In a pleasant series of troubles while waiting for a child, the choice of a name stands apart. For some parents, this is a quickly resolved issue: a newborn baby is named after someone or simply the most beloved name of one of the family members.

Other future mothers and fathers are more scrupulous about the choice, studying men's and female names, their meaning, compatibility with the patronymic and with the surname, the time of the birth of the child or guided by church canons.

They also recall here the advice: do not name the baby in honor of deceased relatives (it is clear why), and a warning against naming the child in honor of living family members (supposedly this will deprive the child of individuality).

No less important is the beauty of the name itself, especially if the parents are faced with the question of how to name the girl.

How to choose the best and most suitable of the female names for your daughter? Stop at a fashionable and original version or call the child a traditional, familiar name?

choose beautiful Russian name or look at the list of foreign ones? Or maybe even give the baby an experimental, unique name?

Choosing a name for a child-girl by patronymic

The compatibility of the first name with the patronymic is important for several reasons:

Sound harmony, including the even distribution of vowels and consonants, makes the pronunciation of the first name and patronymic convenient, and listening pleasant.
The correct combination of the name and patronymic, taking into account the nationality of the child and his father, as well as emphasizing their common style (for example, "Rosa" and "Fedor" have a different style coloring, so their combination looks ridiculous) will not give rise to your daughter's classmates and colleagues in the future joke about it behind her back. Agree, for a girl it is very important!
According to the popular theory that each name carries a certain meaning and affects the character and fate, its successful combination with a patronymic (and in fact two names) will positively affect a person’s life.

In order for the name of your baby to be beautifully and harmoniously combined with the patronymic, adhere to the following recommendations when choosing it:

it is desirable that the last sound (syllable) of the name is not identical to the first sound (syllable) of the patronymic;
short names look good with a long middle name, and vice versa;
you should not choose unusual or colorful national names for girls, if the patronymic is familiar Slavic: “Angelika Ivanovna”, “Nargiz Olegovna” - doesn’t it sound comical?

If meaning is important to you when naming, then when choosing a name for your daughter, give preference to an option with a meaning that harmoniously complements the meaning of the father's name.

So, for the patronymic "Sergeevna", which endows the baby with calmness, diligence and love for art, the beautiful name "Elena" is well suited, which promises the girl a sense of beauty and success in her career.

We select a female name by date and month of birth

The choice of the name of the girl, depending on the time of her birth, can be approached from several sides.

We make a choice by date in accordance with the sign of the zodiac

Lovers of horoscopes know that each representative of the zodiac has its own temperament, its own role in society. It is believed that the child must be named according to the meaning and characteristics of his sign.

For girls born during the "reign" of one or another zodiac sign, experts in the field of astrology have already compiled a list of suitable and undesirable female names.

So, for a girl born under the sign of Capricorn, the female name Maria is well suited, along with the options Sophia, Arina, Daria. Pick a beautiful name for Little Fish from the following list: Julia, Anna, Olga, Varvara, Polina.

Call Libra luxurious unusual options: Rostislav, Kaleria, Isabella. For girls born under the sign of Scorpio, it is recommended to name: Victoria, Maria, Love. Taisiya.

There are also many beautiful options for Sagittarius: Vladislav, Inessa, Vasilisa, Maya. Aquarius girls: Alina, Natalya, Snezhana. Call your Aries daughter Svetlana, Anastasia or, for example, Kira.

Veronica, Marina, Olga, Oksana are considered good names for Taurus. Gemini: Alice, Evgenia, Xenia, Christina. For Cancers, it is recommended to choose short, but at the same time very beautiful variations: Yana, Leah, Lada.

Name the little Lionesses beautifully and majestically: Alexandra, Eleanor, Nadezhda, Regina, Diana. Well, for Virgos, of course, feminine options are suitable: Elizabeth, Irina, Tatyana, Anita.

We name the girl by the month of birth

It is noticed that people born at the same time of the year have similar character traits. Thanks to this, the idea arose to select names according to the month of birth. In accordance with the temperament that he gives to a person, a name is chosen for the baby.

The winter months endow babies with a far from mild temperament, so it’s better to call a girl a feminine option: Uliana, Valentina, Svetlana - this will make the child’s character less “cold”.
Girls born in the spring are true ladies: gentle, light. But what they lack is firmness in making decisions and defending their opinions, so the names of “freckles” should be given strong ones: Anastasia, Larisa, Marina.

Children who were born in the summer months can show absolutely any character traits, so you can safely name your daughter as you like.
In autumn, girls are born practical and not prone to dreams. These little ones fit well. beautiful names with a touch of romance that will soften their mundane nature - Elizabeth, Zlata, Sophia.

Numerology - the mysterious science of numbers - is gaining more and more admirers. Its adherents are sure that almost our entire life is encrypted in numbers from 1 to 9. And since a person's life actually begins with the date of birth and naming, numerologists could not ignore these important milestones.

The numerological code of the date of birth is calculated by adding all its digits until a single digit is obtained. This number is considered sacred in human life. It is good if, in accordance with it, a name for the child is also chosen.

If you already have names for girls in mind, you can calculate the numerological code of each according to the following numerological table, where each letter has its own number (in columns).

The ideal option is the coincidence of the numbers of the name and date of birth - this predicts the baby's harmonious development and a successful life path.

For example, let's calculate the numerological code of the date of birth 04/15/2016:

1 + 5 + 4 + 2 + 1 + 6 = 19,

Among the female names corresponding to this number, one can name the following: Alexandra, Vanessa, Eva, Tamara.

Checking the correspondence between the numbers of the name and date is easy. To do this, it is enough to define the name code.

Let's calculate as an example, using the table above, the code for the name Eve:

E=6; B=3; A=1.

Add up the values of each letter:

Several examples for each digit of the birth code are presented in the following table:

We name the baby according to the church calendar (saints)

It's great if you decide to name the girl according to church calendar. It's centuries old Orthodox tradition: since ancient times it was believed that the saint, in whose honor the child was named, would patronize him all his life.

Today, choosing a name according to the holy calendar is doubly popular, because old options are in fashion, which can be found in a wide variety in the church calendar.

The church canon is not allowed to choose any name for the girl. You should refer to the names of saints honored on the baby’s birthday, on the eighth day after birth, or on the fortieth day, on which, according to Orthodox tradition, the child is baptized.

If in women's calendar there was no option that parents liked, you can look into the male ones - perhaps there is a derivative variation from a male name that is suitable for the date.

How to choose a beautiful name for a daughter according to the calendar, consider the example of the same date of birth - 04/15/2016. On this day, there are no holy women honored. However, male saints offer the following options: Edesius, Titus, Polycarp, Amphian. Therefore, unusual girlish names can be formed from them: Amphiana, Edesia.

On the eighth day, that is, 22.04, it also does not appear in the church calendar female options, so we look again at the list of men: Vadim, Disan, Gabriel, Avdies, Mariav. Perhaps you will stop at a name similar to the last proposed name - "Maria".

On the fortieth day after the date of birth (May 24), the saints again provide only male names, but what: Rostislav, Alexander, Sofroniy! These options are great for forming beautiful names for a girl.

A name is not just a word in a person's life. At all times people have invested in it special meaning and believed that it would affect the fate of the child. And today no one dares to call a daughter or son a "random" name. His choice is approached responsibly and carefully.

Whatever method of choosing a name you choose: by patronymic or date of birth, by the church calendar or numerological tables - the main thing is to do it with love, and then the baby's life will be truly happy and successful!

Young mothers, expecting their baby to be born, choose a name for him for a very long time. Many are guided fashion trends, calling the child a beautiful-sounding name that is not on the list of the Orthodox church calendar. Because of this, at baptism, the child is called differently. In this article we will tell you how to name a boy or girl according to the church calendar so that his fate is happy and successful.

Immediately after baptism Kievan Rus All Orthodox people they were baptized on the eighth day after the birth of babies according to the same rite (in our time it is customary to do this on the 40th day after bodily birth). On this day, the kids were given the names of the martyrs of the Orthodox Church. People believed that in this way children would be protected by the patron saint from grief and adversity.

The clergy who performed the rite of baptism wrote down every day the name of the saint, which they had already assigned to the child.
So over time, the "Saints" appeared - a book of memory of the saints, which is replenished to this day. Young parents often turn to this publication (you can look through it in church) or a table (many of them are published on the Internet) to choose a name for their newborn.
Unfortunately, choosing a name according to the church calendar is not always a conscious act, the purpose of which is to give the baby a guardian angel.
Naming a child with a rare old name, young parents in this way simply want to distinguish their child from the crowd and do not delve into true essence selected name.

But in ancient times, our ancestors did not celebrate the day of bodily birth, but the day of “baptism” or name day (the day of veneration of the saint in whose honor the baby was named). Sometimes children were named not by the name of the saint on whose name day they were born, but in honor of other canonized great martyrs, whose name day fell on the next three days after the bodily birth of the crumbs.

Video: “How to choose a name for a child according to the church calendar?”

Loving and responsible parents, expecting the birth of a child, try to foresee everything - they select a doctor for pregnancy, make repairs in the children's room, buy a crib.

But one of the most responsible and exciting moments in anticipation of the appearance of his own dear person in the world is choosing a name for your child. When a daughter is born, parents, sorting through the most tender, most beautiful names for girls, try to choose the most suitable name just for their daughter.

The name will accompany a person all his life. It will make an imprint on his fate, from how exactly the child will be named, his entire future future may develop. Often, close relatives, grandparents are involved in choosing a name.

The name is chosen according to a variety of criteria, the child is called:

There are cases when the child himself chooses what name he will have. For example, responding to a certain name with movements and pushes. Sometimes the name of the child is chosen, focusing on the season.

At times Ancient Rus', the choice of the name of the child was influenced by certain events - Thunderstorm, Dawn, the attitude of parents to the child - Zabava, Lyubava, Zhdana, Joy, as well as the desire of parents to endow their daughter with certain qualities - Bogumila, Lyudmila, Dobroslav, Vsemil, Radosvet.

Even after the spread of Christianity in Rus', for a long time, along with the church name received by him at baptism, the relatives gave the child a second name - Old Slavonic, believing that it would help protect the baby from troubles and illnesses.

There was a custom to protect frequently ill or weak children - parents would take a child out of the hut with sentences that we were taking away a child with a certain name, and bringing another child into the house, who was already called by a different, new name.

And to devilry completely lost interest in the baby, in this case they tried to choose a dissonant name - Nesmeyana, Nezhdana, or called a name denoting some animal - Swan, Pike, Magpie.

Choosing a name according to the church calendar

With the advent of Orthodoxy in Rus', the priest chose the name of the child, naming the child in accordance with the church calendar. The church successfully fought against pagan rites and soon church names almost replaced the names of pagan origin.

During the sacrament of baptism, the child began to be named, in accordance with the Saints. Saints, or - Prayer, this is a church calendar Orthodox holidays and days of honoring Orthodox saints. Giving the name to the child of that saint, whose day is close to the birthday of the baby, parents expect that he will protect the child, help him throughout his life.

According to the Prayer Book, parents tried to pick up not only the most meaningful names sacred, but also choose the most beautiful names for girls. The day on which the saint is honored, whose name the girl is named, will become the day of her Angel. Angel Day does not always coincide with the baby's birthday. The Saints contain over 1700 names of various saints, both female and male.

When choosing a name for a baby from the Prayer Book, you need to remember:

A double name is given to a girl if she has already been named by a name that is not used in the Saints, if this name is not Orthodox. Or if the priest advises to choose for the girl the name of the saint who is most suitable for her by birth.

How to choose the right name for the baby?

Previously, the name in Rus' was called "adverb". Since ancient times, this concept has served as a talisman for the baby. At that time, many people firmly believed that if you call the baby the adverb of the Month, then the baby will be happy all his life.

Therefore, the name was chosen from the church calendar based on the date the baby was born.

Today, parents name their children at will. But there are those who want to follow the tradition and name the baby according to the Saints.

But in the church calendar there are days when the name day of only male Saints is celebrated. In such a situation, parents can choose a name not only based on the date of birth of the crumbs. In Rus', a child was named on the eighth or fortieth day after his birth.

Therefore, if you do not like the names of the Angels on the days when the baby was born, or they are completely absent, you can choose adverbs based on other dates:

According to ancient tradition it was on the eighth day of the birth of the baby that a celebration was held, where the parents named their heir with a name for life. This tradition appeared during the life of Jesus Christ. According to legend, Jesus Christ was named precisely on the eighth day after his birth.
You can name the baby on the day of baptism on the fortieth day after his birth. The rite of baptism is an ancient Orthodox tradition. During the sacrament, the crumbs are assigned church name which he will wear in heaven.

Important! But the church says that it is worth naming a baby before the sacrament of baptism.

Whether to follow this rule is an individual choice of the parents themselves. At baptism, the baby is given a different name if none of the church ones is pleasant.
