When a child is born, all parents have a question: "What name should I give my baby?" Some people come up with names long before birth, while others cannot come up with during the first weeks of their child’s life.
Everyone refers to the choice of a name very responsibly, because it is not in vain that there is a saying: "As you name a ship, it will sail." When choosing a name, many parents take their baby to look for a decoding of names in books or on the Internet, some choose such a name so that it is in tune with the middle name and last name.
Name fashion
There are parents who call their kids only fashionable names. And there is nothing strange here, because the fashion for names has always existed. Each generation has a certain group of names that are more common than others.
It’s best to pick up a couple of names before the birth of the child, because after the birth you will have a lot of pleasant troubles, and you need to register the name within a month.
So, for example, among the names of our grandmothers we often met - Zoya, Raisa, Lida, Klavdiya. In women of the 1960s and 70s, fashionable names were Lyudmila, Nadezhna, Natalya, Nina and Galina. In 1980-1990 - Tatyana, Anna, Katerina and Irina.
There are also names that are relevant in any generation. Women: Olga, Maria, Elena. Men's: Alexander, Andrey, Alexey, Sergey.
Often called their children in honor of a church holiday. And at a time when faith ridiculed, people called their children in honor of someone or in honor of some event. A clear example of this is the name Dazdraperma - long live the first of May, or Vladlen - Vladimir Lenin.
