A case from one's life.
A married couple lived in a neighboring house on our street. Elena and Alexander were friendly, affable, sympathetic young people. Everything went well with them, everything was wonderful except for one thing - the Lord did not give them children for a long time. For two years in a row, Elena went every Sunday to the service at the Florovsky Monastery on Podil and prayed before the icon of the Mother of God “Satisfy my sorrows” in the hope of a miracle. And a miracle happened! mother of God quenched the sadness of a young woman by sending a long-awaited baby. There was no limit to the joy of the spouses and all relatives. However, this joy was soon overshadowed by completely stupid disputes that arose among relatives.
As soon as Lena found out that she would become a mother, she announced that she would name her son in honor of her deceased father, in whom she doted. Vasily Alexandrovich, Elena's father, was the favorite of our entire small street, where everyone knew each other. The kindest man, a master of all trades, when he died, many were very sorry. And it was completely understandable that the daughter wanted to name her son in his memory. But it was not there! The aunt, the father's sister, opposed this most strongly of all. What Lena didn’t hear from her: and you can’t name a baby in honor of a deceased person - it will be unhappy, he will repeat his fate; the fact that his patronymic will be the same as that of the deceased - so this is generally unacceptable! Better yet, give the child two different names: one according to the passport and quite another - at baptism. And in general, you only need to choose some beautiful and happy name. In general, all kinds of superstitious fabrications that plunged the expectant mother into despair. And to top it all, the aunt also promised that if Lena did not listen to her and act in her own way, then she would not even appear at the christening. Lena had to be reassured, and our parish priest had to carry out explanatory work with her aunt.

This case is no exception at all. Rather, the opposite. Conversations and thoughts about the name of the child begin in many families long before his appearance. And I must say that quite a lot of superstitions are connected with the tradition of naming. And the very first of them is that the name is able to determine the fate of a person, influence it and form a character. Therefore, it is undesirable to give children the names of deceased relatives, the names of people with unfortunate destinies, and even the names of saints who suffered a heavy martyr's death.
Where did these misconceptions come from?
It is possible that some of these prejudices have been preserved since pre-Christian times. And this is connected, as a rule, with pagan ideas about fate as inevitable fate and with the cult of ancestors, suggesting some kind of posthumous mystical connection between relatives of the same tribe.
There is a whole science of anthroponymy that studies the origin of names and the information contained in them. However, this science has nothing in common with all sorts of pseudo-scientific theories that exist today and with the widespread literature on names, which is very popular among the population. One part of these theories is based on a social concept, the other is looking for a mechanism of influence on the formation of a person's character in the emotional, sound and even color features of a name. Proponents of such judgments believe that each name carries information about a person's inclinations, talents, his ability to build relationships, behave in one way or another in society, and even about his state of health. And, relying on this knowledge, they advise to be guided by them, for example, when hiring a person, since there is supposedly a certain pattern that manifests itself in the owners of the same names. Is it so?
No one will dispute the fact that the personal name person in society is large enough. A pronounced name is almost always associated with its bearer, with a combination of certain personality traits, with its image and character. “Names express the nature of things,” wrote the Orthodox theologian and philosopher priest Pavel Florensky, who devoted one of his works to the study of names. “Before the name, a person is not yet a person,” he noted. Indeed, we find the justification for this assertion in the Holy Scriptures.
About choosing a name - in the Bible
The initial example of naming was given by the Lord God Himself after the creation of the first man (Gen. 2:25), whom He also endowed with the same gift (Gen. 2:19-20). Further biblical narration shows that the names that appeared on the pages of Scripture reflected the special functions of their bearers for the sacred history. In some cases, they changed to mark a new calling of a person: Abram to Abraham (Gen. 17: 5), Jacob - to Israel (Gen. 32: 24-30). Often the names contained wishes about some specific future qualities of the baby or the type of his activity, or were given with the impulse to capture some events or cases related to the circumstances of the child's appearance (Gen. 25:25, 29:32-34, 30:18 -24, 35:18, Ex. 2:22). Moses, which means "saved from the water," was so named because he was taken out of the water (Ex. 2:10); the future prophet Samuel (asked from God) was really asked by his mother from the Lord (1 Sam. 1:20). As a rule, mothers and fathers were the first to see their born babies. It was they who noticed certain, not yet quite perceptible to outsiders, character traits, on the basis of which they called their children one name or another, reflecting the behavior or appearance of the future person: Esau - shaggy, Nabal - stupid.
The name paints / ugliness a person, or a person is a name
However, nowhere on the pages of the Bible do we find any direct indications or facts indicating that the name could somehow "program" a person's life. Moreover, it is clear from Sacred History that many of its heroes, bearing the same names, had absolutely different fates. Among the Judas mentioned in the Bible (praise to Jehovah), there is also the ancestor of one of the tribes of Israel (Gen. 35:23), and the famous defender of the faith and fatherland Judas Maccabee (1 Mac. 2:4), and the leader of the rebels (Acts 5:37 ), and the Apostle Judas Thaddeus (Luke 6:16), and, finally, Judas Iscariot (Mat. 10:4), who forever stained this name with betrayal. These facts indicate that only the life and actions of a person fill the name with meaning and can change its meaning, but it is impossible to convey through the name the qualities and properties that are formed as a result of upbringing or in the process of life.
Our ancestor Eve, knowing about the promise of God regarding the future deliverer, hoped that its fulfillment would be realized already with the birth of her firstborn. That is why she named her son Cain, considering him an acquisition from the Lord (Gen. 4:1). According to the logic of those who believe that the name can determine the fate of the individual, Cain's life should have corresponded to it. However, he went down in history as the first murderer, who can hardly be associated with "acquisition from the Lord." And, on the contrary, Abel (vanity, insignificance) turned out to be a God-loving person and became the first innocent victim (Gen.4:8).
In general, the story that happened to Cain and Abel is a vivid example of the fact that the life of an individual does not depend on the name, but on her free will and on the choice she makes. The words of the Lord “if you do not do good, then sin lies at the door; he draws you to himself, but you rule over him” were addressed not only to Cain, but to all mankind (Genesis 4:7).
Should a baby be named after a deceased relative?
is in the Bible and special names which even before the birth of their carriers contained prophetic indications of a future mission. So it was with John the Baptist (the grace of God) (Luke 1:13), so it was with Our Savior Jesus Christ Himself (Luke 1:31). In tradition Jewish people in later times, it was customary to choose a name for a newborn from the well-known names of the family - father, grandfather or other respected relatives. And at the same time, no one was afraid that the name of the deceased relative would harm the baby. The ancient pagan peoples, who apostatized from God and fell into idolatry, believed that the name of the born baby should be kept secret so that he could not be harmed. evil spirits. Therefore, in order to mislead these spirits, they tried to give the child several names, hiding the original one. Some primitive tribes believed that if you name a baby after a deceased relative, then you can thus transfer the soul of the deceased into a newborn, and then the fate of the child will be similar to the fate of his predecessor. Apparently, even after the adoption of Christianity, the echoes of these beliefs have survived to our time in the form of various superstitions.
It should be noted that in Christianity there is no concept of fate in its generally accepted notion as a kind of deterministic inevitability or fate. From point of view Christian religion, the definition of fate includes the realization of a person's destiny, aimed at revealing in him the Image and Likeness of God. Not blind fate or insidious chance, not impersonal physical laws govern human life, but Divine Providence or Providence. In Orthodoxy, there is a doctrine of predestination, which states that we are all predestined to salvation. All people, according to God's plan, have the same destiny - to be in the Kingdom of Heaven. “For this is good and pleasing to our Savior God, who wants all people to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth,” writes the Apostle Paul (1 Tim. 2:3-4). The Good Providence of God directs a person to salvation, helps a person, pushes him on the path of righteousness. However, the fulfillment of this predestination depends solely on our free choice. Therefore, predestination is conditional. And in this regard, the name of a person does not affect him at all. life path and, moreover, on his future eternal fate.
Orthodox tradition and the debunking of myths
Orthodoxy has its own centuries-old tradition of naming. Formerly naming Christian name, according to the charter of the Church, was performed before baptism on the eighth day after the birth of the baby - following the example of the Savior Christ (Luke 2:21), and was one of the preparatory actions for it. At present, the naming usually takes place on the day of Epiphany, before the rite of announcement. Thus, at Baptism, a person received a name from the Church, which was chosen according to one of several rules. Most often, the child was named in honor of the saint, whose memory fell either on his birthday, or on the day of the naming, or on the day of Baptism.
Today, Baptism is preceded by the civil registration of a newborn. By this time, the parents are already, as a rule, determined with a name that fits into the birth certificate. If the chosen name is not in the Orthodox chronology, then the priest recommends choosing orthodox name similar in sound. At one time there was a custom in our society to give children names in the Western European form: Angela, Jeanne, Ilona, Jan, Leon. The priest translated such names into the Church Slavonic form when performing the Sacrament of Baptism. It happens that a child is named according to a vow, in honor of a certain saint, who was chosen in advance and prayed to him. However, everything related to naming is advisory in nature, and parents have the right to choose any name for the child.
The Christian tradition of naming children after saints is an educational measure. It is very important to have a positive life example and role model for the moral development of a person. But in order for the life norms of a person to coincide with the life principles of a saint, appropriate upbringing and strong-willed efforts of the individual himself are necessary. The name of a saint does not make a person a saint. There are no happy or unlucky names. There are simply names that are difficult to pronounce and difficult to remember, which can become an occasion for jokes on a person. Such names should simply be prudently avoided, showing prudence:
If only you are smart
You won't let the guys
So fancy names
Like Proton and Atom.
Let father and mother understand
What's up with this nickname
Age will have to age
Unfortunate children -
once wrote the Soviet poet Samuil Marshak in his poem "In Defense of Children". An absolute fallacy is also the assertion that the character of a girl can be influenced by the name given to her, which has male origin: Alexandra, Vasilisa, Theodora, etc. If the parents of such a daughter give her the right upbringing, then her innate femininity will never turn into masculinity. It is not the name that creates the fate of a person, but a person spiritualizes the name with his life and actions.

... At the end of this spring, I met joyful Elena on the street, walking with a stroller, in which the wonderful baby Vasily was peacefully and regally snoring, absolutely unaware of the battles that erupted among relatives even before he was born. Heaven itself stood up for this child, begged by the mother from God. Ahead of all deadlines, he was born on the feast of the Circumcision of the Lord and on the day of memory of St. Basil the Great. The need to choose a name resolved itself.
Do you like your name? Do you feel any discomfort at all when someone calls you by name? If so, then you are happy man!
Your name is fully consistent with your appearance, and your character, and lifestyle, and everything that is connected with you. However, many people are not happy with what their parents named them at birth. Sometimes the reason for this is the dissonant pronunciation of the last name and first name. Therefore, many people change their names. Is it right or not? Is it even possible to change the name and surname given by the parents, and what are the consequences for those who nevertheless changed the entries on the second page of the passport?
If you don't like your name, you can easily change it. However, before you do this, think carefully. Maybe this is a whim, and you just decided to be called the same as your favorite actor or hero from the movie. It is unlikely to bring you what you are waiting for.
If you decide to change your name
When changing your first or last name, you must be completely sure that you need it. Remember that along with the name, your destiny can also change. Life can change dramatically, and, unfortunately, not always for the better.
The name of a person contains a large flow of information. After all, for sure, you are not the only one who bears this name and surname. So, by changing your name, you forever move away from the energy that protected you or vice versa, attracted failures.
How to choose the best name
There are several tips for choosing the right name. Firstly, it must be “rubber”, that is, such that derivatives and diminutive forms could be formed from it. For example, the name Ivan: Vanya, Vanechka, Vano, Vanek, Vanyusha and so on. Secondly, the name should be well combined with the surname and patronymic. Thirdly, it should be sonorous and not carry aggression. If you want to change your name or name your child in a way that gives a soft character, you need to choose names that combine soft sounds. For example, Xenia, Yulia, Alexey and others.
It often happens that a child is named after one of the eldest family members. He then grows up and realizes that he is not comfortable with his name. This happens when a person simply cannot associate his personality with his name. There are many reasons for this. The first reason is that a person can, along with a name, absorb all the negative qualities of the character of the family member in whose honor he was named. The second reason is that the character of a person may not completely coincide with the character of this family member, which can lead to dissonance. The third reason is that along with such a hereditary name, a person may be responsible for the honor and dignity of this family member. He will always unconsciously strive to "keep the mark", and this will put pressure on him.
Parapsychologists generally do not advise parents to name a child in honor of someone. It is worth considering that each person is an individuality, so you should not drive him into the framework of a name that was originally endowed with any meaning.
How to make a name happy
If you decide to change your name, then you naturally have one question: what name will make me happy? The answer to this question is quite simple. The name will bring you good luck only if you associate yourself with it perfectly. You can come up with a completely unrealistic name that no one on the planet has, but if you really feel good about being called by this name, then this is the right choice. With the help of a name change, you can discover new talents in yourself, strengthen some qualities of character, develop abilities that you never even dreamed of before.
Undoubtedly, the name affects the fate and character of a person. It gives us essence, certain character traits and abilities. It's not just a set of sounds. The name of a person is a certain key to the fate of a person, a code that can influence everything that happens in life. There are many cases when people, changing their last name or first name, completely changed their fate. As they say, whatever you call a ship, so it will sail, so only name your ships good names! And don't forget to press and

Heaven itself stood up for this child, begged by the mother from God. Ahead of all deadlines, he was born on the feast of the Circumcision of the Lord and on the day of memory of St. Basil the Great. The need to choose a name resolved itself.
Since ancient times, it has been known that the name has the ability to influence the character and fate of a person. Therefore, how to name the baby that was born was treated very responsibly. Not a small influence on the fate of a person is exerted by his middle name (patronymic) and surname. The meaning of a person's name is studied by many astrologers, numerologists and psychologists. There is an assumption that knowing full name a person can make his approximate psycho-portrait and open the curtain of the secrets of his fate.
As already mentioned, the patronymic and surname are also able to influence the formation of the character and fate of a person. The patronymic should be consonant with the name, as the correct combination favorably affects the share of a person. The patronymic contains the so-called genetic code, which determines the belonging of a person to his family. The last name of a person also has a certain meaning.
The most beautiful surnames in the world: http://sovets.net/3207-samye-krasivye-familii-v-mire.html.
In ancient times, a person was given a surname, based on his fate, it could also reflect the type of his activity or show the character of a person.
The influence of a name on the fate and character of a person
The fate of a person depends entirely on the personality of his parents, on his place of birth (in which country or city the person was born), on the people around him and on his character. However, an important role in the fate and character of a person is played by his name.
The name of a person is his reflection, business card with which he goes through life. So, often, having heard the name or surname of a person, we jokingly draw the first conclusions about his character or temperament, and sometimes we turn out to be right.
Since ancient times, the Slavs, when choosing a name for a baby, turned to a priest. The priest chose the name of the child in accordance with Christmas time or the guardian angel born on that day. It was believed that naming a child by the name of his angel, he was under reliable protection, and this promised him good fortune.
Much attention is paid to the combination of the name and patronymic, they should not only be consonant and easy to pronounce, but also, as it were, complement each other. You should not call the child the name of the father (Ivan Ivanovich or Viktor Viktorovich). This can negatively affect his fate, as it is believed that a child with that name takes over the fate of his father, and does not live his own, intended only for him. It can also exacerbate the negative traits of his character, and not emphasize good qualities.
Concerning the influence of a name on a person's character, then here great importance has the fact of perception of his name. If a person likes his name, then positive features character will manifest itself brighter than negative and vice versa, if a person is not satisfied with his name.
The influence of the name on human health
The name of a person leaves its mark both on his fate and character, and on his health. Many experts argue that the name directly affects the functioning of internal organs. So if the name suits a person, then it protects him from psychomatic disorders (disorder of the nervous system, cardiovascular system, genitourinary tract system). And vice versa, if the name is not suitable, then it can negatively affect the functioning of the internal organs of a person and cause serious diseases.
To avoid the adverse effects of the name on the health of the child, parents should take seriously the choice of a name for their child.
After analyzing the names and their impact on the human body, psychics identify a whole list of names with heavy energy that can negatively affect the physical and mental state of a person.
So the names Leonid and Philip negatively affect the cardiovascular system, so parents who have similar problems in the family are required to refuse to choose these names, and girls should not be called Ekaterina or Nadezhda.

Many modern parents do not think about the fact that the name given to the baby affects his character, fate and life in general. Almost all esotericists are sure that it contains a special energy, thanks to which a person can become successful and happy, or, conversely, he will be haunted by various problems throughout his life.
The influence of a name on a person
Since ancient times, people have attached great importance to how to name a child. They believed that if you name the baby correctly, then he will have positive energy who will help him through life. The Indian tribes practiced the so-called "talking" names. That is, if the boy is called Ahiga (which means "fighter"), then he will become a great warrior.
There is a lot of evidence that, depending on how a person is called, his energy also changes. Think of several people with the same name. You will probably notice that they are somewhat similar to each other. For example, women, whose name is Ekaterina, are more harmful than Natalya, and all Sergeys are stingy. All this suggests that the name gives a person special features that characterize him as a person.
Meaning of sounds
There is also a common belief that certain sounds influence the character. That is, if a child was called a sonorous and pleasant-to-pronounce name, then he will be more accommodating than the one whose name hurts the ear. Sounds also on a subconscious level repel or, on the contrary, dispose a person to themselves.
If the name contains letter "r", its carrier will be serious or even sometimes aggressive. Karina, Sergey, Peter and other people whose names contain this sound have business acumen, will not let themselves be offended and, as a rule, are successful in business.
Soft sounds like "la", "le" and "li", testify to the softness of character. Valentin, Alya, Elena are simple, sometimes even naive, they are gentle and do not have pronounced leadership qualities.
If a person always wants to be in the center of attention, does everything to be noticed, then it is likely that his name contains letters "Zh" or "Z".
Sounds like "S", "Sh" or "Sh" indicate detachment, these people are the opposite of the above example, they are mysterious and very calm.
In most cases, leadership qualities are possessed by people whose names contain the letter a". Alexandra, Alevtin and others will be excellent leaders, from childhood they develop similar qualities.
It is good when the prevailing sounds in the surname coincide with the name, in which case the impact on the character only intensifies.
How the name affects the fate of a person
Since ancient times, parents have turned to priests for advice to help them name their child correctly. All people believed that his fate would depend on how to name the baby. Girls have never been named before male names: it was believed that she would have a hard time in life.
As for the name, which coincides with the patronymic, opinions differ here. On the one hand, it is believed that if you name the baby Ivan Ivanovich, then the child will subconsciously bear responsibility for his parents throughout his life and involuntarily repeat their fate. On the other hand, this strengthens the strength of a kindred spirit and the boys will be closer to their father.
How to name a girl
If parents want their baby to become purposeful and independent, then the masculine principle must be present in the name. But if they wish her a real female fate, then, accordingly, the name should be exclusively female:
Recently, people are trying to name their children extravagantly in order to distinguish their child from everyone else. But sometimes such experiments are completely inappropriate. If boys endure various blows of fate much easier, then for girl unusual name can become an unpleasant cause of difficulties in life.
How to name a boy
Most parents sincerely hope that when their baby becomes an adult and successful, he will be called not only by his first name, but also by his patronymic, so they try to choose so that they sound good together. However, do not forget that the name must be truly masculine and fully correspond to the functions of the owner of the house, breadwinner and protector. These criteria fit:
It is also useful to remember that children are usually named after deceased ancestors. This is very good tradition, which will not harm the baby at all in the future, because he will inherit only the best qualities of the ancestor. It is likely that they will appear after some time. Moreover, such a tradition cements family values.
Meaning of the double name
Giving children double names began when international marriages began to take place. None of the parents wanted to give up their tradition, religion and so on. It was also believed that damage could be imposed through the name. Therefore, the child was given a second, so that strengthen his energy biofield.
Nowadays, children are also sometimes called double names but the concept itself has changed. Children are usually named after their grandparents. For example, one name is taken from parents, another from great-grandfathers or great-grandmothers. This is how we honor our ancestors. This tradition, as a rule, is common in countries where there are no patronymics. We have such cases are extremely rare.
If the name appears frequently
From the point of view of esotericism, there is nothing wrong with this, because there are more people than names. At the same time, exotic names can cause some harm to the child, especially if the parents did not think about its meaning.
From the point of view of psychology, it is much better when in a class or in a kindergarten group a boy or a girl will be called differently than their peers. In this case, his personality will be formed faster. If there are 5 children in the class the same name, then there is nothing good in this, since they will adopt character traits from each other, sometimes not the best.
