Otherwise, she has all the makings of a strong leader, as well as a self-sufficient and strong personality. Her analytical mind tells her that it is impossible to rush to get married, and strong intuition does not argue with this. That is why she has children and ties the knot quite late.

There are also several more opinions on where such a rare name came from. Some argue that this name became popular after the appearance of the Russian poet Sergei Yesenin, while others argue that this is a derivative of the Arabic male name Hassan, which means “beautiful” in translation, or from “foreigner” from Greek.

This name has many consonant names, such as Milena. However, they are absolutely different meanings. It is believed that the name Milan originally derived from the word "mil", like other similar names. However, they cannot be called diminutives and it cannot be considered that this is the same name.

Forgotten names. Forgotten and rare female names and their meaning

Even before the birth of a child, parents begin to think about how to name the baby. It is believed that the name of a person who has come into the world determines his fate and character. The list of beautiful female names is so huge that sometimes it’s not easy to pick it up. To simplify the task, there are a number of criteria (numerology, holy calendar, traditions, fashion, meaning, combination with a surname) that help determine how to name the baby.

How to choose a beautiful name for a girl

According to the law, parents have the right to name their child whatever they want. Sometimes this goes beyond common sense, when the name not only does not combine with the surname, patronymic, but also sounds terrible. Some mothers and fathers tend to name their children in honor of relatives, but if you believe in omens, be careful, because it is believed that a baby can repeat the fate of an adult. Based on the above, it is necessary to choose beautiful Russian names for girls, guided by several basic criteria.

Church calendar

Often the choice of a beautiful female name is carried out depending on the church calendar. On the one hand, everything is simple here: you just need to look at the calendar on the girl’s birthday and find out which saint, great martyr the date is dedicated to, and he will patronize. According to the Orthodox faith, the child immediately falls under the protection of this saint, acquiring a guardian angel for life.

Nevertheless, some difficulties may arise here due to the fact that the girl is called, and the saint is a man. IN this case you need to look who is the patroness on the eighth and fortieth days after birth. It is believed that these days it is customary to name the child and perform the sacrament of baptism, so the choice will be correct.

Numerology

There is a table where each letter of the name corresponds to its own number. If you add them up, you get a number that also affects the character and women's fate:

After calculating the number, you can familiarize yourself with the interpretation using the following detailed table:

Season

Often beautiful girl names are selected based on the time of year, considering that this factor also predetermines the traits of a female character:

1. Winter girls possess developed sense responsibility, perseverance in achieving the goal, while being cold. They are stubborn, contradictory, it is difficult to find a common language with the household. Therefore, it is better to call the girl a soft, beautiful female name that can soften the hard qualities of character inherent in nature: Svetlana, Uliana, Valentina, Natalya, Lyudmila.
2. Spring girls are soft, gentle, striving for a family, the birth of children. It is difficult for them to make decisions, to defend their opinion, they think for a long time before making a decision. The crumbs born in the spring are flexible, therefore, in order to give them strength of character, you need to choose something more tough-sounding, for example, Marina, Larisa, Irina, Victoria, Ruslana.
3. Summer babes get dressed creativity, they are impulsive, emotional, hardworking, active, proud. These children have different character traits, so you can call them whatever you like.
4. Autumn young ladies are devoid of daydreaming, possess pedantry, wisdom, adherence to principles, poise. Such personalities lack lightness, romance, which will be added by beautiful female names Sophia, Elizabeth, Zlata, Yesenia, Olesya, Vera.

National traditions

IN modern world many international families, each member of which knows and honors their traditions. Choosing beautiful female names for girls, you should not rely only on this factor. The selection should take into account such a criterion as consonance. A balance is needed in the surname-name-patronymic, their sound should caress the ear, and not cut. The same applies to old Russian nicknames, which sound beautiful in full, but dissonant in the abbreviated version.

Fashion for women's names

It is not necessary in such an important matter to be based on fashion trends. Often women, flipping through the pages of magazines, name their daughter in honor of actresses, models, famous figures etc. Such an irresponsible approach can Negative influence for the girl's future, her life path, energy shell, realization in the profession, family. So, for example, before the October Revolution, Christian names were popular - Anna, Katerina, Maria.

In the 1920s and 1930s, strange abbreviations appeared that were used to call newborn Soviet citizens - Dazdraperma (Long live the First of May), Oyushminalda (Otto Yulievich Schmidt on an ice floe). In 30-40 years. returned to the fashion of Galina, Nina, in the 50s. many Marys, Zoyas, Hopes appeared. 60-70s differed in brightness, minimalism, as well as the names of women - Zlata, Rimma, Renata.

In the 80-90s, foreign names appeared - Magda, Eva, Jeanette, as well as Rose and Marianne, as a tribute to the TV series "The Rich Also Cry" or "Wild Rose". Modern parents are returning to old Russian ones - Ulyana, Polina, Lyubava, etc. In addition to fashion, there is a list of beautiful female names in alphabetical order with detailed interpretation, a description of character traits that must be considered before naming a daughter.

Combination with patronymic and surname

Many parents now like to call their daughters vintage, foreign or rare names, which does not always constitute a harmonious tandem in pronunciation with a surname, patronymic. So that the girl does not suffer later, does not receive funny nicknames, but feels comfortable, be guided not only by your desires, but also by the following criteria:

1. Bearers of a complex surname, patronymic, call as simply and concisely as possible.
2. It is better to name the owners of a rough, hard patronymic softly, gently.
3. Name, surname, patronymic should complement each other, be easy to pronounce, sound, remember.

What names should not be given to a girl

There are different beautiful names for girls, but sometimes the imagination of parents goes beyond all boundaries, and the newborn is called not so much original as strange. To avoid such moments, it would be appropriate to use the following recommendations:

1. Be careful with giving the girl a masculine name (Vitaly, Bogdan, Pavel). It is possible that peers will call the child Vitalik, Bogdan, Pavlik. In addition, there is a risk that the girl will acquire masculine traits.
2. Pay attention to consonance with the surname, patronymic.
3. Do not give an Orthodox newborn a name that does not correspond to religion. At baptism, the priest will name the baby differently, which may affect her fate, the girl will feel the duality of nature. The same goes for double naming.
4. Quite often, relatives of the crumbs insist on an overly "folk" naming of the baby (Thekla, Matryona, Pelageya) or, on the contrary, a pretentious foreign one (Juanita, Marianna, Vanessa). Agree, in combination with popular Russian surnames, this will sound ridiculous. When the baby grows up, she is unlikely to thank you.
5. Think also about the possibility of creating an abbreviated, diminutive form of naming.

A reference book explaining the meaning and origin of the name will help to avoid such problems.
