A correctly chosen name has a strong positive impact on the character and fate of a person. Actively helps to develop, forms positive qualities of character and state, strengthens health, removes various negative programs unconscious. But how do you pick the perfect name?

Despite the fact that there are interpretations in culture of what different Armenian male names mean, in reality, the influence of the name on each boy is individual.

Sometimes parents try to choose a name before birth, making it difficult for the baby to form. Astrology and numerology of choosing a name have squandered all serious knowledge about the influence of a name on fate through the ages.

Calendars of Christmas time, holy people, without consulting a seeing, perspicacious specialist, do not provide any real help in assessing the influence of names on the fate of the child.

And the lists of ... popular, happy, beautiful, melodious male names completely turn a blind eye to the individuality, energy, soul of the child and turn the selection procedure into an irresponsible game of parents in fashion, selfishness and ignorance.

Various characteristics according to statistics - positive features name, negative traits name, choosing a profession by name, the impact of a name on business, the impact of a name on health, the psychology of a name can only be considered in the context of a deep analysis of subtle plans (karma), energy structure, life tasks and the kind of a particular child.

The topic of compatibility of names (and not the characters of people) is an absurdity that turns inside out on interactions different people internal mechanisms the influence of the name on the state of its bearer. And it cancels the entire psyche, the unconscious, energy and behavior of people. It reduces the entire multidimensionality of human interaction to one false characteristic.

The meaning of the name has no literal effect. For example, Vigen (strong), this does not mean that the young man will be strong, and the bearers of other names will be weak. The name can block his heart center and he will not be able to give and receive love. On the contrary, it will help another boy to solve problems for love or power, it will greatly facilitate life and achieve goals. The third boy may not bring any effect at all, whether there is a name or not. Etc. Moreover, all these children can be born on the same day. And have the same astrological, numerological and other characteristics.

The most popular Armenian names for boys in 2015 are also a delusion. Despite the fact that 95% of boys are called names that do not make life easier. You can focus only on a specific child, deep vision and wisdom of a specialist.

The secret of a male name, as a program of the unconscious, a sound wave, vibration, is revealed by a special bouquet primarily in a person, and not in semantic meaning and description of the name. And if this name destroys the child, then there would be no beautiful, melodious with a patronymic, astrological, blissful, it would still be harm, destruction of character, complication of life and aggravation of fate.

Because the national history Armenians is quite complicated, Armenian names are a kind of mixture. You can meet Armenians with original Armenian names, and with Parthian names, and with Arabic, Greek, Slavic, Biblical names.

Most often, all Armenian names are divided into five categories: by parents, by occupation, by geography, by the distinguishing feature of a person and titled names. It is also customary to single out the following layers of personal names of Armenians.

1. National names.
The group of national names includes the names of pagan Armenian gods and names derived from them, such as Hayk, Anahit, Vahagn. The group also includes the names of Armenian kings (Tigran, Ashot, etc.) and commanders (Vardan, Gevorg, etc.).

2. Names formed from the words of the Armenian language.
This group includes names derived from the names of stars and planets, precious fabrics and stones, holidays. These names include Arev (sun), Manushak (violet), Metaxia (silk) and others. Enough a large number of Armenian names comes from the description of flora and fauna.

Such names, like all personal names formed from common nouns, were invented a very long time ago. In ancient times, the name was chosen in accordance with the qualities of a person or the desire to see these qualities in the future. Thus, the names were given to a person meaningfully. For example, the Armenian name Rachia says that its bearer has “fiery eyes”, and Zarmair means “noble man”. Many names are designed to reflect the internal and external dignity of the wearer. So, Zhirayr means “brisk”, and Patwakan means “venerable”.

Many male names have an "air" component at the end, meaning the word "man". This component is usually preceded by an adjective describing the carrier. Similarly, many female names end in "dukht", which means "daughter" in translation, and the name of the father is placed at the beginning of the name. Thus, new names appear. For example, Vormizdukht or Aikandukht.

The names, which have in their composition a description of objects of flora and fauna, arose from totems deified in antiquity. These names include Garnik, Nargiz, Tsakhik, etc.

3. Borrowed names.
Such names include, in particular, the names of common Christian saints. For example, the names Solomon or David. As in others advanced cultures, biblical names were slightly modified in their own way. So, among the Armenians, Johann became Hovhanness, keeping the sound close to the original. A number of Armenian names, although not biblical, still have religious significance. Such names are translations of foreign religious names. For example, Khachatur - "sent down to St. Cross" or Arakel - "apostle".

A number of names were borrowed from the Persian language. For example, the name Suren. Many alien names have changed, becoming familiar to Armenians.

During the years of the existence of the USSR, Armenians began to call their children names from the Russian language. Diminutive forms of names were often borrowed. So, Armenians began to be called by the names Alyosha, Volodya, Zhora, Yurik. In the same years, the names familiar to Western Europe. Among them were the names Henry, Edward, Hamlet and others. Also as names among Armenians became popular names and last names famous people. For example, Engels, Karl, Roosevelt and others. However, later the carriers of such unusual names began to change them to more familiar Armenian names.

A number of Armenian names can be worn by both men and women. These names include Arshaluys, Hayastan, Yerdzhanik and others. Some names are masculine and female form. For example, the male name Armen - female name Armenui.

It is still widely used in Armenia generic name. It is not mentioned in the documents and is especially widespread outside the cities. A generic name is formed on the same basis as the surname, but in this case the nickname or occupation of the founder of the clan is taken as the basis.

Many Armenians live outside of Armenia, forming large diasporas. Under the influence of diasporas on the actual Armenian nation, names and surnames are very diverse. You can meet both primordially Armenian and Christian names. Surnames can be of Armenian, Turkic, Greek, Old Testament or Iranian origin.

Most surnames end with the endings "-yan" and "-yants", which indicate the carrier's belonging to any kind. For example, the surname Sargsyan speaks of belonging to the Sarkis family.
