Mythical names. Mythical male and female names and their meanings

A person named Alexander can be found in many countries of the world, and many people know that this is a male name Greek origin and it was worn by the famous commander of antiquity - Alexander the Great. This name has survived to this day without modification. Was this the case with all Greek male names? Which names have survived to our times, and which have disappeared in time? What do astrologers and historians think about Greek names, how do names reflect on their owners and how are they characterized?

Greek male names are, without a doubt, part of the ancient Hellenistic culture, and a very important part, a kind of egregor of the culture of Greece. Many of these names became sacred already in the ancient Greek tradition, and received consecration a second time with the advent of Christianity. In this sense, Greek male names are twice sacralized, twice sanctified, which makes them unique. In Greece, it is customary to name the first son in the family after his paternal grandfather, and the second son after his mother. It is very rare to give a father's name to a son, as it is considered a bad omen.

Greek names most often had two options: male and female. This division has reached our times. For example, Evgeny-Evgenia, Alexander-Alexandra, Vasily-Vasilisa. However, many names have lost their analogy in another way. Let's say, in ancient times, there were names such as Helen and Anastasius, which today cannot be found even in Greece itself.

The ancient Greeks fully corresponded to the archetype of the sign Gemini. Therefore, the names used in this country have the stamp of duality.

Bearers of Greek names can be prone to mysticism and pessimism, and at the same time, at any moment ready to confront fate and to intensify passions.

According to astrologers, men with Greek names are characterized by a contrast in behavior: manifestations of love for life are replaced by a loss of strength and depression.

Under the sign of Gemini

Names of Hellenic origin seem to force a person to constantly make metaphysical choices: between good and evil, immortality and death. The choice is made at the level of information, thoughts, knowledge about the world. Astrologers say that bearers of such names need to carefully monitor the purity of their thoughts. A man with a Greek name should be sociable, strive to understand the world and gain new knowledge and sensations. After all, the sign of Gemini is ruled by Mercury, which determines such traits as curiosity, mobility, and sociability.

Men who got greek names, have business acumen, they are accompanied by success in business and trade. It is believed that Hellenic names have a beneficial effect on the development of creative talents. The ancients believed that a person’s future depended on their name. Therefore, by calling a boy a Greek name, you can believe that he will achieve a lot in life.

In general, the whole culture Ancient Greece is based on the idea of ​​fate, the dictates of fate. At the same time, heroes who dared to challenge fate were extolled to the skies in this country. Male Greek names reflect not only the history of Greece, but are also a link between the great past of this amazing state and its present. Alas, in recent decades, many Greek families are breaking historical traditions and giving their children names that are sometimes not even Hellenistic.

Modern beautiful male names in Greece

Modern Greek male names can be divided into two groups: ancient (or mythological) and Orthodox. Antique, these are names such as Sophocles, Odysseas, Socrates; Orthodox - Georgios, Vasilios. A third group can be distinguished - names of Jewish or Latin origin, for example, Ioannis or Konstantinos. In the twentieth century, Western European names such as Robertos and Eduardos also came into Greek use.

Greek names are used both in formal and colloquial forms. The boy Georgios in the yard will most likely be called Yorgus, Ioannis - Yannis, Emmanuel - Manolis. At the request of the owner, the passport may contain the colloquial form of the name. In general, the Greeks are very democratic about this issue. A person can be officially called one way, but go through life under a completely different nickname, including indicating it on business cards, signing books, articles, etc.

In modern Greece, the most common names are: Georgios, Konstantinos, Ioannis, Dimitrios, Nikolaos, Vasilios, Christos, Evangelos, Panagiotis. This list is based on a survey of one hundred thousand people and claims to be accurate. Accents in Greek names are mandatory: IoAnnis, Nikolaos, Christos. So, before communicating with a Greek, you should clarify which syllable the stress falls on in his name.

Meaning of male Greek names

In Greek names, both male and female, several groups can be distinguished, based on how the name arose. Most names are determined by some positive external data or character traits. These names arose because parents wanted the child to have only the best traits. Hence the choice of name.

Such Greek male names as Alexander, Vasily, Alexey, Nikolay, Gennady, Evgeny. These names are very common in Russia, so let's take a closer look at some of them.

Name Alexander was formed from two Greek words meaning “man” and “protector”. The main qualities of the Alexandrovs were assumed to be courage, sharp mind, determination, but at the same time, greater sensitivity. Alexander can be quick-tempered and even impudent, but he is always the life of the party. Agree, this description is very reminiscent of the surviving descriptions of Alexander the Great.

Alexei translated from Greek language, as "assistant". A person bearing this name must have seriousness, assertiveness, desire to know the truth and achieve perfection. At the same time, Alexey is calm and respectful. According to astrologers, people with this name always know what they need from life. You may not believe in the “magic of a name,” but numerous examples from history confirm that most often Alexey is a person ready to help.

Basil- “royal”. It is implied that Vasily is a powerful, stubborn person who can stand up for himself. Vasily strives for power, for glory. Hardworking, optimistic. But sometimes he has selfish traits.

Names derived from the names of pagan gods and plant names

As is known, the ancient Greeks were pagans and they worshiped a whole host of all kinds of deities. In addition, mythological characters were held in high esteem, many of whom were deified. The meaning of some Greek names is semantically related to the names of the “inhabitants of Olympus”. For example, these are names such as Denis, Dmitry, Artem.

Name Dmitry translated means “fruit of the earth.” This word is an indirect interpretation the name Demetris, semantically related to the name Demeter. As is known from ancient greek myths, - goddess of fertility. Parents who name their child Demetriss (Dmitry) hope that their son will be businesslike, thorough and talented.

Name Artem (Artemy), translated as “unharmed.” Formed based on the naming of the goddess, the patroness of hunters. Artem knows what he wants from life, but he will never “go over his head” for the sake of his career. Flexible and loyal.

There are male Greek names that come from the names of plants, animals, some objects or concepts, for example, Peter and Nikon. Peter means "stone". The boy was expected to have a strong character. Nikon - “victory”. Parents who called their son this name believed that he would be successful in any field.

After the Christianization of Rus' in 988, every Eastern Slav received a baptismal name from a priest. Baptismal names corresponded to the names of saints and were therefore common Christian names. However, these names are not of Slavic, but of Greek origin. TO Eastern Slavs they came from Byzantium via Bulgaria, where Christianity was adopted even earlier, in 865. This article examines the meanings of names of Greek origin.

History of the origin of Greek names

The origin of most modern Greek male names is closely related to either ancient mythology, or with Christianity.

Before the spread of Christianity on the territory of modern Greece, this country was an empire with a centuries-old history and developed mythology. Therefore, Greek names carry a special meaning, often associated with ancient legends. This is Aphrodite, Penelope, Odysseus.

Most ancient Greek names had two forms: masculine and feminine. Some of these divisions (for example, Anastasia and Anastasius) have been lost over the centuries, others have survived to this day: Alexander is adjacent to the name of Alexander, Vasily is adjacent to Vasilisa.

A large layer of Greek names is associated with settlements. After the fifth century AD, Christianity began to spread in Greece. They started dating in Greece christian names of both Greek and Hebrew origin, as well as those derived from Latin: George, Constantine, Vasily, Anna.

As a rule, the meaning of the name was very important for the ancient Greeks. Therefore, most names of Greek origin mean something positive: Artemy and its derivative Artem mean “healthy,” Sebastian means “highly revered,” Elena means “saint,” Parfeniy means “chaste.”

But Greek culture was not without borrowings. With the advent of the twentieth century, a fashion for English and American borrowings began in the country. But to foreign names did not stand out too much among the Greek ones, they were modified, and as a result, the American Robert became a resident of Athens, Robertos.

How to choose a name for a boy depending on his date of birth

A name cannot determine a person’s fate, but it can leave a visible imprint on his character. Every parent wants their child’s character to help him achieve his goals in the future. In order for the baby to have the most advantageous features, some advise choosing a name in accordance with the zodiac sign. This way you can reduce the impact negative traits character and enhance the positive.

• Aries: Amon, Kondrat, Jerome.
• Taurus: Argos, Cyril, Dorotheus.
• Gemini: Ariston, Nikon, Nestor.
• Cancer: Dorius, Giannis, Hermes.
• Leo: Nicholas, Luke, Constantine, Zeus.
• Virgo: Andrey, Artemy, Cyrus.
• Libra: Egor, Radium, Oles, Nikita.
• Scorpio: Gordey, Ilian, Ionos.
• Sagittarius: Bogdan, Jerome, Klaus, Miron.
• Capricorn: Sevastian, Arthur, Demid.
• Aquarius: Demyan, Plato, Jason.
• Pisces: Demid, Pankrat, Creon.

The name can be selected not only by zodiac sign, but also by the season of birth. The tactics remain the same: the child’s character flaws are neutralized, and his strengths are enhanced.

Winter

Men and women born in winter are very talented. They are wise individuals who are not easy to communicate with: they are contradictory, narcissistic and irritable. Therefore, names that will soften their desire to argue with loved ones over trifles are suitable for “winter children.”

Suitable: Kirill, Nikita, Georgy, Sebastian.

Spring

Spring people are mentally gifted, but do not always find the courage to show their abilities. Therefore, they should be given names that are militant and confident. This will give pliable and cautious children a certain amount of courage. After this, the grown-up “spring boys” will not be afraid to show their leadership qualities and will definitely achieve their goals.

Names that will give courage: Victor, Alexander, Konstantin, Afanasy, Ariston.

Summer

These are hardworking and mentally gifted, but very impulsive people. They are ready to do a lot for the sake of their loved one, but this does not stop them from lashing out at their loved ones over trifles. If a “summer” man is irritated, with his emotionality he can bring the most persistent ladies to tears. Also, some consider the excessive impulsiveness of such people to be feigned, and do not take them seriously.

These names will bring a little peace and stability: Vasily, Gregory, Irenaeus.

Autumn

The two most striking features of “autumn people” are wisdom and a constant feeling of sadness. Even when everything in life is stable and good for the “autumn” person, he sometimes falls into melancholy, from which it is very difficult to get out.

These people are smart and unhurried, so they often do not have time to complete their work and study assignments on time. Slowness also becomes the reason for their constant lateness. “Autumn” people spend their entire lives learning to trust people, and if they are unlucky with a partner once, they never reveal their souls completely.

To save the child from attacks of depression in the future, parents should give the child born in the fall one of the following names: Emelyan, Luka, Dmitry, Egor.
