Very rare names.

In the old days, they were quite common in Russia, but today they have practically fallen out of use, and in the registry office there are only isolated cases of their registration over several years (the frequency of such names is less than 1 per 10,000 newborn girls).

Here are just a few of them: Avdotya, Agrafena, Anatolia, Antonida, Apollinaria, Athanasius, Vassa, Virinea, Glyceria, Dorothea, Eudoxia, Eupraxia, Euphemia, Zinovia, Iraida, Isidora, Lucia, Malania, Muse, Olympias, Salome, Sebastian, Thekla, Fedosya, Theodora, Theoktista, Feofaniya, Kharitina.

Is it possible usual life a girl named Adele? Or will the handsome prince be able to pass by the lady named Violetta? Or Ariadne, which means “ruling”? Of course, a girl with such a rare name will carry it with her head held high. If only it goes with the middle name.

Although problems often arise with this: parents try to name their beloved child as beautifully as possible, forgetting that in 25 years “Olegovna” or something like that will be added to her beautiful, sonorous, most unusual name. This is where grandmothers usually come to the rescue, reminding us of common sense. True, it has become possible to register a child right in the maternity hospital, and this is usually done by the mother. Who will stop her, bursting with hormones?

Anna is the most important

Each country has a certain “list” of common and understandable names. Sometimes parents immediately think that the child (or themselves) will be mobile and consider options for moving, so they initially name the child so that foreign friends do not break their tongues when pronouncing, for example, the name Anastasia. Most Popular modern names in America - Angelina, Britney, Jessica, Gina, Kimberly, Marilyn, Pamela, Tiffany, Hayley, Charlotte. In the UK, for example, Amalie, Amalia, Anabel, Angellina, Bridget, Vanessa, Jennifer, Caroline, Lauren, Meidlin are held in high esteem. By the way, Western parents are very susceptible to various cultural influences. For example, the name Emma became very popular when a generation grew up that was a fan of the stories about Harry Potter: Hermione is too complicated a name, so the girls were named after Emma Watson, who played the role of Hermione in the film adaptation. In Russia, there has recently been a wave of names in honor of characters from Game of Thrones; dozens of girls have already received the name Arya.

A girl's name is important not only for her parents, but also for the opposite sex. Not long ago in our country there was held sociological survey, which hosted more than 50 thousand people. Based on its results, it became clear that the most handsome men names such as Anastasia, Ekaterina and Victoria are considered. By the way, “Anastasia” is already for a long time remains at the peak of popularity.

If you look into history, you will see that the name always pointed to social status girls. For example, the name Maria in the 18th century and the first half of the 19th was exclusively a noble name. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, people began to become interested in this name, to name their daughters with it, it spread throughout the country at the expense of the peasantry. Or, for example, the name Tatyana was for a long time for children from a low class, but it was Alexander Pushkin (deliberately, by the way) who used it in Eugene Onegin, calling Tatyana not a simpleton, but a girl of a delicate nature. After this, the noblewomen also became Tatyanas, and the name grew. There is only one name that has always been popular, it was used to call girls from any class, and according to UNESCO in 1984-1985, it was, in principle, the most popular in the world - this is the name Anna, which has many variations. Nyura will be called a peasant woman, and Anna will be the daughter of a king.

In Russia before the revolution, names were often given by the church. After the revolution, the church was officially removed from this action, and folk creativity spilled out from the limits of reason onto children.

  • Old non-church names have returned. Zlata, Lada, Svetlana, Rogneda.
  • New ideological names have appeared. Idea, Barricade, Novella, Poem, Idyll, Turbine, Railcar, Industry, Energy, Electrification.
  • Unique (according to 1942). Artillery Academy, Great Worker (yes, that's a girl's name), Cherry Blossom in May, Glavsp, Raithia. The most unique ones are Oyushminalda, Lagshmivara, Dazdraperma.

The girls defended their rights in everything and always. This also applies to the name - in some countries girls were not given a name at all, but instead the name of the most famous family member - the man - was used. Or in ancient Rome, girls were named after their father. Gaius Julius Caesar's daughters were to be called Julia. If there are several girls, they are numbered. Julia Prima, Julia Secunda, Julia Tertia and so on. Sounds very offensive, doesn't it?

Either way, now you can call a girl the most unusual name. Here sample list what beautiful names for girls were used by various Russian families this year:

  • Aurora,
  • Agnia,
  • Athena,
  • Adana,
  • Amalia,
  • Bella,
  • Dominica,
  • Yesenia,
  • Inessa,
  • Inga,
  • Martha,
  • Michaela,
  • Mira,
  • Romana,
  • Sogdiana,
  • Faina,
  • Evita.

At the same time, the most popular name in 2016 (however, this name has long and firmly held the first line) is Sophia (Sofia). Not everyone wants to come up with an unusual name for a girl - although perhaps this particular name was once unique. According to the name book, Sophia is a soft, gentle girl in childhood. When a girl begins to grow up, she becomes diligent and pedantic. Sophia is a purposeful girl, but she does not go ahead, but carefully achieves her goal without causing inconvenience to anyone.

The second most popular name is Maria. Masha (even the name itself sounds soft) is a kind, quiet, vulnerable girl. At the same time, in adulthood, the character begins to be strong and firm. Maria is a good wife, family is very important to her. The third most popular line is held by the name Daria. Dasha is impulsive and economical (an explosive mixture). Girls with this name are sociable and artistic. Dashas are usually happy in a stable marriage.

Life stories

Looking at some of the names, you can’t help but think: what were the parents motivated by? Some mothers of girls with unusually beautiful names talked about how they chose names for their children.

Mom Lesya, daughter Vasilina:

I myself have a rare name, so I knew the advantages for myself: they always remember you the first time, they immediately distinguish you from the team (both children and adults). Therefore, when we realized that we would have a daughter, I immediately knew that I would choose a rare name. I liked many rare names, but I needed to find a combination with a rather characteristic patronymic - Egorovna. I directly studied directories of rare names, writing down the options I liked on a piece of paper. But my husband and grandmothers rejected almost everything.

Then I took out a directory of rare Ukrainian names, since we have Ukrainian roots on both sides, it was logical.

There, almost immediately, my gaze fell on the name Vasilina, this is the Ukrainian version of Vasilisa. All my relatives liked this name right away. Especially after my pregnant brain was already determined to accept Ustinha.

There is, however, one nuance: the daughter is often confused and written down as Vasilisa. At home we call her full name, affectionately Cornflower. I categorically don’t like the abbreviation Vasya, but my daughter, on the contrary, is what her best friends call her.

Mom Tatyana, daughter Mia:

I heard the name Mia during a trip to Germany. A friend once mentioned that Germans often call their daughters this way. I myself didn’t have a child yet, even in plans, but the name was remembered, although I didn’t tell anyone about it. When the ultrasound showed that we were having a girl, and my husband and I began to discuss the name of the unborn child, I rather timidly asked: “What do you think of the name Mia?” My husband really liked it, so all attempts to make a version more “adapted” to Russian pronunciation - Miya, or to name his daughter Polina or Emma - failed. Which I don’t regret, by the way, the name turned out to be suitable for a wayward, very active and lively girl. In the description of the name, everything is written like that, but I didn’t read it until my daughter was almost two years old - for some reason it was uninteresting.

Problems arose immediately: in the maternity hospital, when I registered my daughter, they asked me written agreement father of a child with that name. In our city, our Mia became the first, so the registry office had doubts whether dad was against it. In the clinic and other official institutions, I immediately dictate the name by letters M-I-A. In response, I usually hear one of two options: “What a beautiful name” or “They’ll name it.” Another interesting remark was from some grandmother during a walk: “Oh, what a name. Probably dad is Chinese. I’m telling you exactly, Chinese.” And my husband, actually, Pavel, is quite Russian.

Mom Maria, daughter Evdokia:

My daughter chose her name herself. I knew this name (my great-grandmother was Evdokia), and was completely indifferent to it. And when the pregnant woman chose a name, I couldn’t get the name out of my head. I was reading a book with names, and it was there. Until I came across the name Evdokia, nothing was suitable. And my husband couldn’t find it either. When I suggested Dunya, he was so confused, and I saw that there was no protest. And inside I was confident that another name would not work.

An unusual name can be not only rare, beautiful, unusual, but also something that can be called “well forgotten old”. Yuli, Olya, Sveta, Ira, Gali - in the generation of the 80s and 90s these names were all over the place, but now they are practically non-existent. So if you don’t have the imagination for something artsy, then you can just look at your friends. Or take the simple path and do what many do: open a dictionary and poke at random.

The question of choosing a name for a baby is one of the most important; this question pushes into the background even the torment in the maternity hospital, the choice of vests and cribs. How much do we rummage through in search of the most beautiful, original and unique name for our unborn child.

Exist different variants choosing a name:

  • Choosing a name according to the calendar, i.e. according to the church calendar, which contains the days of remembrance of saints. Each day of the calendar in Orthodoxy is a day of remembrance of several saints. Therefore, according to church tradition, you can choose a name according to the child’s birthday, the 8th or 40th day of birth. The priests claim that by naming a child after a martyr, his life will not be a torment, but, on the contrary, a blessing.
  • Choice by numerology. Here you need to correctly correlate the date of birth with the name you want to give your baby, and the name that most correlates the child with world harmony will help him live life much easier.
  • Choice by time of year. Adherents of this system believe that if a child was born in winter, then he should be given a soft name to compensate for the severity of the cold (Ulyana, Svetlana, Ksenia). But if the baby was born in the spring, i.e. he is more indecisive, then they are advised to give them tougher names (Christina, Tamara, Marina).

In general, beautiful female names conceal some mystery and mystery. These names fill their owners with tenderness, wisdom and femininity.

Russian scientists have conducted extensive sociological research to find out which female names are most liked by the opposite sex. During this study, more than 50 thousand people were interviewed. The results were the following female names - Anastasia, Katerina, Victoria, the top three survey leaders who scored greatest number male voices. They are followed by the following names: Tatyana, Ksenia, Natasha. Despite the fact that during the survey a variety of female names were named, these were the ones that received the largest number of votes.

However, many parents are now trying to give a rather rare name to their daughter. This is how names appear that you won’t hear anywhere else (Andrianna). Also, in an effort to name their baby an unusual name, people are increasingly taking foreign names (Djamilya, Asiya, Milena).

Don't try to satisfy your vanity at the expense of your child. After all, a baby with this name will go through life, so treat his choice with full responsibility.

Double names

By virtue of various reasons Moms and dads give their children double names. Such a child has a double name on his birth certificate, but in everyday life his relatives most often call him just one. For example, Eva-Evgenia in kindergarten, school and at home will be called either Eva or Zhenya.

Among the double names, the following are popular: Anna-Maria, Alla-Victoria, Salma-Amira, Eva-Valeria. IN double options it is necessary to ensure that one name symbolizes softness and femininity, and the second carries stronger, masculine energy. This is necessary to maintain balance. Two strong names will give a girl’s character a harsh connotation; on the contrary, soft names will make the baby overly sentimental and dependent.

Orthodox names for girls

If you honor traditions and do not like shocking things, then pay attention to the list of Orthodox names. There are also many beautiful ones among them. The most popular names today are: Maria, Sofia, Anna, Lyubov, Ksenia.

You can go another way: choose a name by Orthodox calendar. The baby is named after the saint whose feast day fell on the child’s birthday. It is believed that the saint becomes the patron of the baby; they pray to him for the protection and admonition of the child.

Making a choice

Beautiful names for girls should not only be rare, but also be consonant with their patronymic and surname. How to do it right choice? We invite you to write down your favorite options on a piece of paper. Then match them with your last name and patronymic. Ugly combinations are crossed out. We analyze the remaining options to see how rare this name is. After this, you need to read its characteristics and make the final choice.

If you want your girl to be feminine and gentle, give her an appropriate name. It could be: Alisa, Elina, Snezhana or any other name with soft energy. Do you dream of an independent and active child? They will help you strong names, for example, Violetta, Esfira, Inga. But you should not rely only on the characteristics of names, because the character of a child largely depends on his upbringing.

Conclusion

When deciding what to name your daughter, remember that the name should not only be euphonious and beautiful. The determining factor in making a decision should be the combination with the surname and patronymic. No matter how beautiful the name may be in your opinion, discard it if it causes dissonance with the surname or is absolutely incompatible with the middle name.

Choosing a name for a child is an exciting and touching moment. After all, beautiful names for girls amaze with their diversity. Approach your choice responsibly and thoughtfully. Then your grown-up daughter will tell you: “Thank you for the most best name in the world!"
