Female names are beautiful modern Russian rating. The most beautiful Turkish names for girls

Almost 20% of parents do not have time to decide on the name of the unborn child by the time of his birth, but there are those who cannot come to an agreement even a month after the baby is born. Being distracted by many everyday problems, it is sometimes very difficult for a husband and wife to agree, because everyone has their own preferences and their own vision on this issue. And here are relatives, friends, and just acquaintances begin to offer their options. Fashion dictates, television promotes, how to choose?

It is clear that every parent wants their child to have a happy life. Considering that the name of a newborn can determine his future fate, contribute to success in his personal life and career, parents often see his future in the name of the baby - and sometimes they choose a rare rather than a common name for their baby. Why?

• It is believed that it will help the child develop certain qualities - for example, independence.
• They strive to distinguish their child from other children in advance.
• They follow family traditions, where the names of grandparents are passed down from generation to generation.

Based on these premises, it is possible to determine where rare names come from.

• The most obvious is the "well-forgotten old". In everyday life there are names that were called children many years, and sometimes centuries, ago. In Russia, old Slavonic names are again heard - Bogdan, Miroslava, Tayana.
• There are very creative and progressive parents who come up with names themselves. This is how the name Svetlana appeared, although it was invented for the character, and not for her own child. And the name Stella was coined for a cycle of sonnets.
• Sometimes adults try to keep in memory any events that are important to them. This is how completely unusual names are also born, many of which later become unviable, but some of these names continue to exist - for example, Kazbek, Damir or Kim. This desire to record various historical events, places, remember and perpetuate some great personalities. To a greater extent, the Soviet names that have appeared reflect this trend, and they can be called rare (Radiy, Zarya, Vladlen, Astra).
• You can also consider as rare names those foreign, borrowed names that are not accepted in everyday life in a particular country. At the same time, most of the Christian names are somehow duplicated both in Catholicism and in Orthodoxy (Martha - Martha, Christian - Christina). But some foreign names can still be called rare - Emma, ​​Madeleine, Monica, Laura.

Rare names for girls

Giving a daughter a rare name, parents first of all seek to highlight and emphasize some specific features of the newborn, which, as parents are sure, their daughter will definitely have. Most often these are beautiful, sonorous, melodious names. Different nationalities have their own list of rare female names.

In Russia, it has recently become fashionable to give children Old Slavonic names. For example, it became possible to personally get acquainted with Zabava or Bozena, although such names are still considered rare. And it will be pleasant for believers to meet such beautiful names in girls as Seraphim, Pelageya or Evdokia.

Zemfira, Ilzira, Iluza, Mavluda, Mavile, Nomina, Nuria, Perizat, Razil, Sazhida, Safura, Sevara, Fazil, Fariza, Hadia, Shakira, Shahina, Enzhe Rare names for boys The name of the baby is chosen based on a certain idea. These can be names according to the sign of the zodiac, mythical, biblical, foreign or new names. Some of the previously rare names are becoming popular at the present time, their former interest is returning to them. Some common names are transformed, acquiring new spellings and sounds, thus a new, beautiful, rare name appears. In addition to the obvious goal of parents who choose a rare name for their child - to distinguish him from the rest, there is also a hidden one. Parents try in this way to teach from an early age to be independent and independent. After all, starting from the first days of the baby’s life, those around him begin to ask again, clarify, be surprised at the name he heard, and the child cannot help but notice this. But not all children can withstand this burden, and not everyone, even adults, who have such rare names, are ready to continue to carry it. Such a selection leaves an imprint on the inner world of a person. It can influence his behavior, make him closed, touchy, or, conversely, arrogant and aggressive. Many, upon reaching adulthood, change their name to a more common one. But it also happens that it is his rare name that helps a person, and for now a child, to overcome obstacles, hold his head high and achieve his goals. But still, maybe future parents should think about and choose one of the more familiar and popular names for their child? Rare names by month This list was compiled from the names given in the name day calendar. It includes Orthodox and Catholic names. This is another way that parents who are looking for a rare name for their child can use. A complete calendar of name days (including for popular names) can be found at the link below the table.

"What's in a name?" the poet asked an unknown interlocutor. Over the same question, but in a broader sense, humanity has been struggling for centuries, but the names are in no hurry to reveal all their secrets. Even notorious materialists and skeptics do not choose the first names that come across for their children, thereby recognizing that the name becomes the hallmark of a person in society, a part of himself. Many people are sure that an individual name not only contains information about its owner, but is also able to participate in the formation of his character and influence his future life. In this regard, the famous phrase is often recalled: “Whatever you call a yacht, so it will float.” What can we say about a man - a living being and connected with the universe by thousands of threads!

Personal names are the object of study of anthroponymy - a branch of the science of onomastics. Within its framework, researchers study their origin, evolutionary development, laws and features of functioning. Each name, whether it is originally Slavic or borrowed from other languages, for example, Greek and Jewish, has its own history, its own meaning. The original meaning of many names was lost in the thickness of the centuries, erased, no longer taken literally. In addition, not all people are interested in the meaning of their name, thereby missing the opportunity to learn more about themselves and their life prospects. Meanwhile, the studies of modern anthroponyms are aimed at compiling a psychological portrait of a typical representative of a particular name, because even earlier it was discovered that people with the same name have much in common in character, fate, and even appearance.

Of course, one should not exaggerate the role of the name in shaping the personality, but nevertheless it deserves the closest attention.

When naming a daughter, parents should understand: the name is the most important decoration for a girl, which she will have to wear all her life. Stella or Milada? Bazhen or Carolina? Clara or Zoryana? Or maybe just love? Rare and beautiful names for girls are presented in such abundance that it is difficult not to get confused. But which one is right for your baby, and what is the right name for your daughter? About this - in our material.

Today, the influence of the female name on her character, quality and life expectancy is studied quite widely. Moreover, the topic is considered by official science, and predictive practices, and magic. Understandably, many parents want to know how it all works. After all, it is so important to write down in the birth certificate not only a beautiful full name, but a happy fate for your daughter.

The name is determined by the calendar, season, numbers and science

So, for newborns, astrologers draw up special horoscopes that allow you to determine a successful naming option. Numerologists select the "correct" names by calculating the date of birth of the child. Healers ask nature what an unusual name to call a girl: they recommend choosing options according to the time of year and month of birth.

There is also anthroponymy. This is a separate scientific area for the study of the history of the emergence and evolution of the full name, the patterns of functioning of its components. In their works, anthroponymists analyze various proper names, identify the most successful combinations of full names.

For believing Orthodox Christians, the most recommended option for naming a girl is according to the calendar. So, the name is given in honor of the saint, whose day coincides with the baby's birthday or falls on the eighth, fortieth days from birth.

How were children named in the old days?

Our ancestors approached the naming of girls easier. And at the same time, the names of the then beauties could be the most unusual. In Rus', they were selected so that the baby could be distinguished from other family members. For example, Pervusha was the first child. The name reflected external data: the girl Chernava grew up swarthy and with dark hair. And Nekrasa was born not too pretty.

The features of character or behavior were taken as a basis: Cry-baby, Clever. They named the baby, taking into account the circumstances of her birth. For example, Istoma grew up in families where her mother suffered during childbirth. And Snezhana was born in the cold. The attitude of adults towards the girl could also be indicated: Zhdana, Nezhdana, Lyubava, Darena.

Anna, Maria and Sofia are the three most popular female naming options on the planet. Although they may sound different in different countries, because they have many synonyms. For example, Annette, Marie and Sophie live in France. And Hannah, Marichen and Zofa are in Germany.

Many modern female names literally fascinate others, and make their owner even more attractive. But finding an interesting, in your opinion, naming option is only half the battle. In order for the name to "play", you need to take into account several points.

1. Nationality. Now in Russia, children are often given “names” that are unusual for local culture and traditions. They are borrowed from other countries, religions, mentalities. In some cases, this is justified. But in combination with the usual Slavic patronymics and surnames, it looks, to put it mildly, strange. For example, the combination "Gayane Vasilievna Kozlova" loses to the combination "Gayane Gasparovna Oganesyan". For an Armenian girl, this name is suitable, but not quite for a newborn Slav. It is also worth considering that in interethnic marriages, girls are born whose external features differ from typical Slavic features. Therefore, for mestizo children, it is also necessary to carefully select the naming option. In Russia, the dark-skinned Masha, whose dad is an Arab, will always be given increased attention. But Regina or Sabira in this case will be neutral and suitable options.
2. Surname . Not all families can boast of a rich and strong surname. In such cases, the girl should not choose a too unusual name. Judge for yourself: the combination of "Malvina Vyrvihvost" will be a double reason for peer ridicule. The option "Natalia Vyrkhvost" in this case looks neater. Of course, one can hope that Michel Gus or Chernava Cloud will grow up, get married and take the names of their soulmates. But what if they decide otherwise? Now, after all, many believe that a change of name negatively affects fate. So, women are afraid to make changes in documents. But even there is a girl who is not superstitious ... What if she falls in love with a guy with the surname Bloch, Damn, Grave, Slyunin or Pindyur?
3. Surname . In addition to the national factor, the principle of consonance must also be taken into account. For bulky, long patronymics, it is worth picking up short names. Otherwise, those around when addressing the girl will break their tongues. For example, the combination "Garden Ramzullovna" outperforms the combination "Wanting Ramzullovna". The same principle applies when comparing the combinations "Vladislava Veniaminovna" and "Nina Veniaminovna". By the way, a tandem is good, where consonance is read in the name and patronymic. And also win options where the “names” of the daughter and dad begin with the same letter: “Angelina Andreevna”, “Irina Igorevna”, “Nora Nikolaevna”.
4. Forms. What will you lovingly name your daughter? Zoechka, Mashunya, Katrusya, Lelya, Lyubasya ... Any female address takes official and diminutive forms. But also many of them can be transformed into nicknames. Here you need to understand that children, especially schoolchildren, are cruel. They love to tease each other. So, Anfisa can turn into a Rat, Yulia - into Dulya, and Rosa - into Dung.
5. Fashion. Especially young parents want to be in trend and find a fashionable name for the baby. There are even completely excesses like the Keyboard, Sarah-Paprika, Simka or Viagra. But in the pursuit of originality, think about the future of your daughter. Do you have a neighbor old lady Dazdraperma? Hardly. As they matured, the girls, fashionably named after the Soviet May Day, were in a hurry to change this rare name. Grandmothers of the Olympics are also few. Yes, and few people know the old women with the name of Trolebuzin, named according to the principle “Trotsky-Lenin-Bukharin-Zinoviev”.

Psychologists recommend avoiding options with unexpressed sexual attachment when naming girls. The "asexual" names of Eugene, Valery, Alexander, Alexy can "steal" tenderness and girlish charm from your baby, hinder her development, female self-identification. Also, you should not name the child in honor of relatives who lived a difficult fate and passed away in agony. And giving the girl the name of the mother, you increase the risk of competition and misunderstandings in the family.

Beautiful female names necessarily contain a certain mystery and mystery. They fill their owners with femininity, tenderness and wisdom.

Beautiful Russian names have different origins - Greek, Scandinavian, Slavic. This list can also include Catholic names, in which Russian parents are also interested. And although most of these names have an Orthodox counterpart, focused on sounding in Russian, this does not prevent European names from appearing on the lists of beautiful female names among young Russian women.

Most Russian female names, which are considered beautiful, are also the most popular. In modern times, both rare names and foreign ones are added to this list, some of which were originally given only to “their own” (Muslim women, for example, or Jewish women). By origin, they cannot be called Russian, but recently Russian girls have also been called such names (Maryam, Eileen, Nicole). New trends make some adjustments to the list of favorite names for girls, but in general it has remained unchanged for several years.

In Islam, the birth of a child is a sacred event, and Muslims are very responsible in choosing a name. Women's names among Muslims are designed to determine the main feature of a person. For example, Jamila means "beautiful" and Asia means "naughty".

A large number of Jewish women's names are related to the Bible. To this day, these names are still used by them. Names that came from the Yiddish language are considered to be the most beautiful Jewish names. An example is the rather widespread Reise (meaning "rose") and Liebe (translated as "beloved").

Recently, Israelis and other Jews also pick up their girls and just beautiful-sounding combinations. For this reason, quite unusual names appear that are not related to Jewish traditions. This is where the abbreviated name can take on its own: Esti can be a full-fledged name among Jews, while in Europe this is a common affectionate appeal to Esther.

Modern beautiful female names

Modern names are very diverse. These are not only traditional (most often religious), but also completely new, sometimes invented, sometimes well-forgotten old names. At the same time, it cannot be said that the preferences of Europeans will be identical to the tastes of Russians or Asians. Many peoples of different cultures, religious denominations and historical roots live in Russia, respectively, and there will be no consensus on which names for girls will be considered modern and beautiful at the same time.

There is a similar picture in Europe, in the USA, where various people live on a vast territory. And the list of beautiful female names of English women will be strikingly different from melodic Bulgarians or Swedes.

The most recognizable in the world can be called Italian female names ending with the endings "-a" and "-e". In modern Italy, the names Violetta and Lucretia are very common.

In Spain, officially female names can consist of two names and surnames, but in fact, girls are given as many names as their parents want. The most popular in this country today are Maria, Carmen and Camilla. Most Spanish names are associated with religion, just like the Germans, by the way.

Diminutive and abbreviated double names are growing in popularity in Germany today. For example, Kate or Anna-Maria. One of the modern beautiful German names is the name Mia, which appeared as an abbreviation for Maria, and began to be actively used in the last decades of the twentieth century. Since 2007, an increasing number of newborn German women have been called this name, it is considered beautiful and sonorous. A modern competitor in beauty - Hanna (analogous to the name Anna) - also fights for the love of German parents and is considered one of the most beautiful modern names in the world.

Beautiful Russian female names

Russian names enjoy a certain interest outside their country. Many short and affectionate addresses in their homeland have become full-fledged names abroad. Very "Russian", according to foreigners, the names Natasha, Tanya and Sasha now sound quite often with an American or Brazilian accent.

But in Russia itself, they currently prefer to adhere to centuries-old traditions - they take Christian or Slavic names, although there are fashion trends here too. Modern Russian female names include not only Orthodox, but also others - Catholic, Slavic, Roman. Although the people did not have full-fledged names before the baptism of Rus', everyone managed with nicknames.

Old Russian names most often represented a description of the most striking feature of its owner, and they were given to the girl already when she became a teenager, or rather, for that time, suitable for future marriage. And they did not always become an ornament for a girl, sometimes it only emphasized her shortcomings or the order of birth. Now, of course, such names are not used at all, and preference is given to sonorous, beautiful Slavic names - Lyubava, Lada, Bogdana, Milena.

Modern beautiful Russian female names. The most widespread at present among Russian female names are Orthodox names. It is they who occupy the first lines of the popularity rating among Russian names, as well as the lines of the rating of beautiful female names. Anastasia, Ekaterina, Maria and Sophia firmly hold the top positions, but less common, and sometimes even forgotten over the past 50 years, names are also appearing - Angelina, Veronika, Varvara and others.

The greatest variety of beautiful Russian female names can be found in million-plus cities, where different cultures come into contact. It is here that the difference between an ultra-modern and a very old name is least noticeable: everything seems so new that sometimes you don’t understand whether this is a tribute to fashion or an already defined trend of returning to antiquity.

It is in big cities that a real foreign name can sound like “Russian”. The name Christina was used in Catholic Europe, and its Orthodox counterpart (Christina) is considered in Russia a relic of past centuries and is practically not found anywhere. Now he has a chance - the European counterpart, Christina, has begun to win Russian hearts. The name Alice is of German origin, and now it is already in the top 10 most popular and, apparently, the most beautiful names - after all, modern parents will not give their daughters an ugly and frightening name!

Russian names

The most beautiful female names

According to world statistics, Anna firmly holds the leading position in the number of girls, girls and women bearing this name. In recent years, the no less famous name Maria has been stepping on his heels, but so far she has not been able to move him off the pedestal. Based on this, two names - Anna and Maria - can be considered the most beautiful modern female names on the entire planet.

But do not think that now every second girl will be called that way. Various countries around the world have their own list of the most beautiful female names, most of which are very popular for their own country, although they are not always of "native" origin. So, English female names have become very popular among Russians. The list of the most popular British names includes the names of Elizabeth, Anya, Louise. Slavic names in the last century were quite popular in Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and since the late 80s of the last century they have gained popularity in Russia.

In Greece, women's names were chosen to protect their owner from troubles and troubles. The Greeks invented more and more new female names. Such names as Aphrodite, Aurora, Barbara came to our country from Greece.

The French give the girls several names. But this combination is fully used only in official documents, and in life French women use only one of them. According to tradition, French girls are named after their maternal and paternal grandmothers (for the first daughter), the second child is already named after the mothers. At present, this tradition is rarely followed - in France, “non-French” names (more often English, American) are in fashion. Short ones, formed from full ones - Theo, Loic, Sasha, Natasha, are also very popular and loved among the French. The spelling of French female names has changed - the ending “-a” has been added (Eva instead of Eve, Celia instead of Celie), but no changes have appeared in Russian pronunciation. It is these names that are currently considered the most beautiful in France.

In France, now you can often find beautiful female Muslim names, but still more among Arabic-speaking residents. Borrowed foreign names are very popular in this country, which are still perceived as “foreign” among the French - Karla, Axel, Lea, Lola.

It is quite difficult to trace the trend of popularity in American names. They are very different in the US. There are even girls named after some events or the area where they were born. American names are also mostly biblical in origin. Americans have very independent tastes depending on the state, but several of the names in the table below are considered attractive female names for American women in almost any state.

Among the beautiful Japanese female names, new ones began to appear, sounding similar to European ones, but which are written in hieroglyphs and do not deviate from Japanese traditions. They came to be considered beautiful not only from the point of view of Europeans, but also from the point of view of the Japanese. Favorite names for Japanese women are not identical to Chinese ones, and are far from the preferences of American or English girls.

You will not find the name Laura in the Russian expanses; in Spain, every tenth girl is called this name. The beautiful name Daria currently does not leave the top five most common in Russia, but in Europe and the Americas it is found only as a foreign, rare name.
