. It is worth alternating such expressions of love with the full name, and also, if possible, reducing their use when the child is already in school. Otherwise, an adult man may forever remain a soft and infantile "Vladik", although he had the makings of a strong Vlad.

If everyone knows about the "power" of the name Alexander and Vladimir, then there are less common names that many have forgotten.
