Real Slavic names. How to choose an Old Church Slavonic name for a boy? History of origin and significance, as well as recommendations for parents

Are you choosing a name for your newborn son? Parents always dream of their child being the happiest and healthiest. And the first thing you can do for it is to give it the right name. After all, a name is a sign that influences not only the character, but also the fate of a person.

But the problem is that, firstly, the list of names is huge. Secondly, I would like to consider the strong and euphonious Slavic male names, which have become popular again. In the article you will find out what traditions existed in naming boys in Rus' and what they meant Slavic names.

What were boys called in Rus'?

Our ancestors, the Slavs, were strong and beautiful people. Rus' was famous for its heroes, and their names were bright. We learn about this from folk tales, epic. The poem “The Tale of Igor’s Campaign” presents us with a number of wonderful heroes with memorable names.

When choosing a Slavic name for a boy, our ancestors special attention paid attention to its significance. It had to necessarily reflect the character traits of the future man, warrior or successor of the family - grandfather, father. The names of men differed from the names of the peoples of other countries in their connection with the forces of Nature, gods and clan.

Slavic names for boys were chosen by parents depending on the type of employment, in honor of glorious ancestors, based on the child’s character qualities.

For example, Dobrynya is kind,

Vsevolod - owner of everything,

Rodomir – the bringer of peace and many others.

The sons were named in honor of the pagan gods: the name Jaromir consists of two roots - Yarilo (sun god) and peace.

There were names indicating the order of birth of a child in the family: Pervusha, Vtorak, Tretyak.

The most common group is represented by two-basic names: Bogdan, Vsevolod, Svetozar, Svyatoslav, Ratibor, Tihomir, Yaropolk.

There were names associated with mythical characters, representatives of flora and fauna, and natural phenomena: Brave, Pike, Hare, Yarilo, Lada.

Why are Slavic male names forgotten?

This was mainly influenced by the baptism of Rus', which occurred in the 10th century. Pagan beliefs were replaced by a national unified religion. With the change of faith, changes also occurred in people’s lives, their way of life, and their worldview.

Bans were imposed on the original Slavic names, so they gradually faded from memory and were forgotten. They were replaced by Hebrew, Byzantine, Greek, Babylonian, Syrian names. In the 19th century, very few Russian names remained; names of Latin origin appeared in families. IN modern Russia According to statistics, there were only 5% of boys with Old Russian names.

How to recognize Slavic names?

Male Slavic names had a sacred meaning. They are beautiful, euphonious, and also strong-willed and strong. You can easily recognize them. Usually they consist of two bases: the first is the main one and was given at the birth of a child, the second was added when the boy grew up and had certain merits and showed himself in something. For example,

Absey - born on the first day of spring,

Vsemil - dear to everyone,

Daroslav - giver of the word,

Yaropolk is an ardent warrior.

Male Slavic names are back in fashion

Having analyzed the meanings of ancient Slavic names, you will, of course, agree that they sound melodious, full of nobility, courage, and strength. They contain deep meaning and powerful positive energy. The more men with such names, the better and healthier the world becomes. This is also a return to one’s origins and roots. Slavic names are energetically much stronger than foreign ones. And what more people bear names with positive energy, the better and purer the energy-informational background of the Earth.

Of course, no one is calling on you, parents, to completely abandon your usual names, such as Danil, Maxim, Arthur, Artyom, Egor, Arseny, Nikita, Semyon, Konstantin, Alexander, Nikolai, Kirill.

It’s just that among the ancient and forgotten there are many beautiful and noble ones. By giving your child an ancient Slavic name, you strengthen your family, make it stronger and cleanse it of bad energy. This is the power of a person’s name. The choice is yours.

In our century, educated parents are paying more and more attention to Old Church Slavonic names, giving them to their children. Thus, they return to the original Russian traditions that have existed in Rus' since ancient times in naming.

Old names in new times

New sound in modern world acquire the names Vsevolod and Milana, Mstislav and Darina. Such a keen interest of modern residents in rare, long-unused ancient Slavic names is not surprising. When looking for a name for their child, parents strive to make it original and unusual. In addition, they want the baby’s name to be sonorous and poetic. In addition to the above, modern parents do not forget about the content and semantics of the name.

The Slavs used to give their children names with meaning. At the same time, the name must have only positive energy. Ancient Slavic names meet all these requirements. Russian people intuitively understand their meaning, and the beauty with which they sound will not leave anyone indifferent. Ancient Slavic names (male and female) today are considered by many parents as best names for your children.

Double naming

A name determines a person's destiny. It serves as the key to his inner world. Ancients Slavic tribes adhered to the tradition of double naming, which was based on the belief in the mystical connection between the name and the person to whom it was given. It is no coincidence that in Rus' a person had two names: one was false - for everyone, and the other secret - for himself and his closest friends. Names were supposed to serve as protection from evil spirits and bad people. Often the first false Slavic name was given to those who were purposefully unattractive (Zloba, Kriv, Byaka, Nekras, Likho).

It was believed that a name is the key to a person, and without knowing the essence of an individual, it is much more difficult to harm him. The rite of secondary naming was performed upon reaching adolescence, when all the main character traits have already been formed, and it is already possible to judge which of them have become predominant. Based on these traits, the name was given.

The meaning of ancient Slavic names

Let's analyze ancient Slavic names and their meanings.

According to their meaning, Old Church Slavonic names are conventionally divided into several groups:

Names that repeat the names of various representatives of flora and fauna (Raven, Eagle, Walnut). These days such names are not used.
Old Slavonic names reflecting various traits of human character. For example, Veselin can mean “cheerful”, and the name Khrabr means “courageous”; Dobrolyub means “loving and kind.” In the modern world, the names of this group have become widespread.
Names related to various mythical characters. These were mainly the names of ancient Slavic deities. So, Lada is the Slavic goddess of love, Yarilo is Slavic god sun.
Interesting ancient Slavic names indicating the order in which a child was born in the family. The logic was completely simple. The first son received the name Pervush, the second son was called Vtorak, the third - Tretyak, and so on.

For a more detailed study of Slavic names and their meanings, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the following lists.

Two-basic Slavic names and their meaning

One of the largest groups of Slavic names are names with two stems. Until the era of Christianity began, the names of this group were most widespread.

Many names used by the Slavs are made up of 2 basics. For example, the name Lubomir is considered to be a derivative of two words - “to love” and “peace”, and Boguslav is a derivative of “glory” and “god”. It sounds very beautiful and at the same time the name has absolutely clear meaning. It is thanks to this that Slavic names have received a second life in our time, becoming very popular among their contemporaries. Most often, these names are given to children born in Poland, Ukraine, Serbia, Bulgaria and the Czech Republic.

These names are divided into two subgroups. The main group includes two-basic names (Tikhomir, Svyatoslav, Ratibor, Dobrozhir, Gostomysl, Yaropolk, Velimudr, Vsevolod, Bogdan, Lyubomila, Dobrogneva), and the second group contains names that are derived from the names of the main group (Dobrynya, Svyatosha, Ratisha, Tishilo , Yarilka, Putyata, Miloneg).

History of Slavic names

Without a doubt, a significant part is connected with the names of people cultural life and formation folk traditions. In Russia, with the advent of Christianity, ancient Slavic names were almost completely forgotten. There were even lists of ancient Slavic names that were prohibited Christian Church. It is quite easy to guess the reasons for what is happening. Some of the names (Yarilo, Lada) were the names of ancient Slavic gods. Some of them formed a group of people who, after the baptism of Rus', tried to promote the restoration of the Old Slavonic cult and traditions.

Today in Russia Slavic names are not in fashion. They are called only 5% of babies born. This makes Russian culture poorer. Although ancient Slavic names (male) are undoubtedly truly Russian.

Propaganda of Slavic names is of great importance. People are trying to preserve ancient Slavic female names, full list which can be found in special publications.

Some of the names are very popular. Let's talk about two of them.

The meaning of the name Bogdan

Bogdan often becomes the late and only boy, the fruit of long expectations. Parents, sometimes regardless of their wishes, call those children who were born after great anxieties and fears this way. In infancy, Bogdan is prone to colds. At the same time, the mother, concerned about her son’s health, does not deny him anything.

The role of the father in upbringing is almost not felt. The child becomes attached to his mother, jealous of almost everyone. He lacks sociability, so he doesn’t get along very well with his peers. IN school years Bogdan is friends with children who enjoy authority among his comrades and who are able to stand up for him. The grades in the subjects are not very good. Despite the presence of abilities, natural laziness, to which Bogdan is prone, interferes. True, laziness becomes dull over time.

In adulthood, Bogdan - calm man with good self-esteem. He strives to get well in life and make a career. A man is capable of achieving heights in any specific specialty that does not require improvisation.

In the family, Bogdan wants to be the unquestioned leader. He likes his wives to be submissive and allow him to show his power. Such categoricalness manifests itself not only in relationships with his wife, but also in communication with colleagues and acquaintances. Having had too much alcohol, Bogdan can get involved in an argument on any occasion, without listening to his opponent’s arguments. At the same time, he has many character traits that turn him into good husband. For example, he shows persistence in seeking additional income, being frugal in his expenses. Bogdan likes to spend money only on vacations for the whole family.

The meaning of the name Radmila

Parents continue to choose Radmila - this is one of the most popular names. It combines two words: joyful and sweet. Despite the fact that the girl has a calm character, you should not leave her alone. Because of her developed imagination, it is not easy to predict what will come to her mind when she is left to her own devices.

Predisposed to colds and other infectious diseases. She is absolutely not afraid of dogs. Regardless of the size of the animals, he boldly approaches them and pets them.

Radmila asks adults a lot of different, sometimes unchildish questions that can confuse them. He enjoys communicating with strangers, since parents are sometimes tired of answering numerous questions. Radmila retains her sociability throughout her life. Radmila does not always experience pleasure when she finds herself in the center of someone else's attention. She is characterized by authority, but this trait makes her a potential leader.

Such ancient Russian names have become widespread in at the moment. Names have a long history, and it doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon.

In any cultural tradition, names are the most significant carrier of information about the development of a people. Names of Slavic origin, for example, have practically disappeared from use. They were replaced by Greek, Roman, Jewish and other names that are inherently alien to the descendants of the ancient Russians. This happened immediately after Rus' adopted Christianity.

The names of pagan gods, which at that time they wanted to eradicate not only from the everyday cultural life of the people, but also from their thoughts, were often part of men's names. An example of this is the ancient Slavic name Jaromir (Yarilo + world). Magi and heroes, who bore original Slavic names, were baptized by force and called them as prescribed by the Christian faith.

Russian and Slavic names: what's the difference?

IN last decade many parents began to call their children Slavic names. However, few people understand that the same Ivan (a Slavic name, it would seem) has nothing to do with Ancient Rus'. This name came to us along with baptism, and it came from the Hebrew “John”. This also includes popular lately names Zakhar, Matvey, Daniel and Egor. If you look more closely at such names, you can find their analogies in other cultures. For example, Luke in English is pronounced as Luke, Daniel - as Daniel. The same Matvey has overseas analogues (Matthew).

If we remember that at one time they tried to eradicate Slavic, that is, pagan names forever, we can conclude that they cannot have analogues in other cultures, because at that time (1st century AD) the assimilation of peoples had not reached a large scale . So, how can you recognize an ancient Slavic name? How to distinguish it from the biblical names forcibly grafted onto the Slavs? Let's find out about this right now.

What names can be considered originally Slavic

Almost all male Slavic names have features by which they can be distinguished from foreign ones. The presence of part of a word in them is exclusively Slavic origin and is this sign. Slavic names for boys have always carried a sacred meaning, so the combination of their components was not a simple set of words for the sake of euphony. It was also noted that the sound “A” was used very rarely among the Slavs, especially in proper names. Most often it was replaced by more soft sounds"I", "I" and "E".

As an example, we give two names, one of which many consider Slavic: Casimir and Parnassus. If you pay close attention to their components, you can see that Casimir was formed from two words: “to show”, “seems” and “mir”, which means “showing the world”. But the name Parnassus can be deciphered for a long time, looking closely at the combination of letters and listening to the sequence of sounds. Even if we assume that it is based on concepts such as “steam” and “us,” such a combination does not provide any semantic content.

Slavic names for men with two stems

Another noticeable feature by which male Slavic names can be identified is two stems. One part indicated qualities (glory, strength, power, authority, and so on). But the second part symbolized the subject or sphere of their influence (the world, everything, good, army, gods, etc.). By the way, boys who reached a certain age received double names, and before that they had the right to bear a family, simple name. Single-part names were also reserved for smerdas - representatives of the poor class in Rus'. It is worth talking in more detail about the procedure for naming boys and men among the Slavs, since there were many subtleties in this issue.

How names were given in Rus'

As mentioned earlier, Slavic names for boys carried a special meaning and were the key to the essence of a person. To prevent the baby from being “spoilt” (the evil eye, etc.), he was given a false name at birth. As a rule, it was ugly or did not characterize the boy with the best side. The list of Slavic male names of this group includes Kriv, Zloba, Nekras, Durnik or Fool.

When the child grew up and men began to raise him, he was given a new name that reflected the boy’s character and suited his main purpose. They also believed that such names endowed a man with certain qualities. Future warriors (warriors, heroes) were most often called by compound names: Ratibor, Yaropolk, Dobrognev. Hunters were given names such as Brave, Stoyan, or even called Wolf, Eagle, etc. Future clergy, and often warriors, were called names with the particle “holy.” These include the Slavic name Svyatoslav, which has again become popular. Farmers and livestock breeders received simpler names: Tishilo, Putyata, Yarilka or Tihomir. Often the Slavs gave a middle name to boys depending on the order of their birth.

The Slavs did not have any system of inheritance of names adopted by other peoples. Therefore, there were no generic names until the adoption of Christianity. But even after this, for several centuries, even noble ruling families did not practice naming boys in honor of their grandfathers and fathers.

Slavic names borrowed from animals and plants

Nowadays, few people want to give male Slavic names from the names of animals and plants to their son, since they sound, at least, strange. The fact is that the peasants (namely, they most often called their children this way) did not modify the names of animals in any way. The sons in this case were called Hares, Ruffs, Pike, Catfish and Nuts. These Russian (Slavic) names gave the world the surnames Zaitsev, Shchukin and Ershov.

How were you born: ordinal names

This group of names is not as numerous and diverse as others. Despite the fact that there were many children in Slavic families, not all descendants were born boys, and therefore the calculation was carried out up to a maximum of the tenth son. The eldest heir was usually called Pervak or Pervusha, the next - Vtorak, followed by Tretyak, Chetverik, Osmin, etc. According to research, ordinal names were often given to children at birth, and then replaced with a new, characteristic two-part name. Nevertheless, in the family of the already matured man, they continued to call him by his ordinal name. There are also surnames derived from them in modern Russia: Tretyakov, for example.

Terrible Slavic names

In Rus', as in any other state of that time, there were military units. If a boy after the age of seven was distinguished by strength, tall height or endurance, he was sent to be raised by the warriors. The names were given to them taking into account their purpose and contained information about the indestructibility of the body, the severity and unshakability of the warrior’s spirit. Just like Greek, Slavic names of this category have meanings such as “stone”, “rock”.

An example is the names Dubynya (strong, like an oak), Gorislav (glorious and at the same time mighty, like a mountain), Gorynya and Svyatogor. Names such as Mstislav (glorious for his revenge), Zima (harsh, cold and calculating) and Dobrognev (anger for the sake of good) were considered especially formidable.

ABOUT constant readiness to defend the life of their people they said names with the particle “bude”, “pako” and “voy”. As an example, we can cite the long-forgotten Slavic names Pakoslav and Budevoy.

Male Slavic names in honor of the gods

In the families of Slavic clergy (magi), children, as a rule, followed in the footsteps of their father, that is, they continued his Vedic path to spiritual cooperation with higher powers. Their names most often contain the particles “slav”, “light”, “wise” and “love”. By the way, it was this group of names that was the most extensive and diverse, because you can love and glorify anyone natural phenomenon, gods and aspects of everyday life.

Such names include Bogoslav (glorifying God), Jaromir (the world belonging to Yarilo, the sun god), Velimudr (possessing great wisdom), Lyubomir (loving the world), Svetozar (illuminating with light). This also includes such names as Lyubomysl (who loves to think), Bogomysl (who thinks about God), Dobroslav (who glorifies goodness), and many others.

What did the Slavs call boys with disabilities?

If a boy with physical disabilities (lame, hunchbacked) was born into a Slavic family, at first he was given the usual, “family” name: Nevzor (not seeing others), Nekras and Koschey (skinny, bony). Upon reaching the age of seven, they gave him a new name, reflecting his condition. As a rule, boys with disabilities and congenital physical disabilities grew up to be modest, flexible, spiritually rich people. It was these qualities that were reflected in their names. The Slavs also tried to give inferior youths names that could give them strength. They consisted of the particles “god”, “mil”, “lyubo”, “brother” and “sister”.

Examples of such names: Blagoslav (glorifying goodness, kindness), Bogomil (dear to God), Lyubomil, Bratomil and Sestromil (dear for brothers and sisters), Gostemil (dear for guests) and Krasimir (handsome and peace-loving). Thus the Slavs compensated physical disabilities child, turning them into spiritual, mental virtues.

However, it happened that a physically healthy man’s name was changed to a negative one. An example of this is the name Blud (unlucky, dissolute, fornicator) and Malice or Zlyda (vicious).

Slavic names of rulers, governors and other nobility

Since the ruling strata of the population owned some benefits, the main feature of their names are the particles “vladi”, “hold” and “led”. The formation of such names could not have taken place without such particles as “peace” and “glory”. Since these names were most often mentioned in various historical sources, several dozen of their variations have survived to this day.

Some of the most popular Slavic names are: Vladimir, Vladislav, Vsevolod, Vseslav and Izyaslav. They are still in demand, and sons are called them. Slightly less well-known, and therefore more common, are such names as Velislav, Berislav, Berimir and Borimir, Mecheslav, Wenceslav and Velimir. Governors and famous warriors who were granted principalities or volosts most often bore names with the particle “regiment”. Here it is worth remembering the legendary Slavic warriors Svyatopolk and Yaropolk.

False names and nicknames among the Slavs

In addition to names, it was the norm among the Slavs to give nicknames to boys. They did this for several reasons. Firstly, with the help of nicknames they hoped to ward off evil from the baby. Children's nicknames, or decoy names, as stated at the beginning of the article, carried a negative meaning. In those days people believed that evil people or the spirits will not covet Nekras, Fool or Crooked. This tradition existed even after the adoption of Christianity. Just remember the fairytale Ivan the Fool. The same was practiced with names for little girls. An example is also known to everyone from childhood - this is Princess Nesmeyana. Nicknames include those known by literary works the name Mazai meaning "smeared".

Nicknames, unlike real names, were known to everyone. Thus, if evil was planned against the boy (and according to the beliefs of the Slavs, for this it was necessary to know the name of the victim), it simply did not overtake him.

Beautiful Slavic names for boys. Examples

IN recent years male Slavic names are becoming more popular. Of course, there is no talk of a complete rejection of Greek, Jewish and Roman. However, returning to one's roots plays a large role in cultural identity. To name children in accordance with the traditions of their ancestors, such beautiful Slavic names as Svyatoslav, Yaroslav, Vladimir and Vsevolod are increasingly being used. Less often you can hear such names as Kazimir, Svyatogor and Dobrynya. The most popular names are those that belong to famous people: actors, musicians and politicians.

For example, the name Vladimir has been competing with the variants Alexander, Daniil and Alexey borrowed from other cultures for several decades.

In conclusion, I would like to say that not all names that are unknowingly classified as Slavic are actually Slavic. Be careful when choosing a name for your child. Contact historical sources and try to find signs of their Slavic origin on your own.
