Every mother wants to choose a beautiful name for her newborn boy, so that it is rare, consonant, and does not bring negativity, but how to do this, what should be guided by. Today I will provide you with lists of rare, beautiful names for boys of different nationalities, all you have to do is choose.
This choice is responsible for fate, which has been proven repeatedly, this must be taken responsibly, it is worth studying all the nuances. When reading the definition, compare all the points so that your child does not suffer in the future and does not reproach you for the choice he made.
How to choose a name for a boy: tips
- If you want to name your child a name that is suitable for both sexes, for example, Sasha, Valya, Zhenya, match it with the surname. I recommend not combining Valya or Zhenya with a surname that is not gender-biased. At school, at work, there will always be smart people who will say that Valya Rudko is a “chick” and not a boy. But in a leadership position, with such data it will not be at all easy.
- The way you name your son will be the same for your grandchildren, because the patronymic name is passed down from the father. Agree that Maria Dorimedontovna or Tatyana Kalistratovna doesn’t sound very good, to put it mildly, I don’t think your grandchildren will thank you for your choice.
- Of course, pay attention to the combination with the surname and patronymic. Yes, when you receive a passport at the age of 14, you can change your name for just 1000 rubles, but imagine all the “red tape” that you will have to go through. Along with your passport, you will have to change your medical insurance policy, SNILS, and many other documents related to registration and residence.
Beautiful Russian names for boys
They don’t have to be modern, of Tatar or Greek origin, the main thing is that you like them, sound beautiful, and don’t carry bad energy. In my opinion, this is an important step at the birth of a baby, it’s not for you to choose a name for a boy’s cat, it’s your child.
The old beautiful ones include many, including Gregory, Mark, Timofey, Arseny, Rostislav, Nikita, Zakhar, Maxim, Matvey, Daniil, Kirill, Egor, Stepan. They cannot be called unusual, but they are easy to pronounce and are simply combined with the surname and patronymic.
Popular foreign male names: English and American
In our country, it is not uncommon to hear a mother call her son a foreign name. Perhaps this family has roots abroad, or maybe they just decided to stand out from the crowd.
In America, people very often name their children after their father or grandfather, but special attention is paid to the consonance of the first and last names. The meaning of the chosen name is also important for Americans; these people firmly believe that the whole life of the baby depends on the name given at birth.
