In a pleasant series of troubles while waiting for a child, the choice of a name stands apart. For some parents, this is a quickly resolved issue: a newborn baby is named after someone or simply the most beloved name of one of the family members.
Other future mothers and fathers are more scrupulous about the choice, studying men's and female names, their meaning, compatibility with the patronymic and with the surname, the time of the birth of the child or guided by church canons.
They also remember the advice here: do not name the baby in honor of deceased relatives (it is clear why), and a warning against naming the child in honor of living family members (supposedly this will deprive the child of individuality).
No less important is the beauty of the name itself, especially if the parents are faced with the question of how to name the girl.
How to choose the best and most suitable of the female names for your daughter? Stop at a fashionable and original version or call the child a traditional, familiar name?
choose beautiful Russian name or look at the list of foreign ones? Or maybe even give the baby an experimental, unique name?
Choosing a name for a child-girl by patronymic
The compatibility of the first name with the patronymic is important for several reasons:
- Sound harmony, including the even distribution of vowels and consonants, makes the pronunciation of the first name and patronymic convenient, and listening pleasant.
- The correct combination of the name and patronymic, taking into account the nationality of the child and his father, as well as emphasizing their common style (for example, "Rose" and "Fedor" have different stylistic colors, so their combination looks ridiculous) will not give rise to your daughter's classmates and colleagues in the future joke about it behind her back. Agree, for a girl it is very important!
- According to the popular theory that each name carries a certain meaning and affects the character and fate, its successful combination with a patronymic (and in fact two names) will positively affect a person’s life.
In order for the name of your baby to be beautifully and harmoniously combined with the patronymic, adhere to the following recommendations when choosing it:
- it is desirable that the last sound (syllable) of the name is not identical to the first sound (syllable) of the patronymic;
- short names look good with a long middle name, and vice versa;
- you should not choose unusual or colorful national names for girls, if the patronymic is familiar Slavic: “Angelika Ivanovna”, “Nargiz Olegovna” - doesn’t it sound comical?
If meaning is important to you when naming, then when choosing a name for your daughter, give preference to an option with a meaning that harmoniously complements the meaning of the father's name.
So, for the middle name "Sergeevna", which endows the baby with calmness, diligence and love for art, the beautiful name "Elena" is well suited, which promises the girl a sense of beauty and success in her career.
We select a female name by date and month of birth
The choice of the name of the girl, depending on the time of her birth, can be approached from several sides.
We make a choice by date in accordance with the sign of the zodiac
Lovers of horoscopes know that each representative of the zodiac has its own temperament, its own role in society. It is believed that the child must be named according to the meaning and characteristics of his sign.
For girls born during the "reign" of one or another zodiac sign, experts in the field of astrology have already compiled a list of suitable and undesirable female names.
So, for a girl born under the sign of Capricorn, the female name Maria is well suited, along with the options Sophia, Arina, Daria. Pick a beautiful name for Little Fish from the following list: Julia, Anna, Olga, Varvara, Polina.
Call Libra luxurious unusual options: Rostislav, Kaleria, Isabella. For girls born under the sign of Scorpio, it is recommended to name: Victoria, Maria, Love. Taisiya.
There are also many beautiful options for Sagittarius: Vladislav, Inessa, Vasilisa, Maya. Aquarius girls: Alina, Natalya, Snezhana. Call your Aries daughter Svetlana, Anastasia or, for example, Kira.
Veronica, Marina, Olga, Oksana are considered good names for Taurus. Gemini: Alice, Evgenia, Xenia, Christina. For Cancers, it is recommended to choose short, but at the same time very beautiful variations: Yana, Leah, Lada.
Name the little Lionesses beautifully and majestically: Alexandra, Eleanor, Nadezhda, Regina, Diana. Well, for Virgos, of course, feminine options are suitable: Elizabeth, Irina, Tatyana, Anita.
We name the girl by the month of birth
It is noticed that people born at the same time of the year have similar character traits. Thanks to this, the idea arose to select names according to the month of birth. In accordance with the temperament that he gives to a person, a name is chosen for the baby.
- The winter months endow babies with a far from mild temperament, so it’s better to call a girl a feminine option: Uliana, Valentina, Svetlana - this will make the child’s character less “cold”.
- Girls born in the spring are true ladies: gentle, light. But what they lack is firmness in making decisions and defending their opinions, so the names of “freckles” should be given strong ones: Anastasia, Larisa, Marina.
- In children who were born in the summer months, absolutely any character traits can appear, therefore, you can safely name your daughter as you like.
- In autumn, girls are born practical and not prone to dreams. Beautiful names with a touch of romance are well suited to such babies, which will soften their mundane character - Elizabeth, Zlata, Sophia.
Numerology - the mysterious science of numbers - is gaining more and more admirers. Its adherents are sure that almost our entire life is encrypted in numbers from 1 to 9. And since a person's life actually begins with the date of birth and naming, numerologists could not ignore these important milestones.
The numerological code of the date of birth is calculated by adding all its digits until a single digit is obtained. This number is considered sacred in human life. It is good if, in accordance with it, a name for the child is also chosen.
If you already have names for girls in mind, you can calculate the numerological code of each according to the following numerological table, where each letter has its own number (in columns).
The ideal option is the coincidence of the numbers of the name and date of birth - this predicts the baby's harmonious development and a successful life path.
For example, let's calculate the numerological code of the date of birth 04/15/2016:
1 + 5 + 4 + 2 + 1 + 6 = 19,
Among the female names corresponding to this number, one can name the following: Alexandra, Vanessa, Eva, Tamara.
Checking the correspondence between the numbers of the name and date is easy. To do this, it is enough to define the name code.
Let's calculate as an example, using the table above, the code for the name Eva:
E=6; B=3; A=1.
Add up the values of each letter:
Several examples for each digit of the birth code are presented in the following table:
We name the baby according to the church calendar (saints)
It's great if you decide to name the girl according to the church calendar. This is a centuries-old Orthodox tradition: from ancient times it was believed that the saint, after whom the child was named, would patronize him all his life.
Today, choosing a name according to the holy calendar is doubly popular, because old options are in fashion, which can be found in a wide variety in the church calendar.
The church canon is not allowed to choose any name for the girl. You should refer to the names of saints honored on the baby’s birthday, on the eighth day after birth, or on the fortieth day, on which, according to Orthodox tradition, the child is baptized.
If in the women's calendar there was no option that parents liked, you can look into the men's - perhaps there is a derivative variation from the one that is suitable for the date male name.
How to choose a beautiful name for a daughter according to the calendar, consider the example of the same date of birth - 04/15/2016. On this day, there are no holy women honored. However, male saints offer the following options: Edesius, Titus, Polycarp, Amphian. Therefore, unusual girlish names can be formed from them: Amphiana, Edesia.
On the eighth day, that is, April 22, there are no female options in the church calendar either, so we look again at the list of male options: Vadim, Disan, Gabriel, Avdies, Mariav. Perhaps you will stop at a name similar to the last proposed name - "Maria".
On the fortieth day after the date of birth (May 24), the saints again provide only male names, but what: Rostislav, Alexander, Sofroniy! These options are great for forming beautiful names for a girl.
A name is not just a word in a person's life. At all times people have invested in it special meaning and believed that it would affect the fate of the child. And today no one dares to call a daughter or son a "random" name. His choice is approached responsibly and carefully.
Whatever method of choosing a name you choose: by patronymic or date of birth, by the church calendar or numerological tables - the main thing is to do it with love, and then the baby's life will be truly happy and successful!
It is very difficult to overestimate the importance of a name in a person's life. Also in ancient times in Russia they knew that by naming a child we influence his fate. After all, each name has its own secret, sacred meaning. Therefore, it is necessary to approach such a serious step with all responsibility. Let's find out in detail what rare and beautiful names for girls will help them in the future: to be happy, avoid trouble, find their love and just find their way.

Write in the comments what you want to name your child)
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 girl. 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 do not provide any real help in assessing the influence of names on the fate of the child.
And the lists of popular, happy, beautiful, melodic female names completely close their eyes 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, lack of professionalism and selfishness.
> In culture, there are interpretations of what female names mean, while in reality the influence of the name on each woman 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 an in-depth analysis subtle plans(karma), energy structure, tasks for life and kind of a particular child.
The topic of name compatibility is generally an absurdity that turns on interactions different people internal mechanisms of 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 communication, interaction, and human behavior to one false characteristic.
The meaning of the name has no literal effect. For example, Victoria, this does not mean that the girl will win everywhere. The name can block her heart center and she will not be able to give and receive love.
The most popular female names of 2015 \ 2016 \ 2017 ... 2019 are also a delusion. Despite the fact that 95% of girls are called names that do not make life easier. You can only focus on a specific child.
The secret of a female 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, melodic, astrological, accurate, blissful one, it will still be a crooked dummy.

In the past, parents did not come up with names for their children - the clergyman called the baby a certain name during baptism. In Russia, they firmly believed that the name determines the entire history of a person’s life, therefore they completely trusted the church in this. After the baptism of Russia, the child received a double name: one - personal, and the other - according to Christmas time. Today, fortunately, moms and dads have the right to choose a name for their child on their own, but this is not an easy task! There are so many beautiful and harmonious options that it’s time to get confused. Let's find out how to choose a female name for a child.
A little princess is about to appear in your family. The crib has already been assembled and miniature dresses and booties have been bought. With a dowry for a girl future mother questions usually do not arise, but when choosing a name, doubts and disputes often arise with the father of the child and other family members. What to focus on in this matter, the dictates of the heart or fashion trends, young parents must decide for themselves.
Of course, it also happens that a woman already knows exactly what her baby will be called, immediately after the pregnancy test will please her with two promising strips. Then, for nine months, the happy mother talks with rapture to her belly, where Vera or Arishka grows. Other women, in search of the best and most unique name for their princess, continue to sort through beautiful female names for a child in their minds even after returning from the hospital. In this case, the eldest child or the baby's dad puts the final point in these throwing. Be that as it may, but the selection of a name for the heiress has always been and will be hot topic for couples expecting a stork.
How to name a child: looking for female names
When puzzled by the choice of a name for a baby, always consider two inviolable rules:
- the name is approved by mutual consent of the parents, that is, your husband should like your idea as much as you do;
- the name is selected, focusing on its euphony in conjunction with the girl's surname and patronymic. Agree, Alexandrova Alexandra Alexandrovna sounds strange (we, of course, exaggerate, but you understand the train of thought).
The opinion that a girl's name must necessarily be modern and fashionable is subjective, so this point should be paid attention to as a last resort. If you are crazy about Old Slavic names, feel free to call the baby Zora, Krasimira or Beloslava, and this approach to business will be the most correct.
Lists of female names for a child are usually compiled, focusing on some sign.

Psychologists are sure that an unusual name can become a serious problem for a child and prevent him from successfully adapting to a team. If the baby feels like a black sheep because of her name, the mother will have to not only explain to her daughter the motives for her extravagant act in the past, but also convincingly prove her case.
The most popular modern names for girls
According to the Civil Registry Office of the capital of Russia in 2017, the most popular names for little Muscovites are distinguished by femininity, warmth and sincerity. In the top three:
- Sofia. The girl named by this name is sensible beyond her years, very calm and inquisitive. All her life, Sonechka has been connected with her mother by an invisible thread, for her this is an authority and the closest person. As a child, Sofia is affectionate and soft, but not at all assiduous. Pedantry and patience will come to her with age. The stars promise a girl with that name strong love and a happy marriage.
- Maria. Mashunya, Mashenka, Masya - how much warmth and affection in this uncomplicated name! Little Mary conquers those around her with her calmness and kindness.

In general, the life of a woman named Daria is going well. Whatever age is listed in the passport, Dasha always has something childish and spontaneous, thanks to which there is no end to the gentlemen.
