Alina -11

I am Alina. In the descriptions for some reason, angry, capricious and the like.
It's strange))) Maybe the majority is like that, but I'm not)

alexando 1

Alina, the characterization of the name does not directly affect the character; rather, it is, let's say, a mental comparison with the image. The personal choice is always yours.

Love 1

I am similar to the description of the name, only I take my studies seriously (excellent student).

Nicole 24

My name makes me uncomfortable. Pretentious, in any company a white crow. Undoubtedly, there is nothing wrong with individuality, but it is annoying when the name is so unusual in Everyday life. The sound.. Not quite for me. Looks like "bulk". Living with him is a pain in the ass. I have been wanting to change for a long time, but there is so much trouble with documents ... And what about friends, especially relatives. I would be glad if I had the opportunity to join the crowd. And since I have a choice, then I should not join enough to be Nastya (I'm sorry, but this name is very common). However, if I had this name, then I would hardly change it just because of its popularity. It sounds nice, at least. The most attractive names are Vera (association with stability (because of "v") and confidence), Lera (the same confidence, but with tenderness because of "l"), Renata (association with accepting things as they are). they are, with quick adaptation and readiness for change). And yes, they sound good. Here.

Lara 2

I like my name very much. Larissa, Lara. People close to me call me differently :) Larisa, Laura, Lara, Lorinka, Lorik, Larskik, Casket, Larochka. And over the years, I like my name more and more. Although, I confess that in childhood and adolescence I regretted that my dad called me that)))

Sandra -4

And I'm all for individuality. My dad named me Sandra and I am proud of this name, for the mentally retarded I allowed myself to be called Sasha. And the rest memorized well and came up with an option convenient for themselves. Sandryusik, Sanechka, Sandrik, Sana, etc.

Olga -10

Since I became a mother, I once met a girl named Olya. Gal is not at all. Only Katya, Nastya, Vicki. Not a single Lyudochka, Svetochka ... Only strange pretentious names.

Angelina -4

And they called me the usual name Elena, but I never liked it and I wanted an unusual, beautiful name ... As a result, 5 years ago I became Angelina. I don't regret my choice. Friends, relatives for 5 years got used to the new name. Now I am an angel. Of course, I won’t say that Angelina is unusual, but at least more interesting than Elena. Again, who cares. If they called me right away unusual name then I would be happy. Being different and always standing out is very much about me. I plan to call children also unusual names.

Irina 2

I am always offended when a person is called a beautiful name, and everyone calls it some kind of abbreviated garbage. I'm here looking for a new name for myself (unpleasant associations from the past). I would like to start from a new page.

OLESIA 1

In my childhood, the name Olesya was very rare. At school, I was alone with that name, I was even embarrassed by it. But I never wanted to change the name that my parents lovingly named me. And they called: Lesik, Olesik, Lesenka), Olesich).

Albina 4

I was always a little flattered that among my acquaintances and girlfriends my name is not repeated, at school I was Albina alone, in life it’s also not a very common name, but I don’t like to be the majority, and so many call Alla, Alina, Lyalka (so in school usually called boys), at work Albina Nikolaevna, and as I grew older, I liked Alya more.

Galina 5

And my name is Galina, Galya, Galinka, my grandfather always called me Galchonok. I really like my name and I was alone at school, and in my adult life I meet a lot of women with such a beautiful name.

Marina 3

My name is not that rare. But very often people around me want to call me Maria. At the same time, before the university, I didn’t know Marin except for myself. And it seems to me that everyone does not like their name until the age of 20. And I dreamed of being not Marina, but, for example, Sasha. Over time, I fell in love with him. How affectionately my relatives call me Mariska. I'm melting.

Violet 7

As a child, I did not like my name, they called me "Fork", I got used to it)). But now I'm a mom and I always introduce myself only full name- Violet!!! And I do not allow it to be shortened, only relatives call me "Lelya")))

Lily 4

In a kindergarten, school, institute named Lilia, I was the only one. Over the years, I met women with that name three times. I love my name, in my youth it especially attracted the attention of guys. Yes, and with age, introducing myself: Lily, I hear from many that my name is beautiful. Relatives and friends call: Lilya, Lilinka, Lilyok, Lilichka.

Ermil 4

Beautiful name Emilia, my friend called my daughter that. You come up, you ask her name, she says - Milya. Straight angel, no words.

Natalia 3

And I have very interesting story names.)) I don’t know why, but of all the relatives, only my father and mother called the slegonets so pretentious names, not traditional. But the example of my family is a clear example of the adaptation of the name in society!!! These names themselves transformed into more familiar Russian ears and pronunciation. Later I found out that my grandfather was called ... Attention! ILLYRIC!!! Russian, the city of Leningrad, and here's a name for a boy among Dim and Sash with Vova. But from the nursery and kindergarten they began to call him ... ERIK, as consonant as possible, so he became Eric from the intricate Ellyric. Then my father was named after the father's patronymic in the German manner... ZERGIUS. (hand-face) Again, the most Slavic boy from Leningrad, there seemed to be no Western influence then, but nonetheless. Naturally, his Sergius most naturally transformed into the Orthodox version of Sergius, baptized Sergius and, for simplicity and peace, Sergei. My mother was also named at that time very unusually Elvira, the grandmother did her best for the third daughter.)) Although the rest of her three siblings have the most traditional names, the same with the father’s two siblings, and all the ancestors that I know. So... When I was born, they named me NATHANIEL! (hand-face twice) But even for the very late Soviet period, even in early childhood, they called me NATALIA, i.e. Natasha. That's how our family stubbornly did not take root original names!!! 8-))) When I studied the names, it turned out that Nataliel is a male Jewish name,))) but in general I agree that it sounds very soft for the Russian ear, and with the mother's name Elvira, a short version of El, is very consonant. To be honest, recently I began to be overwhelmed by thoughts of changing my name back from the beginning, but there are a lot of documents that need to be changed, which I don’t dare yet. The name Natasha kills me with the meaning that has developed into it as a synonym for a frivolous Russian and accessible girl, a hunter for money through male attention. At first I thought it was nonsense, it's not my problem, but you know, when it's everywhere, it's very, very frustrating. Every foreigner stereotypically represents a Russian girl - Natasha. This is just killing me...! :-(((

P. S. Oh, I remembered that my great-great-grandmother's name was also very original - HENRIETTA.))) But for her this is the most banal Polish name, because she is the only foreigner in our family.)))
