Dadzdraperma. I mean, LOG LIVE THE FIRST OF MAY. Or, here Lachekamora- from the abbreviation of the phrase “CAMP CHELUSKINTS in the KARA SEA. How do you like this name for your daughter? Is it impressive? 🙂 Well, that certainly makes you shudder, doesn’t it?

Choosing a name for a child is a matter of special, “family” importance. Often all family members take part in this event, and often it can even lead to a scandal. 🙂 For example, a grandmother categorically disagrees with her granddaughter being called an unusual name that is foreign to her (grandmother’s) hearing. Threatens to disinherit. 🙂 And as a result, the child receives not the glamorous name Jane, but the more familiar Zhanna.

But still... If you take a less radical and extraordinary path, then how to choose a name for your beloved child? The child will live with him for many, many years!

But you want to choose a name for your child that is both sonorous, beautiful, and “not hackneyed,” right? Well, not like half the class. 🙂 Fortunately, children's names are given the widest space for the imagination of any creative person.

Here's about one of these ways to come up with something beautiful for a child, but at the same time original name, I want to tell you today. Actually, everything here is actually quite simple, and I won’t reveal anything new to you. But there will be more than enough specifics! 🙂

So, a secret that is not a secret at all:

Look at the statistics: which names are most popular today and which ones are less popular. And do the opposite! :)

I mean, choose names that are at the bottom of the popularity list today. Where can I get such statistics? Yes, in the registry office, of course! Well, on “Children” too. 🙂 I will now present you with all the most important excerpts literally “on a platter”

However, the statistics from civil registry offices, nevertheless, do not seem so unusual. Over the past 5-6 years, there have been no major changes among parents when choosing a name for their child. If you believe the data of the relevant authorities, then mothers and fathers most often call their sons and daughters by the names indicated in this table.

The most unusual names of last year according to statistics from Moscow registry offices

Yes Yes. How could I do without the exotic? 🙂 Muscovites don’t forget about unusual names.

And oddly enough, this process is directly influenced by the political situation in the world.

So, one newborn was named Syria(at that time her father was in this Middle Eastern country for work). Other exotic names over the past three years have been:

  1. Sevastopol;
  2. Olympics;
  3. Byzantium;
  4. Moon;
  5. Alena-Flower;
  6. Radostina;

  8. Ocean;
  9. Mercury;
  10. Lutobor;
  11. Zaryanitsa;

By the way... Insanity will not pass!

Such “inhuman” names for children, independently invented by parents, led to the fact that in November last year a special bill concerning names was proposed.

He must at the legislative level prohibit use in names people any symbols, numbers, punctuation marks.

Surprisingly, the authorities have realized the level of abuse on the part of parents when choosing a name for a child.

You may not believe me, but one boy was named by his parents BOCh rVF 260602

This means - B iological ABOUT object H person R Oh yeah IN Oronin- F rolovykh, born June 26, 2002 of the year.

Interestingly, he still cannot get documents in his name. And all because the registry office itself took up the task of protecting the interests of the child. The head of the department, Victoria Pashkova, is confident that parents should take choosing a name very seriously.

Not funny? Not funny. Scary! After all, a person will have to live with such a name, if not all his life, then for quite a long time. Being in a certain society, getting used to the opinions of strangers regarding your name.

Of course, the state cannot tell a person what to name his son or daughter. But the person himself needs to understand that there are certain limits of decency beyond which it is not recommended. At least for the sake of the future of their children. And if Lyutobor or Radostina don’t sound so ugly, then BOC rVF 260602...

In 2017, 127 newborns were registered, of which 71 were boys and 56 were girls. Popular male names this year were: Mikhail, Andrey, Artyom, Grigory, Miron. For women - Sofia (Sofia), Vasilisa, Alisa, Margarita.
Rarely used names still include such traditional names as Irina, Vera, Yulia, Natalya, Alexander, Evgeny, Sergey, Igor. For comparison: 2014 - 226 children were registered; 100 boys and 126 girls. The most common names: Mikhail, Artyom, Pavel - for boys; Maria, Daria, Ksenia - for girls. 2015 - registered - 194 newborns; boys - 111, girls - 83. Common names: male names - Dmitry, Artyom, Maxim; female - Maria, Elizabeth, Anna. 2016: 186 children were registered in the Civil Registry Office. Boys - 100, girls - 86. Popular male names 2016 - Artyom, Ilya, Maxim; female - Maria, Victoria, Elizabeth.
In 2017, 156 happy people were registered family unions. Based on age estimates, we can say that most of the grooms are over 35 years of age, and the brides are between 25 and 34 years of age. The same picture was observed in 2016. In 2014 and 2015 greatest number brides and grooms were categorized as “25 to 34.”
In the past year, 15 marriages with foreign citizens were registered. The top three are still headed by Ukraine - 6 people, Azerbaijan, Moldova and Belarus - 2 people each. For comparison: in 2014 there were 21 marriages with foreign citizens. Ukraine - 9 people; Tajikistan - 3 people; Uzbekistan - 3 people. 2015 - 36 marriages with citizens of other states. Ukraine - 20 people; Tajikistan - 4 people; Moldova - 3 people. 2016 - 19 interstate marriages: Ukraine - 8, Uzbekistan - 4, Tajikistan - 2.
In 2017, 94 divorces were registered. For comparison: for 2016 - 100, for 2015 - 94, for 2014 - 141. Main age category those getting divorced are citizens from 25 to 39 years old.
The sad statistics on people who have left us are as follows: 2017 - 208 people, of which 109 were men, 99 women. For comparison: 2016 claimed 234 people ( leap year!), 117 men and 117 women. In 2015, 182 people died: men - 86 and women - 96. 2014 took away -204 people from us. 115 men and 89 women.
In the past year, the Civil Registry Office issued 11 records of acts of change of name. Of these, 9 changes were made by women and 2 by men. This is a normal, predictable situation. I would like to clarify right away that, in accordance with civil code Russian Federation, a person’s name includes three components: proper name, patronymic and surname. Therefore, it is possible to change one, two or all components of the name. Men change their first and last names more often. Women change their last name more often. For comparison: 2014 - 17 name changes, of which 4 were men, 13 were women. 2015 - 12 name changes, men - 5, women - 7.
In 2016, 19 people registered a name change, incl. 3 men and 16 women.
Ahead - 2018. On these holidays, I want to wish everyone health, optimism, love and, of course, magic.

Statistics of names in Russia: fashion for names, popularity of names

Is it worth choosing for a child? unique name? Or maybe you need to give your baby a widespread, mass-produced name so that he doesn’t stand out? - This issue must be decided by the parents themselves. But we considered it our task to provide parents with information about the frequency of modern male and female names.

And this page provides data on Russian names that are most common among young people aged 17 to 20 years. Interesting? Then read on.

A good idea of ​​what names modern young people have can be obtained, for example, from an analysis of data on applicants in 2015 - candidates for admission to the country's two main universities - Moscow (MSU) and St. Petersburg (SPbSU).

Lists of applicants for bachelor's and master's degrees were analyzed and processed, that is, the names of boys and girls born in 1995 - 1998 were considered; these lists were posted on official websitestah admissions committees both universities in the summer of 2015. Why was this particular age range (17 - 20 years) chosen for analysis? - Well, in particular, for such a simple reason that these young people themselves will become parents in the coming years.

Analysis of the combination of three elements: personal name, patronymic and last name made it possible to identify with high probability those applicants which are named in accordance with Russian tradition(this includes not only Russian applicants, but also Belarusians, Ukrainians, Jews, in some cases Yakuts, Ossetians, Tatars), in contrast to persons with names not found in Russian families ( Armenian, Georgian, Kalmyk, Tuvan, Buryat names, names of Muslims of the Volga region, North Caucasus and Central Asia and etc.).

As a result, about 21 thousand female and 25 thousand male “Russian” names remained in the total sample (in the full list of applicants). This amount of data is quite sufficient to make certain statistical conclusions. The results are presented in tabular form:

100 most common female names
