Both foreigners and stars are distinguished by originality

This year, more than 101 thousand babies were born in the capital, last year 134.5 thousand, in 2011 - 125 thousand. Most often, parents chose such names for their sons as Artem, Alexander, Maxim, Ivan, Mikhail, and for girls - Sofia (Sofya), Maria, Anastasia, Daria, Anna. But from year to year there are also parents who want their heirs to have a name that no one else will have. The list of the most original names was compiled by Rossiyskaya Gazeta.

In Moscow, boys were called Dmitry-Amethyst, Matvey-Rainbow, Nikolai-Nikita-Nil, Count, Gift, Ivan-Kolovrat, Mercury, Kantogor-Egor, March, Christamrirados, Prince, Prince, Cosmos, Angel, Wind, Will, Dolphin, Yaroslav-Lyutobor, Ilya Bogodar, Kasper Beloved, Arkhip-Ural, Eremey Patron, Keith, Luke-Happiness, Summerset Ocean, Monono Nikita, Ogneslav, Buddha-Alexander, Mister, Peace.

According to the head of the Moscow Civil Registry Office, most often an exotic name awaits a child in a family where one of the parents is a foreigner.

Residents of the Moscow region are less inventive non-standard names. So, according to statistics for the last three years in the Moscow region, the boys were called: Anikey, Ion, Ermak, Lukilianne, Hoan, Altair, Andre, Prince, Yakub, Jason, Julius, Daniel. Girls: Zemfira, Cassandra, Esther, Zabava, Kupava, Ustina, Avdotya, Consuelo, Bereza, Cassiopeia, Madonna, Roksolana, Malina, Mercedes, Bagheera.

An unusual name is registered in the registry office of the town of Korolev near Moscow - Viagra. Happy parents, driver Nikolai and housewife Anastasia, explain their choice for three reasons. The first of them is the beauty and originality of the name, the second is that the drug of the same name contributed to the long-awaited conception of a child, and the third reason is the long-standing love for the VIA Gra group.

In Russian registry offices in the last three years such names as Zhuzha, Tulip, Lettuce, Millionaire, and Air Traffic Controller have been registered.

According to the American Pension Fund, every year hundreds and thousands of children with unusual names are registered in the United States: Eros, Charisma, Lancelot, Lexus, Fantasia and even Messiah. Thus, over the past two years, more than 1,000 Messiahs have been registered.

After the October Revolution in Soviet Russia It was fashionable to give children the most unimaginable names. In the dictionary of Russian personal names, authored by Nikandr Petrovsky, you can find the following popular names that era: Electrification, Revolution, Decree, Smychka, Tractor, Algebrina, Turbine, Diesel, Railcar.

It happened that girls were called Dazdraperma (from the slogan “Long live the First of May”), Revdit (“Child of the Revolution”), Pofistal (“Winner of Fascism Joseph Stalin”) and even Perkosrak (“First Space Rocket”).

But among the strange revolutionary names there were also those that then caught on and were used to call babies for a long time afterwards. For example, Vladlen (abbreviated as Vladimir Lenin), Ninel (the same Lenin, only in reverse), Kim (Communist Youth International).

In the family of football player David Beckham, one of the children was named Brooklyn in honor of the New York area. American rock musician Frank Zappa named his daughter Lunar Satellite. The daughter of the famous film actress Gwyneth Paltrow received the simple name Apple, and David Bowie christened his son Zoe: the singer thought this was a good consonance - Zoe Bowie. By the way, the son never appreciated the violent creative imagination your parent. Having grown up, he replaced Zoe with the neutral Joe, which, they say, greatly upset his father.

Other hollywood celebrities turned out to be no less original. Today, among star children there are such names as Dandelion (Dandelion), Pitches (Peach), Pixie (Fairy) and even Fifi Trixiebel - a combination of sounds that defies translation.

The most long name in the world is borne by an Indian whose last name is Brahmatra. It consists of 1478 letters, representing a series of names merged together historical places, names of famous diplomats, theologians, scientists, etc. It takes at least ten minutes to read it.

In comparison, the full name of Miss S. Ellen Georgiane Ser-Lekken from Montana in the USA is mere trifle, only 598 letters. A lush set of names is not uncommon in Spain. Famous artist Pablo Picasso's full name was Pablo Diego Jose Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno Crispin Crispiano de la Santisima Trinidad Ruiz and Picasso.

And in France there lived a family without a surname. Instead, she bore a set of numbers - 1792. And four sons in this family bore the names of the months of the year. Thus, in the passport and other documents it looked like this: January 1792, February 1792, March 1792 and April 1792. Last representative This strange kind of Mr. March 1792 died in September 1904.

Every parent dreams of their child being something special. And what could better emphasize this very feature than a name? So every year children appear in Russia with a variety of strange names. Fortunately, the flight of parental imagination has recently been restrained by a presidential decree of May 1, 2017, prohibiting the use of numbers, symbols, obscene language, job title or title in a name.

There was an assumption that the ban would also include compound names, as well as abbreviated names. However, legislators did not tighten the screws and, since many similar names came into practice, they left this situation as it is.

10. State of mind

Opens the list of the most unusual names in Russia female name Joy. Loving parents gave their daughter one of the most beautiful and unusual female names. Interestingly, in neighboring Slavic countries female names with the root – glad – are common and do not surprise anyone. Joy has “sisters”: Delight, Golub, and "brother" Gift. All these names were once common in the past, but have now been forgotten.

At the same time, the names Faith, Love, Nadezhda are still encountered (although not very popular) and do not cause surprise, but they also denote feelings.

However, there are parents who, in an effort to name their child more original, do not stop at just the expression emotional state. In 2010, employees of one of the capital's registry offices had to register a boy with the name Luke-Happiness Summerset Ocean.

9. What I see, I sing about

Sometimes parents turn to the world around them for inspiration. Some options are quite euphonious, for example, Angara, Yenisei, Moon, April.

Whale, Ocean and Oceana look more exotic, but the construction “common name” plus “geographical object” looks very strange, for example, Arkhip-Ural.

Female names sound beautiful and even affectionate Sofia-Solnyshko And Zarya-Zaryanitsa.

But there are also names of Russian children that use the names of foreign rivers. In 2000, a baby was born, who was given the name Nikolai-Nikita-Nil.

8. Look to nature for inspiration

And if there are not enough geographical objects, plants and animals are used. The name Rose is now unlikely to surprise anyone, because there are much rarer options.

Popular name Dolphin– it is present in both masculine and female version. There is also Fox, Panda, Iris, Cherry, Tulip and even (one of the strangest male names) Lettuce. How will you live in further person With such an exotic name, the parents did not seem to think twice about it.

7. The power of numbers

If you take the most ordinary name and double it, then suddenly something bright and even, dare we say it, exotic appears in this name. Apparently, these thoughts were guided by the parents who gave their daughter the name Polina-Polina. After all, Polina alone is so boring! And two are much better.

Or here Sasha-Alexander, Same good option. What if someone doesn’t realize at first that it’s a boy in front of them, so the middle name will immediately clarify this.

6. You can’t forbid living beautifully

Well, how can you not give your child the most unusual name for a girl, embodying all the parents’ longing for a luxury that is inaccessible to them? This is how they are born Princess Daniella and her sisters in spirit, Princess Angelina And Alice-Nefertiti. You can also hint at the child’s future successes by simply calling him Millionaire, Graph, Prince or Prince.

Parents more modestly limit themselves to adding something original to an ordinary name - of course, with a hyphen, because everyone knows that double names more beautiful than usual. For example, Dmitry-Amethyst, Matvey-Rainbow or Alena-Flower.

5. Unconventional values

It's nice to have a little supernatural creature next to you in the stroller (even if it's still wet diapers and drooling). Starting from Angel and Seraphim and ending with the whole Buddha-Alexander.

But the Perm couple Menshikovs, belonging to the Satanist sect, made an even worse number and named their son Lucifer. When the registry office workers tried to dissuade the parents from their idea, they explained that Lucifer is “a symbol of self-sufficiency and protest.” It encourages individuality, which means the name carries a positive meaning.

So far, Lucifer Konstantinovich does not show demonic nature in anything. Like mere mortals, he was cutting teeth, not fangs, no horns, and happy parents stood in line for kindergarten.

Recently married couple a second baby was born. At first they wanted to call him Lestat, in honor of one of the book vampires, but then they called him simpler, Voldemar.

4. Interests and hobbies

Parental interests are another source of the strangest baby names. Recently, in the registry office of one of the cities near Moscow, parents wished to give their daughter a name Viagra. The reason is a long-standing and mutual love for this group.

And there are babies in Russia Jazz And Chelsea. It’s immediately clear what parents are interested in, right?

3. There is no such thing as too much patriotism

It happens that patriotic delight is so tight in your chest that you want to pour it out on everyone who comes to hand. That’s how, in 2014, a girl with the name was born in the Buryat city of Kyakhta Russia. At the same time, even the wife dissuaded her husband from such a decision, but he remained firm.

And there's also a boy Crimea and a girl Syria. And even Tagil and Sevastopol.

Crimea was named after the reunification of the peninsula of the same name with Russia. His parents affectionately call him Krymchik, Krymushka, and sometimes Crimea is ours.

The name Tagil is given in honor of the city in which the child was born. The registry office employees asked my father to think about it, but he was adamant. He stated that the word “tagil” translated from Mansi means “a lot of water.” How this will help the boy in the future is still unclear.

But what guided the parents Sevastopol- We do not know. Perhaps they were inspired by the same motive as the parents of Crimea.

2. Have an idea

Here the Muscovite intellectuals have already distinguished themselves by wishing to name their son BOCh rVF 260602. This scary-looking abbreviation simply stands for: “ biological object “person” of the Voronin-Frolov family, born on June 26, 2002».

The name is not simple, but ideological, arising from the father’s love for science fiction and robots. Common names, in his opinion, progress is being hampered, but the name of his child fully corresponds to the lofty idea of ​​​​the development of science and technology.

True, at the registry office the little people turned out to be ignorant and did not register the child with that name. Therefore, his parents had to apply for an international passport for him. Anyone can get it, and a document is issued called “passport of a citizen of the world” non-profit organization World Service Authority. Her office is located in Washington.

After reaching the age of 14, the child will most likely be recorded in the passport as Boch Frolov. For parents, this is a forced formality, and the son is already accustomed to this abbreviation of his very long “robot” name.

1. International situation

And the list of the strangest names for children in Russia is topped by political names. Popularity of the current Russian leader made some parents want to name their offspring... no, not Vladimir Vladimirovich, but Putin. Just Putin.

Putin recently got a brother Shoigu and soul sister Medmiya(short for Dmitry Medvedev).

Other parents of the same mindset do not dare to aspire to great things, preferring to name their children after political events. This is how they were registered Vyborina And Shosina(from the SCO - Shanghai Cooperation Organization) are certainly one of the most unusual female names on the territory of the Russian Federation.

Fortunately, any person who has become a “victim” of their parents’ creativity has the opportunity to change their name to a more “boring” one, but one that is familiar to the ears of others. To change your name yourself, you must be 14 years of age and (with written permission from your parents) contact your local civil registry office. They will tell you how to write an application for a name change and what documents you will need to collect for this. And after 18 years of age, written permission from parents is not required to change the name.

According to the Moscow Civil Registry Office, Alexander is the leader among the most popular male names in 2017. The name Mikhail is slightly less popular, and Artem closes the top three.

When it comes to the most popular names for girls, the top three have remained unchanged since 2015. The first line is occupied by the name Sofia, the second belongs to the name Maria, and the third is Anna.

Each person is given his own at birth given name. Basically, the names are all quite famous and popular. But there are people who want to stand out very much and therefore give their children extremely unusual names, which are difficult to name. So let's see what the most unusual names were given to people in the world.

1. One Chicago family decided to name their five children after various diseases. The names of these children were: Appendicitis, Tonsillitis, Peritonitis, Meningitis and Laryngitis.

2. There lived a family whose last name was a set of numbers - 1792. They gave names to their children in honor of the months of the year. That is, the first child’s name was January 1792, the second child’s name was February 1792, the third was March, and the fourth, respectively, April. But the last to die was March in 1904.

3. They also called us strange names. For example, the name DAZDRAPERMA, which meant “Long live the first of May.” The name LORIERIC (Lenin, October Revolution, Industrialization, Electrification, Radiofication and Communism) or MELS (Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin) was also found. When Gagarin flew, they came up with a name - URYURVKOS (Hurray! Yura in space). In general, Soviet names are a separate issue. You can even dedicate a separate post to them)

4. Youngest daughter The owner of one of the restaurants on the Hawaiian Islands had a name consisting of as many as 102 letters - NapuAmoHalaOnaAnekaVeheeVeheeOnaHiveaNenaWawaKehoOnkaKaheHeaLekeEaOnNeiNanaNiaKekoOaOgaWanIkaVanao. Translated into Russian, this means something like “The beautiful flowers of the mountains and valleys fill with their fragrance all the length and breadth of the Hawaiian islands.” However, this is not the longest name in the world. There is a name consisting of 1500 letters.

5. IN Latin America people often like to call their children names such as Taj Mahal, Hitler, Lenin, Elvis Presley, etc.

6. The name VIAGRA is registered in the town of Korolev near Moscow. The parents explain this by saying that the conception of this child occurred thanks to this well-known drug, in addition, they both love famous group Viagra. Of course, all this seems funny and unusual to parents, but the child may have problems because of this name, especially in adolescence, when the children’s psyche is unstable.

7. There are even cases where people change their names to Internet addresses. For example, one Canadian changed his name to Mr. Freebeerstore. For this, the owner of the website of the same name paid him $37,000. Another girl from changed her name to the Internet address of an organization that opposes animal testing.

8. In Novgorod (long ago) lived the Lenev family (from the Lin fish). The father did not struggle with names for his four children for a long time. He also named them after fish: Som Linev, Ruff Linev, Sudak Linev and Perch Linev.

9. In Kyiv, parents are clearly jokers because they named their child Cinderella. But the most interesting thing is that it was a boy, not a girl.

10. In the USA, there have been cases where children were named after their loved ones search engines, namely Google and Yahoo.

Of course, this is not the entire list. is there some more different names, which could easily end up on this list. But I would like to point out something else: parents want to stand out, but their children suffer.
