The meaning of the name makar. Relationships, marriage and family

We regularly tell you what names were in a particular month, as well as the most bizarre and exotic names that parents chose for their babies. And no, no, and one of the sibmas will write: but in our class of three boys, the name was Slava - I wonder, is that what they call it now?

Indeed, I wonder what names were popular in the years when they called us? Our parents? Our grandparents? We would very much like to find such statistics all over Russia, but, alas, we did not find it - if it was conducted, it was not digitized. But there was a very detailed statistics for the last 115 years for the Moscow region! We believe that it can (with a certain margin of error, of course) be considered the same for all major cities in the country. What names were popular in what years?

Top 10 most popular male names of the 20th century

# 1. Alexander The true Russian name is not at all a household name Ivan, but Alexander. Due to the fact that the parents of boys were more conservative and more often than the parents of girls, they gave their sons popular names, the name Alexander became not only the most popular male name of the century, but in general - the most popular among newborns of both sexes. Almost 5% of children are every twentieth child of the 20th century! - became Alexander. The popularity of the Alexandrovs has been gradually increasing since the beginning of the century, reaching a peak in the mid-50s: then 7.4% of all newborns received it. The second peak of popularity of Sashki, Sankov and Shurikov (although not so bright) came in the eighties. Nowadays, this name is ranked second in frequency.
	# 2. Sergei Who replaced Alexander? Sergei! From 60 to 1976, this name was the most popular among newborn boys. The peak of popularity fell on 1961 - then 6.8% of newborns received it. Today the name Sergei, of course, is not exotic, but rather rare - 13-15 place. Mom, can you take a closer look at this name?
No. 3. Vladimir Not surprised? And rightly so! After the death of Vladimir Lenin, the popularity of the name skyrocketed - it was the most popular with boys from 1932 to 1949. The peak of popularity reached in 1947 - then little Vovochki among newborns was 6.8%. After 1950, the name fell sharply in popularity - it did not become a rarity, but the parents definitely disliked it. A small surge of interest happened in 1970 (probably, boys were named after their fathers?). Today Volodka is at the end of the top ten popular names.
	No. 4. Alexei This name was not the most popular for long - 1977-79, it was then that parents got tired of calling the boys Alexandra and among the kids there were Sergei, diluted by Alexei. The name reached its peak frequency in 1975 - 5.3% of all newborns, but - a paradox! - it was then that it was not the most popular, the boys were called Sergei more often. Then the frequency of these two names began to decline, but the name of Sergei was abandoned more abruptly, so that during the decline in popularity, Alexei became the leader. In our time, the name has not been forgotten, but it no longer has its former popularity - in the sphere of parental preferences, it is somewhere on the border of the first ten names for boys.
No. 5 Nikolay It would seem that the name of the deposed Tsar Nicholas II should not have attracted the liberated proletarians, but no - it was from 1920 to 1931 that this name was the most popular in the country. The peak of popularity was in 1927 - 4.5% of all newborns. In fact, boys were named no less often after that - in 1949, for example, by the same 4.5%. But the sharply increased interest in the names Vladimir and, especially, Alexander did its job - Nikolai lost his leadership position. Today, not a trace of its former popularity remains - Kolya is sad in the third top ten ...
	# 6 Andrey The name has never been the most popular, and even the silver champion - third at best. It is interesting how the popularity of this name grew - until the early 50s it was used very rarely, but from 1952 to 1962 its popularity increased fivefold! Most often this name was given in 1970 - 3.9% of newborns. Nowadays, Andrei is located on the border of the 10 most popular names, alternating with Alexei, closing this list of champions.
No. 7 Victor We suppose you will not be surprised that the popularity of this name rose sharply in the 40s, because its meaning is "winner". Most often, Viti was called in 1946 and 1947 - then it was the third most popular after Vladimir and Alexander. Expectant mothers and boys note: today this beautiful and once popular name is given very rarely - it is not in the thirty most frequent names of boys. But his female version - Victoria - on the contrary, is liked by parents more and more and in 2015 she entered the top 5 for the first time.
	No. 8 Mikhail Nothing could affect the popularity of this name - throughout the 20th century it was given with approximately the same frequency. It was this stability in total that brought the bears the 8th place - the most popular name was never, but what, even in the top five popular names only got into the beginning of the XX century, and that's it! Most often, parents remembered him in 1958 - 6th place and 2.2% of newborns Mishutok. Today, in some regions, the name is even more popular than the previous one - in 2015 in Moscow it took 4th place among the names of boys. But in Novosibirsk Mishutki something has been translated ...
No. 9. Yuri As in the case of Viktor, the peak of the name's popularity is obvious - 1961, the flight of Yuri Gagarin, the first earthling in space. However, having paid tribute to the hero, the parents quickly switched to other names - the peak was really the peak, after five years the popularity of the name had halved! The name would not have made it into the list of the most beloved, if not for another peak of popularity - in 1937 boys were called Yura even more often than in 1961. And why - we do not know! Today you can safely call your son Yura and not be afraid that many namesakes will meet. In terms of popularity, the name is far beyond the third ten ...
	No. 10. Dmitry The name Dmitry was literally "remembered" in the 60s. If in 1961 0.68% of newborns received it, then in 1969 - 3.2%. From 1969 to 2000, Dmitry was invariably in the top five most popular names, and from 1989 to 1997 this name was even the second most popular after Alexander (and in parallel with him it was losing popularity, retreating under the onslaught of "old Russian" names). Today Dmitry is doing well, sharing the 7th-8th place with Egor and Nikita. A good choice: not too rare or too frequent a name, not too exotic or too hackneyed!

By D. and N. Winter

The meaning and origin of the name: "Blessed, happy" (Greek)

The energy of the name and character: The energy of the name Makar, and therefore, in many respects, the character of Makar himself, is primarily determined by such a quality as restraint. This name has sufficient strength, and the lack of plasticity is compensated by Makar's weak reaction to external influences. Sometimes a person with such a name looks a little chilly, he is often closed, at least it's hard to call him too sociable, but Makar is also no different in the absence of emotions. On the contrary, he has a significant inner strength, which, fortunately, is rarely spent on empty talk and useless daydreaming. Makar is a man of action, which, in fact, is proud of.

In general, most of the Makarov are characterized by significant pride and independence. However, he knows how to forgive and restrain his insults, while his negative emotions, although they do not have an easy way out, still do not accumulate in his soul, as it is noted for many other closed names. Instead, his energy gets a different direction - Makar uses it to concretely solve the problem that caused the conflict, while revenge is very rarely included in his plans. In addition, he does not have to hide his grievances also because he usually knows how to stand up for himself right away, preferring to "wave his fists" not after a "fight", but in the midst of such. Nevertheless, after the resolution of the conflict, he will not feel emotional feelings for the offender either.

Restrained, energetic, Makar has every chance to achieve significant success in any career and thereby satisfy his ambitious needs. He easily enters the team, and behind his reticence one can often see a willingness to help. Just do not try to use his ability to sympathize in selfish interests. The character is also favorable for a normal family life, if, of course, the principles of justice operate in the family. For the rest, you can wish Makar a little more openness in relations with loved ones and a sense of humor. This will help avoid some misunderstandings and life mistakes.

Secrets of communication: Restraint and internal good nature Makara often inclines people to try to subordinate Makar to their will, and it is very bad if, behind the external calmness, the person does not notice his displeasure. Yes, Makar may not show his mind, but he will simply calmly step over such an uninvited rider on his neck and is unlikely to return his disposition to him.

Name trace in history:

Macarius of Alexandria

Many different miracles of legend are attributed to Saint Macarius of Alexandria, a hermit and miracle worker, for whom communication with evil spirits, apparently, was quite commonplace. In any case, once, according to legend, the devils so overwhelmed the hermit, tempting him to leave the desert and return to Rome, that in response he lay down on the threshold of his cell and, putting his legs out, suggested: "Pull and drag me, demons , yourself, if you can, but with my own feet I will not go to Rome. "

As for the healing practice, then, as the "Life" describes, once a mare was brought to Macarius, or rather a woman, who was turned into this animal by witchcraft. After examining the patient, the saint judiciously turned to the relatives who had brought her: "You yourself are animals, if you are unable to discern what you see. This woman is not turned into anything, she is only bewitched and therefore seems to you a mare," and he sprinkled the woman's head holy water, after which everyone immediately saw that this was indeed not a mare, but a man.
