50 Badass Boy Names

Just as with the last 50, we’ve tried to choose boys’ names that either have badass meanings or are linked to men with serious badass kudos.

1. Audie

Audie is an Irish name that evolved from Edward, meaning rich guard.

In 1942, Audie Murphy was 16 and so slight that he passed out during military training. That didn’t stop him from going to war, where he contracted malaria and still took on and beat a platoon of Germans single-handedly. He later became a famous actor, starring in more than 40 movies.

2. Axel

Axel is the Medieval Dutch form of Absalom, which means my father is peace.

This name may not have a badass sounding definition, but Axel Rose, the lead singer of hard rock band Guns n Roses, is tough by any definition.

3. Ayrton

Ayrton is an English name for a farm on the River Aire.

Ayrton Senna da Silva was a racing driver who drove a 1200 horsepower car at 200 mph and once saved the life of a fellow driver by stopping and running back along the track, dodging other vehicles, and giving him first aid.

4. Bjørn

Bjørn comes from the Old Norse word for bear.

Bjørn Ironsides was the badass Norse Viking Chief and King of Sweden. This could make Bjørn a suitable intimidating baby boy’s name for those who have Scandinavian roots.

5. Boris

The meaning of Boris is unclear. It could be wolf, or it could come from Slavic elements meaning battle and glory.

If you are in the market for a tattoo, Boris is the seriously badass artist who owns Boris Tattoo, a world-famous studio.

6. Bowie

Bowie comes from the Gaelic word buidhe, meaning yellow, fair-haired.

Originally a surname, Bowie has found popularity as a first name, mostly thanks to English music legend David Bowie. After his death, the name appeared on the top 1,000 boys’ name charts in the U.S.

7. Brick

Brick began as an English slang term. Someone who was a good brick was considered a good, decent person.

In the U.S. comedy series The Middle, the youngest son in the Heck family was Brick. His parents hoped that by giving him a cool name, he would grow up into an edgy, cool adult.

8. Bruce

Bruce is a Norman name that indicates someone who is from the town of Brix in France.

Bruce Springsteen, American singer, songwriter, and musician, was born in 1949, a time when the name Bruce was at its peak of popularity in the U.S. From a fictional standpoint, Bruce is the first name of Batman’s true identity.

9. Camazotz

Camazotz is an Ancient Mayan name meaning death bat.

Pronounced Cama-Zots, this was the name of a hardcore figure in Mayan mythology who, in the form of a man with bats wings, brokers a deal with mankind. It is thought that Camazotz was the inspiration for Batman.

10. Carl

Carl is a German name that means either man or warrior.

Carl Akeley, a respected conservationist, was once attacked by a leopard that bit down on his arm. Akeley forced his arm further into the cat’s throat, causing it to gag and let go. He then killed it with his bare hands, threw it over his shoulder, and went back to camp.

11. Christopher

Christopher comes from Christos, meaning anointed.

Christopher Lee is best known for his horror films, but he worked in military intelligence during WWII, released a heavy metal album at the age of 88, and is said to be the partial inspiration for James Bond.

12. Colt

Colt is short for Colton and means Charcoal town.

In 2019, Colt was ranked at number 210 on the top boys’ names list of the U. S. Social Security Administration.

13. Cooper

Cooper is an English boy’s name meaning barrel maker.

Cooper has that surname-as-a-first-name chic as well as being a badass name, especially for the child of a brewer or someone in a profession that makes or uses barrels.

14. Damon

The name Damon comes from Greek mythology and means to tame.

In Greek legend, Pythias was imprisoned and allowed to go temporarily free if Damon took his place. Damon did so, willingly, and Pythias returned before Damon was executed in his place.

15. Dex

Dex is short for Dexter, which means one who dyes.

Dex has a short, choppy, badass feel and has become popular across the world. In the Netherlands, it is number 37 on the most used boys’ name of the year list.

16. Donovan

Donovan comes from the Irish surname, which means descendant of Donndubhan. Donndubhan means brown, dark.

Donovan may be the ideal choice for someone of Irish heritage who is looking for an edgy, badass boys’ name.

17. Enzo

Enzo may come from the German Anzo, meaning giant, or it can be an abbreviation of names ending in Enzo.

Enzo Ferrari started out as a test car driver, became a race driver, started his own racing team, and founded one of the world’s premier supercar manufacturers.

18. Ferris

Ferris is a surname related to Fergus, which means man of vigor.

The definition of Ferris is enough to make it sound pretty badass, but the name itself screams alpha. Then there’s Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, in which the title character skips school, defeats his principal, and jumps on a parade float.

19. Faust

Faust is derived from the Latin Faustus, meaning auspicious, lucky.

Johann Georg Faust was a traveling German alchemist, magician, and astrologist on whom the legend of the man who sold his soul to the devil is based. This, in itself, may not be badass, but the name certainly is.

20. Flynn

Flynn is an anglicized form of the Irish Flann, which means red.

Flynn has become increasingly popular in the U.S. since the beginning of the 2000s and could be an excellent badass choice for someone with Irish heritage.

21. Gibson

Gibson means son of Gib, and Gib is short for Gilbert, meaning bright pledge.

In 1894, Orville Gibson began to sell the instruments he made from his home in Kalamazoo, Michigan. And so was founded the coolest guitar manufacturing company ever, Gibson.

22. Gotz

Gotz is short for Gottfried, which means peace of God.

Götz von Berlichingen was a German mercenary known as Iron Hand because of his prosthetic. In a 1504 siege, he was told to surrender, to which he replied, “Leck mich am Arsch,” the first recorded instance of “kiss my ass.”

23. Griffin

Griffin is the Latinized form of Gruffudd, an Old Welsh name that means strong lord or strong prince.

We give Griffin badass status partly because it is an ancient name that evokes images of hand-to-hand combat in hard-fought, muddy battles, and partly because of the part lion, part eagle creature of legend.

24. Holden

Holden is a place name which in Old English means deep valley.

Whether you think Holden Caulfield from The Catcher in the Rye is a badass or a whiner, there’s no denying the name says rebel. This may be why it’s seen a surge of popularity in the U.S.

25. Hugh

Hugh is an English name that means heart, mind, spirit.

Hugh Glass was an American frontiersman, and legend has it he was mauled by a grizzly and left for dead by his companions. He set his broken leg, let maggots eat his wounds, and reached the nearest settlement after six weeks of travel.

26. Ignatius

The meaning of Ignatius is unclear, but it may be from a Roman family name that was changed to resemble the Latin ignis meaning fire.

Ignatius makes the badass list for no other reason than we think it sounds like a hardcore badass name. It can also be shortened to Iggy, as in the Grandfather of Punk, Iggy Pop.

27. Ivar

Ivar is an Old Norse name meaning yew bow, warrior.

Ivar has that edgy badass feel to it, and we’re not the only ones who think so. This name remains steadily popular in the Netherlands and Sweden, making it a suitable choice for families with Dutch or Scandinavian heritage.

28. Kurt

Kurt is a short, German version of Conrad, which means brave counsel.

Singer-songwriter and frontman of Nirvana, Kurt Cobain, may be one of rock’s most compelling badasses. Since his death, the depth of his emotional turmoil has only enhanced his standing.

29. Jack

An English derivative of John, Jack means God is gracious.

At the age of 50, Captain Jack Ward stole the ship of a stranger, crewed it with his drinking buddies, and set off on the high-seas. Over the next 20 years, he became an infamous pirate and is the inspiration for Captain Jack Sparrow.

30. Jax

Jax is a short form of Jackson, which is an Old English surname that means son of Jack.

Jackson has cropped up intermittently as a first name, but Jax became hugely popular after Sons of Anarchy introduced the world to hardass biker Jax Teller.

31. Jonas

Jonas is a Northern European form of Jonah, meaning dove.

Jonas Salk developed the vaccine for polio, injected into his own body to test it, and refused to profit from it. Not only did he save roughly 1 million people a year from death or permanent disability, but he also turned his back on billions of dollars. Pretty badass, in our opinion.

32. Joseph

Joseph is from the Hebrew name Yosef, which means he will add.

Joe Boyle fought a shark, built a gold mining empire, formed a hockey team that played in the Stanley Cup, established his own machine gunner company, received military honors from five countries, and stole the Romanian crown jewels back from a vault in Moscow. If the name Joe is too commonplace for you, you could opt for the name Boyle.

33. Jude

Jude is an English form of Judas, which likely means praise.

Jude benefits from being one of those names that’s mainstream enough not to be weird but unusual enough to be uncommon. A gender-neutral name, it’s currently more popular for boys.

34. Jett

This name comes from the English word jet, meaning an intense, dark, black.

The name Jett conjures up an image of someone who is so incredibly badass, they become the definition of the word.

35. Leif

Leif comes from the Old Norse name Leifr which means descendant, heir.

Viking Leif Erikson, a Norse explorer born in Iceland, is thought to have been the first European to have set foot in North America. He established Vinland in the area around the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

36. Leo

The name Leo is from the Latin word for Lion.

Having lost one eye, Leo Major refused to be sent home from WWII. He turned down his first Distinguished Conduct Medal but accepted the second for single-handedly liberating the Dutch town of Zwolle and was awarded a bar to his DCM in the Korean War.

37. Logan

Logan is a Scottish name that means little hollow.

Although modern-sounding, Logan dates back centuries, even as a first name. However, it took off in 1974, which is the same year Wolverine first appeared in the Marvel universe.

38. Lyle

Lyle evolved from the Norman French word l’isle, meaning island.

Lyle Bouck Jr. was a 20-year-old lieutenant when the 18-man unit he was leading held off an entire division of 500 German soldiers. This action resulted, 37 years later, in every member of the platoon being decorated.

39. Macsen

Macsen is an Old Welsh version of Maximus, which means the greatest.

Max is a little mainstream, while Maximus is a bit pretentious. That’s why we think Macsen hits the Goldilocks point of just right in the badass boys’ name stakes.

40. Magnus

Magnus is a Latin name meaning great.

Magnus is the given name of countless Vikings, kings, and dukes of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, as well as two holders of the “World’s Strongest Man” title. We think that’s enough for Magnus to be an intimidating name.

41. Ragnar

Ragnar evolved from the German name Reynold meaning wise army.

Once fairly popular name in Norway and Iceland, it’s less popular today. But Ragnar still has the sound and the feel of a badass, ax-wielding Viking, so if you’re brave enough, this may just be the name for your child.

42. Roald

Roald is an Old Norse name that means famous ruler.

Roald Amundsen was a Norwegian explorer who led the first known expedition to sail through the Northwest Passage and was the first man to reach the South Pole.

43. Slade

46. Tycho

Tycho is derived from the old Norse name Thor, meaning thunder.

Tycho Brahe proved it is possible to be an academic and a badass at the same time. The Danish mathematician and astronomer had his nose chopped off during a duel at a wedding reception over who was the better mathematician.

47. Waverly

Waverly is an English name with the rather beautiful meaning restless meadow.

In WWII, Waverly Woodson landed at Omaha Beach with no weapon and 50 pounds of medical equipment. With shrapnel in his butt and thigh, he spent 30 straight hours saving the lives of hundreds of men, all while under enemy machine gunfire.

48. Witold

Yonatan is a Hebrew name that means God has given.

Yonatan Azarihab was stabbed multiple times during a random attack, and the knife used was left embedded in his neck. Instead of keeling over, he pulled the knife from his neck and stabbed his attacker with it. Hardcore, huh?

50. Yusuf

Yusuf is an Arabic and Turkish form of Joseph, meaning he will add.

Yusuf Alchagirov was an 80-year-old Russian shepherd who was attacked by a bear, which he fought, and, at some point in the fight, Yusuf was thrown off a cliff. He sustained bruises and was released from the hospital the next day. There’s no word on the bear’s injuries.

50 Badass Girl Names

Badass is a subjective term. We’ve tried to choose badass girls’ names that have tough meanings or are held by badass women, real or imaginary.

51. Aella

Aella is an ancient Greek name meaning whirlwind.

In Greek mythology, Aella was one of the Amazons who was known for going to war wielding her double ax.

Agnes Randolph was a Scottish Countess known for her bravery and strength. For over five months, Agnes held Dunbar castle in the face of an intimidating English army who laid siege to her citadel.

53. Alexia

This Greek name means defender of mankind.

If you’re looking for a contemporary, but unique, name, this one fits the bill. For 2019, it was only number 632 on the Social Security Administration’s list of popular names.

54. Amy

Amy Johnson was the first woman to fly solo from London to Australia. This badass woman held several international records for flight times when she died during a fight in World War II.

55. Azima

Azima is an Arabic name that means great, powerful, or magnificent.

With this name, your little one couldn’t be anything but hardcore. It should also be noted that this is the feminine form of Azim, which means perseverance in Turkish. Which, to our mind, makes it even better.

56. Bertha

Bertha is a Germanic name meaning bright, famous.

58. Blaze

The name Blaze evolved from Latin and means lisping.

If you want to give your child a name that shapes their personality, then Blaze has to be near the top of the list of badass girl’s names. It’s contemporary and has a tough sound to it.

59. Cleo

Cleo is short for Cleopatra, a Greek name meaning Glory of the Father.

Cleopatra may be a little clunky for a child. However, shorten it to Cleo, and you have the connotations with the badass queen and a short and choppy format that conveys “little ass-kicker.”

60. Delilah

A Hebrew name, Delilah, means delicate, weak, or languishing.

Because of the story of Samson and Delilah, the name has negative connotations for many. Flying in the face of this negativity is what makes this such a badass name, and, in 2019, it had risen to number 88 in the U.S. baby name charts.

61. Edith

Edith is from the Old English Eadgyð, meaning wealth and war.

British nurse Edith Cavell was executed by a German firing squad in World War I after aiding the escape from occupied Belgium of around 75 soldiers and 100 civilians, giving shelter to them in her home before helping them across the border.

63. Faiza

Sometimes spelled Fayza, this name is popular enough to be mainstream, but not so common you’ll be bumping into other little victorious badasses with the same name.

Also known as “Umm al-Banayn,” Fatma Al-Fihri founded the al-Qarawiyyin mosque in Fez, Morocco, in 859 CE. The mosque developed an institution of learning that eventually became the University of al-Qarawiyyin, the oldest learning institution globally.

65. Finley

Finley might be a good choice if you have Scottish or Irish ancestry, and you have a feisty little girl who’s ready to take on the world.

66. Frankie

The names Frank and Francis both evolved from the name of the Ancient Germanic tribe, the Franks.

A popular badass girl’s name of the 1930s, Frankie slowly became less popular. However, it’s recently become fashionable again and has become more popular every year in the U.S. since 2015.

67. Hattie

Hattie is a shortened form of Harriet, which evolved from Old English and means leader of the army.

Hattie is an intimidating baby name not only because of its meaning, but also because of the badassery of Hattie Gossett, Hattie Lawton, and Hattie Caraway.

78. Lilith

The name Lilith is thought to have come from the Mesopotamian demons called lilû and means of the night or night monster.

82. Milunka

Milunka is a Slavic name meaning dear.

Milunka Savić cut her hair, dressed in men’s clothes, and rode off to war in place of her brother. She saw ten deployments before she was injured, and her true gender was discovered. Savić is the most decorated female combatant of all time.

83. Nila

Nila means dark blue in Sanskrit.

We like Nila because it manages to sound dark and edgy while at the same time being feminine. Nila is also modern-sounding, although it was briefly popular in the U.S. during the 1930s.

84. Nikita

Nikita is a Russian name meaning victor.

A short and choppy name with punch, Nikita is badass, without being too aggressive. It became briefly popular in the U.S. during the late 1980s, probably due to the Elton John song of the same name.

85. Omu

89. Ruby

Ruby is derived from the Latin word ruber, which means red.

Ruby was also the name of a brief yet incredibly badass rock band formed by a post-Credence Clearwater Revival John Fogerty. Ruby Rose is an American actress who played Batwoman on the CW network before abruptly departing from the show. Quitting a hit television show is a hardcore move, we think.

90. Sela

Sela means rock in Hebrew.

When we were looking at badass names, we researched those associated with rock. While we meant rock as in music, this name cropped up, and we decided it sounded pretty tough.

91. Sojourner

Pronounced seev in Swedish, this was the name of Thor’s wife, although, in some places, you will see this written as Sif.

93. Stevie

Stevie is short for Stephanie or Steven and means that which surrounds.

We think there is something inherently badass about girls’ names that are also boys’ names, and we’re not the only ones. This currently ranks as the 524th most popular girl’s name in the U. S. in 2019. Stevie Nicks, a famed American singer who has lived life on her own terms, is one famous example of this name.

94. Tarja

Tarja Turunen fronted Nightwish, one of the most prominent symphonic metal bands ever. Talent and sheer force of will took them from a Scandinavian band to a regular festival headliner.

95. Tempest

If you are brave enough to tempt fate, then consider adding Tempest to your list of badass girl’s names. With its dark and stormy connotations, we think this name is ripe for recognition.

96. Thérèse

Thérèse is the German and Nordic version of Theresa, which probably comes from the Greek word for summer.

Thérèse Bonney was an American photographer who spent much of World War II traveling through Europe documenting the plight of children.

97. Thora

Thora is an Ancient Scandinavian feminine version of Thor and means thunder.

Giving your child a name you hope will influence their personality is an ancient tradition. If you want to go down that road, then naming your child Thora is certainly giving her a badass headstart.

98. Tomoe

A Japanese name, Tomoe, means either earth or death.

Tomoe Gozen was an onna-bugeisha. These were Japanese women of noble birth who fought alongside the samurai. It is unclear whether she was an actual person or a fictional creation, but either way, she is frequently celebrated.

99. Vida

Vida evolved from the Roman word vita, which means life.

Pronounced Vee-da, we were surprised to discover this modern, edgy sounding name was relatively popular in the U.S. during the mid-1800s. Perhaps it’s time for a Vida revival.

Viv is short for Vivian, which came from the Latin word vivus and means alive.

Choosing a name for your baby with the intent of inspiring some hardcore badassery may not be everyone’s idea of the right thing to do, but it does harken back to ancient naming traditions found around the world.

Don’t blame us if you start to regret your action when, in a few years, you have a defiant little ass-kicker on your hands.

100 Unique Boy Names That Start With «E» — Popular Baby Boy «E» Names

Preparing for the arrival of a new baby can be an exciting time in any family’s life. To get ready for this seismic shift, you might prepare and decorate the nursery, pick a unique baby shower theme, solidify your birthing plan, or simply work on getting used to juggling a million things on your «to do» list at once. But one of the most exciting and important tasks on your plate is probably choosing a name for your baby.

It’s a task that can feel overwhelming. After all, there’s an endless list of names to choose from. One way to start honing in on a name could be to think about your heritage or culture. Maybe you’ll realize that you really want a baby name that reflects your family’s history. Along the same lines, you could consider passing along the name of a family member, whether that’s your name, the name of your parent, or the name of another close relative.

Another way to start narrowing down your list of names is to think in terms of categories. For example, maybe you like baby names inspired by cities, or names inspired by biblical figures or literary characters.

You can also start thinking about baby names in terms of the letters they begin with. If you’re looking for a good first or middle name that starts with «E» for a baby boy, take note that according to recent Social Security Administration data, the most popular names for boys that start with «E» include Elijah, Ethan, and Ezra, while the names Ermias and Eliel are experiencing a sharp rise in popularity. If you’re looking for something unique, read on — this list has plenty of meaningful names to help you find inspiration. From traditional baby boy names to unique ideas for boy names, there’s sure to be an «E» name here that sparks an idea for what to name your baby boy.

90,000 tips for choosing and rating fashionable male names. Male names, letter B

Male names have a special status in Russia. It is male names that underlie the majority of Russian surnames, as well as the surnames of other peoples of Russia. The names of many settlements go back to male names — to the names of their owners or founders. But, most importantly, from male names in the Russian tradition, it is customary to form another type of naming — patronymic. Therefore, even in the «godless» 20th century, when the choice of a name for a child ceased to depend on the saints, and the Orthodox people (some of them) began to experiment with a personal name «to the fullest», parents still approached the choice of names for their sons more judiciously, realizing that his name would later become the basis of the patronymics of their grandchildren. For this reason, the list of male names used by the Orthodox remained very constant — only rare «inventions» from time to time expanded its composition.

Actually, this rule works in the 21st century as well. Despite the huge changes that have taken place in the «male part» of the Russian name, over the past more than 20 years, the composition of these names has not changed much. The bulk continue to be made up of names that are often called traditional: they are drawn from the Orthodox calendar, called the holy calendar.

But how their frequency has changed! For example, the frequency of using the most common or, as they would say now, the most «rating» name for the entire second half of the 20th century in Russia, the name Alexander for 90-ies of the XX century and for the first decade of the current century decreased by 35%. The number of cases of naming newborn boys named Andrei in Moscow decreased by exactly the same amount. Aleksei and Igor were called half as often, and the rating of the name Sergei fell by as much as 75%. But in my youth, Sasha, Andryusha, Seryozha and Igor made up the majority of my classmates!

A reasonable question arises: in favor of what kind of name did all these once extremely popular names give up their «palm trees»? Who now occupies the first places in the ranking?

And here we come to the most pleasant. Back in the 60s — 80s of the last century, Russian onomatologists sounded the alarm: the Russian personal name is rapidly declining, literally shrinking. Almost half of all boys in Russia have less than 10 names! Active work began to popularize … traditional Russian names. Many books and reference books were published that tell about naming traditions, about what other names existed in Russia in previous centuries. Indeed, thanks to a good knowledge of Russian literature of the 18th-19th centuries, every schoolchild at that time knew that the names Frol, Foma, Yerema and Demyan were the names of characters in Russian fairy tales and fables, but not the names of real people — their contemporaries. And the efforts of scientists were not in vain. It didn’t happen right away. The process took, as we see, more than 2 decades. However, an anecdote that arose in the early years of the 21st century speaks about the fact that «the process has begun.»

Parents bring the boy to kindergarten for the first time. And, worrying, they ask the teacher:

— You understand, we named our son Timothy. Are we afraid that they will tease him here?

To which the teacher, laughing, replies:

— And who will tease? Foma yes Yerema?

Well, by the way, while the names Form and Erema (that is, Eremei) have not yet become among the most common (they are absent in the rafting of the first 50 names), but the cases of their assignment to newborn boys in Moscow and in Russia as a whole are no longer are an exceptional event. On the other hand, a large number of other names appeared or, it would be more correct to say, returned to our name list, which, as it seemed only 30-40 years ago, had already finally gone into history and folklore. Yes, in fact, not even in folklore — all the jokes in those days were filled with Vovochka, that is, Vladimir (depending on the joke, this either upset me or made me proud of my name). And Foma and Yeryoma were not even allowed into jokes. What are the ratings!

As we can see from the table below, the top position in the ranking of the most common names in Moscow given to newborn boys continues to be occupied by the name Alexander. But not far ahead of the rest. The once very rare name Artem (Artem, Artemy) almost caught up with him in prevalence. Maxim and Ivan are catching up with Alexander in the rating. Their popularity has grown markedly: the names Artem and Artem (well, simply because the letter Y is still not always indicated) — by 260%; named after Maxim — by 157%, and named after Ivan — by 151%. And, for example, the name Daniil (with variants Danil and Danila) has «jumped» in popularity over the years by 660% and has taken the 6th place in the rating among Muscovites!

But if we talk about records, then mention should be made, first of all, of the names Makar, whose prevalence increased by 12433% (!!!), Plato (3628%), Matvey (3526%) and Mark (2376%). All of them are now included in the top 50 most rated names given by Moscow parents to their sons in 2011.

I am sure that the coming years will bring many more surprises. And we will be watching this closely.

Maksimov, General Director of the IIC «History of the Family».

Male names have a special status in Russia. It is male names that underlie the majority of Russian surnames, as well as the surnames of other peoples of Russia. The names of many settlements go back to male names — to the names of their owners or founders. But, most importantly, from male names in the Russian tradition, it is customary to form another type of naming — patronymic. Therefore, even in the «godless» 20th century, when the choice of a name for a child ceased to depend on the saints, and the Orthodox people (some of them) began to experiment with a personal name «to the fullest», parents still approached the choice of names for their sons more judiciously, realizing that his name would later become the basis of the patronymics of their grandchildren. For this reason, the list of male names used by the Orthodox remained very constant — only rare «inventions» from time to time expanded its composition.

Actually, this rule works in the 21st century as well. Despite the huge changes that have taken place in the «male part» of the Russian name, over the past more than 20 years, the composition of these names has not changed much. The bulk continue to be made up of names that are often called traditional: they are drawn from the Orthodox calendar, called the holy calendar.

But how their frequency has changed! For example, the frequency of using the most common or, as they would say now, the most «rating» name for the entire second half of the 20th century in Russia, the name Alexander for 90-ies of the XX century and for the first decade of the current century decreased by 35%. The number of cases of naming newborn boys named Andrei in Moscow decreased by exactly the same amount. Aleksei and Igor were called half as often, and the rating of the name Sergei fell by as much as 75%. But in my youth, Sasha, Andryusha, Seryozha and Igor made up the majority of my classmates!

A reasonable question arises: in favor of what kind of name did all these once extremely popular names give up their «palm trees»? Who now occupies the first places in the ranking?

And here we come to the most pleasant. Back in the 60s — 80s of the last century, Russian onomatologists sounded the alarm: the Russian personal name is rapidly declining, literally shrinking. Almost half of all boys in Russia have less than 10 names! Active work began to popularize … traditional Russian names. Many books and reference books were published that tell about naming traditions, about what other names existed in Russia in previous centuries. Indeed, thanks to a good knowledge of Russian literature of the 18th-19th centuries, every schoolchild at that time knew that the names Frol, Foma, Yerema and Demyan were the names of characters in Russian fairy tales and fables, but not the names of real people — their contemporaries. And the efforts of scientists were not in vain. It didn’t happen right away. The process took, as we see, more than 2 decades. However, an anecdote that arose in the early years of the 21st century speaks about the fact that «the process has begun.»

Parents bring the boy to kindergarten for the first time. And, worrying, they ask the teacher:

— You understand, we named our son Timothy. Are we afraid that they will tease him here?

To which the teacher, laughing, replies:

— And who will tease? Foma yes Yerema?

Well, by the way, while the names Form and Erema (that is, Eremei) have not yet become among the most common (they are absent in the rafting of the first 50 names), but the cases of their assignment to newborn boys in Moscow and in Russia as a whole are no longer are an exceptional event. On the other hand, a large number of other names appeared or, it would be more correct to say, returned to our name list, which, as it seemed only 30-40 years ago, had already finally gone into history and folklore. Yes, in fact, not even in folklore — all the jokes in those days were filled with Vovochka, that is, Vladimir (depending on the joke, this either upset me or made me proud of my name). And Foma and Yeryoma were not even allowed into jokes. What are the ratings!

As we can see from the table below, the top position in the ranking of the most common names in Moscow given to newborn boys continues to be occupied by the name Alexander. But not far ahead of the rest. The once very rare name Artem (Artem, Artemy) almost caught up with him in prevalence. Maxim and Ivan are catching up with Alexander in the rating. Their popularity has grown markedly: the names Artem and Artem (well, simply because the letter Y is still not always indicated) — by 260%; named after Maxim — by 157%, and named after Ivan — by 151%. And, for example, the name Daniil (with variants Danil and Danila) has «jumped» in popularity over the years by 660% and has taken the 6th place in the rating among Muscovites!

But if we talk about records, then mention should be made, first of all, of the names Makar, whose prevalence increased by 12433% (!!!), Plato (3628%), Matvey (3526%) and Mark (2376%). All of them are now included in the top 50 most rated names given by Moscow parents to their sons in 2011.

I am sure that the coming years will bring many more surprises. And we will be watching this closely.

A well-chosen name has a strong positive effect on a person’s character and destiny. But how do you pick the perfect name?

Sometimes parents try to choose a name before birth, but this prevents the child from forming. The name must be chosen already on the fact of birth. Extremely deeply and volumetrically analyzing the character of the boy. Astrological and numerological techniques have squandered all knowledge about the influence of a name on fate through the ages and have become nothing more than entertainment.

Yuletide calendars, without consulting a clean and seeing specialist, are also superficial knowledge. Which do not provide any real help in assessing the influence of names on the fate of the child.

And the lists of popular, happy, beautiful, melodious male names turn a blind eye to the individuality, energy, soul of the child and turn the selection procedure into an irresponsible game of parents into a fashion dictated by ignorance, unprofessionalism and selfishness.

Despite the fact that there are cultural interpretations of what male names mean, in reality the influence of the name on each boy is individual.

Various characteristics — positive traits of a name, negative traits of a name, choice of a profession by name, influence of a name on business, influence of a name on health, psychology of a name can only be considered in the context of a deep analysis of subtle plans (karma), energy structure, tasks for life and kind of a particular child.

The topic of name compatibility is generally an absurdity, which twists the internal mechanisms of the influence of a name on the state of its carrier into interactions of different people. And it cancels the entire psyche, the unconscious, energy and behavior of people. It reduces the entire multidimensionality of human interaction to one false characteristic.

The meaning of the name has no literal effect. For example, Victor, this does not mean that a young man will win everywhere. The name can block his heart center and he will not be able to give and receive love. On the contrary, it will help another boy to solve problems for love, greatly facilitate life and achieve goals. The third boy may not bring any effect at all, whether there is a name or not. Etc. Moreover, all these children can be born on the same day. And have the same astrological, numerological and other characteristics.

The most popular male names of 2015\2016\2017…2019 are also a delusion. Despite the fact that 95% of boys are called names that do not make life easier. You can only focus on a specific child.

The secret of a male name, as a program of the unconscious, a sound wave, vibration, is revealed by a special bouquet, primarily in a person, and not in the semantic meaning and characteristics of the name. And if this name does not fit, then it would not be some beautiful, melodious with a patronymic, astrologically accurate, blissful, it would still be a crooked empty shell.

Below are about 500 male names. Try to choose a few, the most suitable in your opinion for the child. Then if you are interested in the effectiveness of the influence of the name on fate,

The most beautiful boy names — a list, explanation and various facts

Modern parents have a wide choice of names for their future baby. Here you have old Ivan and Maria, and fashionable Milan and Miroslav. And then some Princes and Lucifers — now the kids are called as soon as they are! For those future mothers and fathers who are expecting a boy and do not want to call him a Star or a King, but are interested in beautiful and modern names for boys, male names for different tastes are presented below.

A question about beauty

A beautiful name or not is a very controversial and subjective question. For some, you can’t find a prettier name than Peter, and someone considers him rude and ridiculous, but Izbor, for example, is yes, this is the highest class. So there is no general rule on how to choose beautiful male names. And how then to be? After all, there are so many options!

You can rely on the ratings of popular opinion — if the name is popular, you can use it. However, these are far from all the factors that you should rely on when answering the question of how to choose a name for a boy. The interpretation of the name for many parents (especially mothers) is often also important, although the true character of a grown child does not always coincide with the meaning of the name assumed for him. What you absolutely need to pay attention to is the compatibility of the pronunciation of the name with the patronymic and surname. Sigismund Davydovich Pupkin is not the most digestible option, even if, according to the interpretation, a boy with a similar name begins to rule the world.

Many parents also resort to a similar method: they select several names they like during pregnancy (when the sex of the baby is already known, of course). They are spoken aloud when referring to the tummy. According to many, if a little one likes a name, he will certainly let you know, for example, he will kick his mother in the barrel.

Another option, if you can’t decide on the most beautiful guy’s name, is to just wait for him to be born. At the first glance at the baby, it will certainly become clear who he is — Grisha, Matvey or Seryozha.

Be that as it may, below are the most beautiful male names according to the opinions of the inhabitants of our vast country.

Adam

The name of the first man on earth is exactly what it means — «man». It is interesting that its initial interpretation was somewhat different — «made of clay», but then changed. Be that as it may, both of these interpretations of the name are fully justified for their first bearer — after all, it was from clay that the Lord created Adam.

The name is Hebrew; Adam, created in the image of God, is typologically compared with Jesus Christ and is revered as the universal father and progenitor of mankind on a par with the saints. Among Catholics, Adam is the patron saint of tailors and gardeners.

A boy with this name has such character traits as stubbornness, vulnerability, caution, sometimes imbalance, and at the same time sociability: he has a lot of friends. Such a guy, as a rule, is fond of sports, loves animals. In the family, he is a good father and husband, a loving son.

Alexander

Sasha and Shura are always held in high esteem. This beautiful guy’s name, which never ceases to be popular, is especially good for a patronymic — this is a win-win option for any name.

Alexander is translated from ancient Greek as «defender» or «protector of people» — perhaps that is also why this name is so loved by every generation. What mom doesn’t want her son to be a protector?

Sasha is known for his endurance, good health, love for sports and exercise. They are sociable, stubborn, ambitious, have great intelligence, honesty and a cheerful disposition. At the same time, such a name endows its owner with such features as authoritativeness, resentment, irascibility and conflict. As a rule, he is lucky in life. He considers himself a leader and strives to always be one.

Aleksey

Another ancient Greek beautiful name in the list of the most beautiful male names, which has also been loved for many decades, is Aleksey. Its meaning is the same as the previous one — all Lesha are also defenders. It is interesting that earlier there was another form of this name — Ales (also Oles is acceptable), but now it is considered obsolete.

As a rule, Alekseev’s intuition is well developed. Such boys are usually active and strong-willed, they know how to set a goal and go towards it, achieving their desires. Alyosha can boast of a fair amount of patience, as well as complaisance. For this they are valued by women, and the grown-up Alekseev succeeds in family life. They are benevolent, ambitious, loyal, but often lazy and unassembled.

Angel

In the list of modern male names there is one very beautiful and very unusual name — Angel. His female form is more widely known — Angelina or Angela, but recently boys have often been called this way. However, this name is still more common in English-speaking countries, where its forms such as Angel or Angey are very popular.

The name Angel also comes from Greek, in which it appeared, in turn, being formed from the Latin form Angelus. Its meaning is this and is — «angel» or «messenger». Boys with a similar name are honest and fair, know how and love to communicate with adults, have many friends among their peers, are friendly, almost always cheerful and cheerful. An angel usually succeeds in everything: both a career and relationships with women. He is successful in everything and achieves everything easily and with a constant smile. A person with this name is characterized by perseverance, stubbornness, determination, intolerance for gossip and discussions of other people, including himself.

Vladislav

This name is of Slavic origin, it means «possessing glory» or «good ruler». The female pair form of the name (Vladislav) is also very common in our country.

Clever, attentive, independent, assiduous, stubborn — this is how little Vladik is usually characterized. Men with this name know how to defend their opinion and stick to it. And they are also people of their word: if they have already said or decided something, then this is for sure.

Slava can be described as a firm, purposeful and self-confident person. He has great self-esteem, is cautious, does not like to let himself get close, and therefore has few friends.

Daniil

The name Daniil, which has not lost its popularity for several years now, also belongs to the beautiful names of guys (another option is Danila). He has a very interesting origin — biblical. That was the name of the prophet, and no one else is mentioned by that name in the Bible. The literal translation of his original Hebrew version of Daniel is «God is my judge.» Most often, the name is translated as «judge» or «God’s court.»

Daniels are decent, calm, reasonable. It is interesting to communicate with them, and people are drawn to them. Energetic and kind, smart and positive — all this can be said about boys, and then men with the name Daniel.

Since childhood, Dani has been very attached to his family and home, caring and attentive. They are characterized by such character traits as scrupulousness, irascibility, intolerance to lies, morality and love for analytics.

Christian

In the list of rare and unusual beautiful male names, the name Christian rightfully takes its place, very popular in the West and less often, but nevertheless found in our country. As you can easily guess, from the Greek language the name is translated as «Christian» or «belonging to Christ.»

From an early age, Christian is very mobile, active and inquisitive. He is open and sociable, easily comes into contact and quarrels just as easily, very quick-tempered and unpredictable. Men with this name are trusting, reliable, attentive, do not like to change and invite others to accept them as they are. They are very mobile and often like to «break» somewhere at the last minute. They often change their place of residence, because they cannot stay in the same place for a long time.

Milan

If you are wondering what to name a boy, the male name Milan — rare and unusual — is at your service. From Old Slavonic it is translated as «cute». In Russia, it is found infrequently, its female form, Milan, is much more common.

The interpretation of the name justifies his inherent character traits: such a boy is sincere, emotional, responsive, able to sympathize and empathize. Milan is very charming and often uses this to his advantage. Knows how to win over, gain trust, achieve his own. A person with this name will be flattering, wayward and cunning.

Mihail

Let little Mikhail be teased by little Mikhail with Mishka-Toptyzhka or Mikhailo Potapych, but a good name is more than worthy to be on the list of beautiful boy names, and the opinion of a large number of Russian parents from year to year is proof of this. Its origin is Hebrew, and it means «like God.» Archangel Michael, who is the patron saint of northern Russia, is very revered among believers.

Little Misha is a very gentle and affectionate child. From childhood, this boy is generous and friendly, surrounded by friends and loves to receive guests. Mikhails are ardent connoisseurs of art and everything beautiful in general, real aesthetes, sometimes seeming narcissistic. They are active, hardworking, very sociable, attentive, attach great importance to their family and loved ones.

Nikita

Nikitki are purposeful, strong and independent from their youth. They have their own opinion, great ambitions and a great desire to achieve their goals. Being the first is what Nikita desires. He is also a dreamer, storyteller and dreamer with obvious creative inclinations. Such men are also stubborn, cheerful, hardworking, inquisitive and sociable. They love attention to themselves and do not tolerate when something goes against their will.

Nikolai

A few decades ago, this beautiful male name was very popular. Then the wave of passion for him began to decline, but now it is gaining momentum again — Kohl is getting bigger and bigger again. This name came from the ancient Greek, which means «conqueror».

The name has a very strong energy, such boys from childhood will have a strong will, determination, hard work. They are stubborn, but at the same time somewhat clumsy and conservative. Nikolay likes to act according to patterns and rules, fulfilling them from and to — this is how accuracy, commitment and scrupulousness manifest themselves in their character. Kolya is serious, laconic and rarely shows his emotions in public, since childhood he loves to read and do something with his own hands.

Oscar

A rather rare and very beautiful male name with German roots, originating from the Scandinavian languages. Translated as «divine», has a synonym for Asghar, which means «spear of God».

Restless, noisy, restless, but at the same time inquisitive and persistent — this is how Oscar has been since childhood. Impatient, squeamish, loves attention, very sociable and has many friends. Oscars tend to have a lot of hobbies, but none of them are «the best.» They rarely get things done due to lack of patience. These young people have a well-developed intuition, they are deeply intellectual, but indecisive and often need a «kick». Sensitive, vulnerable, not very self-confident.

Svyatoslav

Like Vladislav, this name is of Slavic origin and means «sacred glory». These are calm, balanced boys from childhood. They are reserved and serious, they do not show their emotions to anyone. Very sociable, hospitable and hospitable, they know how to win over people. They do not like change and do not have great ambitions.

          Read: Choosing a name for a child (Sample consultation)

          Short male names Russian list of the best. Names for boys are rare and beautiful and their meaning.

          What’s in your name

          Often in a family where a male baby is expected to be born, one of the most difficult problems is choosing a name. Now they choose names for boys with a slightly “foreign” sound, and traditional Russian ones. But in any case, the choice should be balanced, depending on many criteria.


          Most important

          In pursuit of the best or most beautiful of names, it is important not to miss the main thing:

          • When choosing a name for a boy who will continue the family line and protect the family clan, it is important that in the future it becomes the basis of a good sonorous patronymic for grandchildren.
          • Rare, strange, funny, meaningless names of boys are negatively perceived by society. For example, the name of the hero of your favorite series can become an object of ridicule for a child at school and kindergarten.
          • Psychologists advise against naming a child after the father. In addition to domestic inconvenience with a coincidence, this may be the cause of nervous breakdowns of the future heir.

          In honor of relatives

          A peculiar tradition of naming a boy as a sign of respect, gratitude, love for someone is an interesting idea. But will the owner of the name like it in the future? Here are examples of who are often named after male children:

          • Relative. It can be a dear grandfather, uncle, beloved godfather of one of the parents. Why not? The child will be the darling of a beloved relative, an object of care and protection.
          • Deceased relative. Not the best idea for superstitious parents. So it was customary among the people that the newborn in this case, on a subconscious level, will copy all the character traits and fate of the deceased.

          A child can be named in honor of a man — an obstetrician, who delivered the baby safely, or any other person who once gave a helping hand, who played an important role in the fate of the father or mother of the unborn child. In any case, the decision must be balanced, negotiated by both the father and the mother.

          Seasons

          The time of the year when the birth of a child is planned affects the fate and character of the newborn.

          Consider the names of boys born in different seasons:

          • Winter.
            Arseniy, Mikhail, Pavel, Alexey, Semyon, Valentin. Soft and calm names are necessary for a kind of compensation for the stubborn, strong, strong-willed nature of winter men.
          • Spring.
            Harder-sounding ones are suitable here, because spring children rarely have a lively character. So that the unborn child is always confident in himself, he can be called Oscar, Boris, Timur, Victor, Gleb.
          • Summer.
            Active, proud, summer men love risk and freedom. Short, courageous ones are suitable for these people: Gleb, Roman, Denis, Anton, Mark.
          • Autumn.
            Balanced realists born in autumn trust few people. Smart and calm boys of this season need sonorous names that claim attention: Nikolai, Sergey, Peter, Felix, Herman, Cyril.

          Surname and patronymic

          Parents, sorting out names for a boy, need to think about the euphony of the name in combination with the patronymic and surname of the child. Consonants play an important role. It can be predominant voiced or deaf consonants. The name must contain the same consonant sounds as in the patronymic or surname. For example, Ivanov Matvey Semenovich (the predominance of noisy consonants) or Andreev Viktor Borisovich (solid consonants).

          This combination is considered pleasant for hearing and pronunciation, and also makes communication with the owner easy and convenient. Many people think that short boy names are more suitable for long surnames and vice versa.

          It’s fashionable

          Naming a boy in a fashionable way is the choice of many modern parents who keep up with the times. Each new year is rich in an abundance of popular male names.

          What are relevant in the mid-2010s?

          • Taras.

          Fashionable ones are often outdated, long forgotten, for example, Khariton, Klement, Zakhar. In an effort to pay tribute to fashion, it is important not to overdo it and not call the boy too funny, complicated or strange.

          According to the church calendar

          A little time has passed since the time when all children were named according to the name day in the church calendar. Such a calendar prompted parents for male names for a newborn. To this day, it is believed that a boy named according to the calendar will have good health, a successful job and a happy family. Unfortunately, such a calendar has a limited number of names that modern spouses might like.

          According to value

          Each name in translation from various ancient languages ​​has a special characteristic, meaning. When choosing a name for a boy, parents often want to invest certain qualities in the future heir:

          • Andrey is courageous.
          • Boris is a fighting man.
          • Leo — mind and foresight.
          • Nikita is a victor. An excellent choice for a future athlete.
          • Roman is a favorite of women.
          • Peter — independence, conviction.
          • Sergey is an ideal father and husband.
          • Tikhon is a lucky man.
          • Constantine — constancy.

          Valery, Vitaly — those names that personify health and fortitude. Anton is a competitive person who struggles with difficulties. So it is advised to call weak or premature children so that the magic of the name gives the boys vitality and improves health.

          Important points

          Names for boys can be beautiful, short, ancient, double, foreign.

          But, among other things, when choosing, attention should be paid to such points:

          • Nationality. Many families where the spouses are representatives of different nationalities experience difficulties in choosing how to name the child. Here it is important to think about it in advance, find a compromise and take into account the national identity of the future baby. This will avoid further marital disagreements and resentment.
          • Diminutive form of the name. This form should not irritate, cause irony, be too difficult to pronounce.
          • Place of residence. Prim, refined, rare names for boys are out of place in small villages with a predominance of traditional views on life. Marseille, Alfred, Antonio, Emmanuel will be more harmoniously perceived by the society of megacities.

          In many patriarchal peoples, the family line was drawn from father to son, so the name of the child was one of the ways to show the uniqueness of both the boy and the family. Echoes of these traditions are heard in our language even today, when English, other European and Eastern, for example, Muslim male names come to the Russian name book.

          Russian names for men include several large «blocks» — these are both Old Slavonic and Orthodox (among which there are Jewish, Greek, and Latin ones). Among the names used, one can find Eastern, European, and even American ones.

          For men themselves, it is rarely interesting what their name means, fathers usually choose a name for a child, for a boy, based on personal preferences. And this means that a great responsibility in how to name a child falls on the mother — to choose the most beautiful name for her son and convince her husband that it is the right one for the heir.

          Today, a child’s name can be chosen from a great variety of options — the list is huge. The most popular, for example, lead to the fact that four Nikitas or five Daniils turn out to be in one class at once. So it is better to respond not to fashion trends, but to your own feelings and knowledge.

          It is important that the child’s name be beautiful, euphonious, combined with the patronymic and surname. You need to understand what kind of history the name has, what is its meaning. If this is important to you, then you need to consider both the astrological and numerological aspects of the word.

          From ancient times

          What to choose from? Very many of the Russian names are Old Slavonic and Old Russian. They consist of two roots, and their meaning is often clear to us. Ancient Slavic names, as if from birth, give the child characteristics, the meanings of which are quite “transparent”.

          Below is a list in which Old Slavonic male names are arranged alphabetically.

          • — the one given by God.
          • Borislav — the one who fights for glory.
          • Bronislav is a reliable (glorious) defender.
          • — ruler.
          • — the ruler of the world.
          • — one who has (possesses) fame.
          • — ruler of the people.
          • Vyacheslav is the most glorious.
          • Izyaslav — «took», that is, earned fame.
          • Miroslav — glorious in peace.
          • Mstislav is a glorious avenger.
          • Rostislav is the one whose fame grows.
          • Svyatoslav — the one whose glory is sacred.
          • Stanislav — the one who became famous, famous, famous.
          • — bright and strong.

          But the old Russian names and their meaning were associated not only with power and military glory. Here are more Slavic names that are built on the same principle — because they are understandable, beautiful and a little unusual for our ear:

          • Bogolyub — the one who loves God.
          • Boguslav — one who glorifies God.
          • Bozhidar is a gift from God.
          • Boleslav — the one who became famous more than others.
          • Danislav — giving glory, glorifying (his associates).
          • Dobromir — one who lives in peace and kindness.
          • Lubomir — the one who loves the world.
          • Miloslav — one who is famous for his good looks.
          • Radomir is the one who rejoices in the world.
          • Tikhomir — the one who brings silence and peace.
          • Jaromir — the one who loves the world in all its cheerful manifestations (many Slavic peoples called the sun god Yarilo)

          It can be seen that the ancient Slavic names were included in the Orthodox calendar. This happened, for example, after their carriers were canonized as saints.

          From Greeks to Slavs

          Russian male names include Orthodox (Greek, Latin and Jewish) that came with Christianity. Many «Russian» names have foreign counterparts that have the same roots — Christian and Orthodox holy books. Among them you can see very popular, and very rare now, and the most «ordinary»:

          • Adam is a man.
          • Azat — freedom-loving, independent.
          • Akaki — one who does no evil.
          • — protector of people.
          • — protective.
          • Alim is a scientist.
          • Anatoly — a man from the East.
          • Arkady is a shepherd.
          • — a courageous person.
          • — wrestler.
          • Valentine is the owner of strong vitality.
          • Valery is a big man.
          • Victor — winner (from «victoria» — victory).
          • — noble.
          • — the mercy of God.
          • — one of the warriors of the god of thunder.
          • — sun-like.
          • Konstantin — famous for his constancy.
          • — one who looks like a lion.
          • Luka — light.
          • — happy in bliss.
          • — divine gift.
          • — godlike.
          • — «collector» of peoples.
          • — heroic.
          • — one who is heard by God.
          • — noble, noble.
          • — crowned.
          • — respecting God.
          • — a gift from God.
          • Julian is happy.
          • Yakov — following on the heels.

          These are far from all Orthodox Russian names, a complete list of them can be found in the calendar. Ukrainian male names, like Russian ones, include both Orthodox from the holy calendar and borrowed foreign ones, which have completely taken root in the new soil.

          At the same time, both Orthodox and European male names were transformed due to the peculiarities of the language, so it is not always possible to understand their original sound. There are also popular names from the holy calendar on Ukrainian soil, which are much less in demand in Russia.

          These are, for example, Avilo, Auxentius, Agapius, Agapit, Agathonikos, Adrian, Alphius, Bartholomew, Bonifatius, Vavilo, Vakula, Gavrilo, Gordius, Darius, Dorofiy, Zenon, Zinovy, Jerome, Kapiton, Carpo, Kupriyan, Lavrenty, Larion, Miletius, Naum, Nikanor, Obram, Oleksiy, Omelyan, Paisius, Paramon, Savatiy, Simon, Titus, Trohim, Theodulus, Phocas, Yalisey.

          A real international

          Today, Russian names have absorbed beautiful names from different languages, the meaning of which we do not always understand. For example, Tatar words are borrowed due to the fact that Russia has the Republic of Tatarstan, and large Tatar communities live in the rest of the country. The most popular Tatar names are now used by other nations.

          Here, for example, are the most beautiful Tatar names:

          • Azamat is a hero.
          • Ainur — the light of the moon.
          • Amin is a faithful guardian.
          • Bulat — steel.
          • Vildan — servant of the heavenly garden.
          • Gazinur — light warrior.
          • Danis is a scientist.
          • Zinur — luminous.
          • Ilgiz — traveler, wanderer.
          • Irek — free.
          • Camille — perfection.
          • Rais — chief.
          • Rustam is a hero from a legend.

          It can be seen that the Tatar names also do not stand still, European Marat, Robert, Rafael and others have already joined them. As before, Tatar names to a large extent are traditional Islamic Adel, Ayvaz, Alfir, Amir, Bakhtiyar, Vakhit, Gabdulla, Daniyar, Jamal, Zarif, Ibrahim, Ilfar, Kabir, Latif, Mahmut, Muslim, Nigmatulla, Rifat, Sagit, Talgat, Farhad, Khairulla, Sharif.

          Approximately according to the same principle as the Tatar ones, beautiful Jewish names are also distributed. Some of them came to the holy calendar from the Bible, but not all, and few know the meaning of these words:

          • Ariel is the lion of God.
          • Daniel — my judge is God.
          • Omer — sheaf of wheat.
          • Uri is my light.
          • Eitan is a strong man.
          • Elazar — divine help.

          Many Russian mothers are looking for the most beautiful name for their child. The closest attention is paid to American names: Alan, Brandon, James, Kevin, Cameron, Mason and others. But when choosing words that are rare and unusual for our country, you need to remember that the meaning may differ from the sound: for example, Cameron means “crooked-nosed”.

          But such incidents are very, very rare, it is unlikely that anyone would want their son’s name to be somehow absurd. At the same time, English names today no longer sound pretentious and foreign — they are interesting and modern for our society.

          Leon, Robert, Edgar will surprise few people, but other English names — Jack, Dylan, Logan, Ryan, Thomas, Alfie — to the ear of a Russian person, they do not yet combine very well with Russian patronymics and surnames. So, when choosing the most wonderful and unique name for your heir, remember: the child should be comfortable living with the name that you choose for him! Author: Olga Inozemtseva

          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 a 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 a boy, you need to focus on such an option, in which both the adult brutal form and the soft child form are used. Psychologists advise choosing a name for a rude and cruel boy only with a diminutive name — this will make his temper the softest.

          In particular, Maxim can be called Masik, Maksik, Masya. Alexei — Lesha, Lesha, Lenechka. If the baby is very timid, gentle 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 — Lekha or Alexei.

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

          Choosing a name for a newborn baby is a very responsible matter, because the fate of the child depends on this decision of the parents. All the more responsibly, parents should take the choice of a name for the 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, agile and successful, but they also want their name to be just as strong and beautiful, and to emphasize their masculine strength and beauty to the greatest extent!

          Today, when it comes to choosing a name for a boy, there are thousands of different names, and parents now have plenty 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 children with completely different characters are born at different times of the year. Therefore, knowing the natural coloring of the name and date of birth, you can correctly choose the names of boys by month, the meaning of these names can successfully develop the 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 because of their inconsistency, intransigence, the need to argue over trifles and be sure to win. They do not spare themselves in work, therefore they achieve high results. It is difficult to confuse them, as they are sure of what they are doing. Many have a tough temper, 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» melodious names, so as not to aggravate the character traits laid down by the harsh winter.

          Spring
          people are easily vulnerable physically and morally. They are indecisive, touchy, windy, selfish, squeamish. Most often, these people are gifted, but insecurity prevents them from becoming leaders. Each word, deed is weighed, carefully 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, pliable 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 an 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 love risk, they are proud, courageous and persistent in achieving their goals, they are active.

          Great diligence allows you to achieve success in business. Their kindness extends to other people’s children, to animals, and their temper does not develop into rancor. They are good at art. «Summer» children should be given «hard» names to protect them from unwanted adversity.

          Wise autumn
          , associated in our minds with maturity, experience, slowness, endowed people born at this time with the corresponding features. «Autumn» people are universal. They are reasonable, serious, comprehensively gifted, value the accumulated experience and never repeat mistakes, do everything slowly and deliberately. There are many pedants among them. They are thrifty, know the value of money, thrifty. Diplomatic and principled, they are diligent and diligent in their work, adhere to a clear line of conduct, are persistent in business, have a clear mind, and an easy character. A clear and balanced character, devotion contributes to strong marriages. Born in autumn, 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 names, since nothing can affect their natural character.

          Therefore, the meaning of the name by month of the year can vary significantly. For example, the «December» Alexei is healthier than the «summer» and «spring». Alyoshka is stubborn and persistent and often gets into conflict situations without wanting to. 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 kind of brawl, but his classmate, that he only wanted to restore justice. As a result, most of the blame falls on him.

          «Summer» Aleksey has a less strong free will 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. Likes adventure literature, fantasy.

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

          «Autumn» Aleksey is more self-confident. It is not easy to talk to him, he analyzes every phrase, requires arguments, undeniable arguments from his partner, he himself always knows how to prove and defend his ideas. He is specific, concise in conversation, has a sharp and lively mind. Initiative, practical, rational. But at the same time, he is attentive to colleagues, always ready to listen to everyone, discuss the work plan, and takes into account the opinions of others. Tactful, correct and charming man. Winter and autumn give firmness to the character of Alexei. He gravitates toward the exact sciences, is practical and enterprising.
