The most common female names of 2013
The leader among the female names that girls born in 2013 were named was the name Sofia (Sofya). The second step of the rating is occupied by the name, and on the third - Anastasia (Nastya). As you can see, all these are the names of Russian queens or grand duchesses. Catherine is also popular. As for the name Anna, despite the fact that this is the most common female name in the world, it could not enter the top three. Nevertheless, it was quite common when registering newborns in 2013. In the name of Victoria, parents like to call their girls in the hope that they will be winners in life. However, the list also includes foreign euphonious names: Diana, Christina, Angela, Angelina, Marianna, Daniela, Eva, Evelina, Elina, etc. By the way, there is a tendency to name daughters Lada, Barbara, Pelageya, Agrippina, etc.
Choosing a name for a newborn baby sometimes becomes a difficult test for parents.
If many women can choose in advance some of the most pleasant or meaningful names, then already during pregnancy they often have to “replay” right on the go: either the name of the future baby does not go well with the patronymic and surname, or the sex of the child on the ultrasound turned out to be completely different what parents expected - in a word, a variety of factors can influence the choice.
Not last place among them is fashion. IN different eras are heard different names. For example, in the late 80s, children vied with each other with “ordinary” names - Olya, Katya or Natasha for a girl; Seryozha, Zhenya, Andryusha - for the boy. By the beginning of the 2000s, future parents went into all serious trouble, and kindergartens were filled with Sophia, Zabava, Bogdana and Borislav. In Perm, there are even brothers Lucifer and Voldemar.
The most popular name for boys
The name Maxim has not gone out of fashion for many years. With the development of the Internet and the integration of Russia into the world community, parents who choose this name for their sons have one more argument: the name Maxim easily adapts to most European languages. The same with the names Alexander, Denis or Ivan (the editors know everything.rf clarifies: Ivan in English will be John, but Eugene - Eugene, do not confuse!). 
a little the situation is more difficult the situation is with no less popular, but poorly translated names Yaroslav, Arseny, Cyril, Artem or Dmitry (Demetria is a single-rooted name, but female. For example, actress Demi Moore bears this particular name). Note that Dmitriev in Russia for last years much more was born than before; perhaps this is due to the figure of the politician Dmitry Medvedev. Of course, young parents do not bypass the name Vladimir - often in honor of Vladimir Putin.
The most beautiful and rare names for boys
And here unusual names Russian parents do not seek to give their children - statistically "strange" names of boys in Russia are relatively rare. If earlier registry offices registered such citizens as Angel, Ogneslav, Summerset, and even Ocean, now there are only a few original names. 
At the same time, the fashion for "old" names returned. So, quite often babies are called Bogdans, Matveys, Zakhars, Timothy, Glebs, Anatoly. There are also rarer names - for example, Foma, Miron or Luka (to be fair, it should be noted that Miron Fedorov, known as rapper Oksimiron, received this name when it had not yet become fashionable).
But this is in the regions of Russia, but in national republics sons are called Timurs, Tagirs, Arturs and Amirs. Slightly different situation in the republics North Caucasus. For example, in Vladikavkaz the most common name is Alan, in Makhachkala and Grozny - Magomed, and in Kazan and Ufa - Ruslan.
most popular name for girls
The fashion for names for girls has changed somewhat. If three decades ago it was rare to meet a girl Lisa or Sonya, now these are perhaps the most popular names, and the fashion has lasted for about a dozen years. However, other sonorous and beautiful names are not inferior to positions.Still often girls are called by the name Anastasia. This name comes from the Greek "anastos", in translation - resurrected. In the esoteric environment, it is believed that a girl with that name in life will be able to overcome all hardships and reach any heights. At the same time, she will have a fine mental organization. Anastasia, as a rule, is gullible. They can become excellent psychologists, artists, or kindergarten teachers.
"Strong" names for girls are Irina and Marina. Not so popular in recent years, they are still in some demand among parents who believe in the role of a name for the fate of a child. These names are given to girls so that they grow up confident and filled internal forces. The list of popular names for girls also includes Anna, Alexandra, Maria, Polina, Elena, Daria and Natalya.
The most beautiful and rare names for girls
Newborn girls, like boys, are often given names with a touch of antiquity. Among the names that sound archaic to our ears are, for example, Lyubava, Jaromira, Glafira, Taisia and others. In addition, Milena and Milana, Eva and Vitalia, Barbara and Kira are popular.Fashion for names as a sign of the times
We in the editorial office know everything.rf are materialists, and we are not sure that the name affects the character and fate of a person. But with confidence it can be argued that life affects the choice of a particular name. An example is the first Soviet years in Russia, when such names as Oktyabrina, Revolution, Clara or Rose (in honor of the revolutionaries Clara Zetkin and Rosa Luxembourg) were in fashion.It is difficult to determine the current trend, but it is safe to say that baby names have become a field for parents to express themselves. Many kids are called Kings, Charismas, Eros and even Lenins. And in 2008, seven hundred Messiahs were born in Russia.
At the same time, in last decade there is a trend in the country traditional names are back in fashion. If a century ago the street was full of Alexandrov, Dmitriev, Anastasy and Mariy, then the situation is similar now (albeit with a noticeable bias towards “Russianness”).
We suggest you draw your own conclusions, and at the same time read about what names Russian stars choose for their children.

There are a huge variety of all kinds of names, but people use a very small part of them, choosing the most popular ones. So what is the most common name in the world? Among women, Anna is clearly the leader. It has been popular in many countries for a long time. And even though it was not always fashionable, it certainly entered the top ten.
But among men the same favorite is not observed. In recent years, the Internet has been circulating the news that the most common name among boys is Muhammad. Interestingly, Jackie, Thomas, Danielle were left behind. In many countries, not only Muslim, but also in Europe, it ranks first in popularity, for example, in England, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Norway. But not in Russia and the countries of the former Soviet Union closest to it.
For several decades, the most common male name in Russia has been Alexander. He is followed by Maxim, Dmitry, Daniil, Artem. In the past 2013, Russians most often called their children Artyom and Sophia. By the way, Sophia has been the leader in popularity in America for the last 2 years.
Fashion dictates its own rules. She forces women to wear either long or short skirts, or she can force them to name their daughter Electrification. After 1917, trying to fit the era, people came up with many new names. Some are still alive today: Kim, Vladlen, Oktyabrina. Others disappeared because of their dissonance. In the 1970s, a study showed that the most common name in the Union was Nikolai, followed by Alexander and Ivan. By patronymics, it was established that in previous generation Ivan was in the lead, then Vasily and Nikolay went. The most at that time were Maria and Anna.
How to name the baby?
Throughout life, more often than other words, a person hears his name. It can determine fate and become a talisman, it has its own energy, meaning. That is why his choice should be taken responsibly. Many questions are worth considering. No need to rush to give the baby the most common name, following the fashion. But rare, exotic can complicate his life. If parents think about the future of their child, then it is worth considering that while traveling, working, studying abroad, an unpronounceable name will create problems for its owner. It should be harmonious in any language, in harmony with the patronymic and surname. In China, there is already a tradition of naming a newborn in two ways: in Chinese and in a Western manner. Very convenient for future life. Another important question. It should be taken into account what meaning the name has in other cultures, whether it carries a negative meaning.
Last year, the Top 10 Water Snake for boys was: Maxim, Ivan, Mikhail, Daniil, Dmitry, Andrey, Kirill and Nikita. Perhaps among them there is a suitable one for the future baby. The most common names of girls last year: Sophia, Maria, Anastasia, Daria, Anna, Victoria, Elizabeth, Polina, Varvara, Ekaterina. All of these options have positive energy and euphony. They are modern and trendy.
Yes, it was interesting to read my daughter Ekaterina called her son in 1988 just the most popular name that year, and her son's name is Ivan, she called in 1974 there was one for the whole kindergarten with that name and my name is Nadezhda and the name seems to be beautiful but never popular wherever I studied everywhere in the class there was one or at most two Nadia Evgeniy (Guest), please note that the article contains a spoiler with the heading "Another 90 names "
There, Marina is in 15th place, and Yulia is in 16th, and Gennady is in 22nd.
To see the table under the spoiler, click on the "+" next to the inscription "Another 90 names" Why is nothing said about Marin and Yul? male form). And one more thing: the name Gennady (Gena) is even then how the name was not quoted or what? Anastasia and Taisiya are completely different names! Anastasia-Asya and Nastya. Taya, Tasya have nothing to do with them at any time of the day. It was nice to know that the name Rosa was popular in 1924)))
For 2017, is it probably too early to sum up the most popular female name? The brother's wife suffers all her life because her father wished to record her as Natalia, and not Natalia. It's hard to tell how many documents had to be redone!
Our daughter Olga, born in 1997, was the only Olga in the school parallel (3rd grade)))) And there was not a single Tatyana, Ekaterina, Irina in the class)) But two Valentines. The name just started to gain popularity again then.
My mom is very rare name. I only once heard this name in my life - from the mother of a classmate. For some reason, in the post-war years, it disappeared from the calendar. And the current priests do not know this name, but read it with the wrong accent and consider it Muslim therefore. Mom's name is Talida. Who does not know, reads like Talida. When mother was called, the choice was from two names: Talida and Taora. I've never met Taora in my life.
The article is great, thanks! Until now, when I fill out the documents and clarify that I am Natalia, they say, but what's the difference then ... 0 (stunned ... Well, absolutely nothing ... Crocodile, just some names are rarely given, but constantly. For example , every year this name is ranked 101st in terms of frequency.It will never enter the top 100.
Other names are rapidly gaining and losing popularity, in one year they are in 1st place, and in another, for example, in 150th.
If we sum up the number of all newborns who received names over a hundred years, then it may turn out that the number of children who received a name that was popular a short time, less than the number of children given a name that was not very popular all along
It turned out confusing, but I hope the essence is clear. It seemed strange to me that the first and fourth columns in the TOP-100 table do not correspond to each other. If there is a place in the TOP-100 (the first column), then why is there a line in the fourth "Never included in the TOP-100"? Was it included or not? Interesting article ! I am Marina, there were 3 Marinas in the class, at the institute there were 5 Marinas in a group of 20 people! She named her daughter Veronika, she thought it was not very popular, but she had 3 Veronikas in her group. And I like the name Efrosinya, I even thought of naming my daughter that, but I didn’t name it, somehow I don’t really like the abbreviated Frosya.
Will there be such an article about the names of boys?
A correctly chosen name has a strong positive impact on the character and fate of a person. But how do you pick the perfect name?
Sometimes parents try to choose a name before birth, but this prevents the child from forming. The name must be chosen already on the fact of birth. Extremely deeply and volumetrically analyzing the character of the boy. Astrological and numerological techniques have squandered all knowledge about the influence of a name on fate through the ages and have become nothing more than entertainment.
Christmas calendars, without the advice of a clean and seeing specialist, are also superficial knowledge. which provide no 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 into a fashion dictated by ignorance, unprofessionalism and selfishness.
Despite the fact that there are interpretations in culture of what male names mean, in reality, the influence of the name on each boy is individual.
Various characteristics are positive features of the 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 name compatibility is generally an absurdity that turns 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, Victor, this does not mean that a young man will win everywhere. 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, 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 male names of 2015 \ 2016 \ 2017 ... 2019 are also a delusion. Despite the fact that 95% of boys are called names that do not make life easier. You can only focus on a specific child.
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 does not fit, then it would not be some beautiful, melodious with a patronymic, astrologically accurate, blissful, it would still be a crooked empty shell.
Below are about 500 male names. Try to choose a few, the most suitable in your opinion for the child. Then, if you are interested in the effectiveness of the impact of the name on fate,
