Horrible names for men. The most ridiculous names in Russia for children. Unusual and strange names

Recently, in an effort to stand out from the rest, many parents around the world are trying to give their child an unusual name. Russian mothers and fathers are no exception.

Enthusiasm non-standard names started back in Soviet times. For example, after the victory in World War II, people began to call the kids patriotically: Pofistal (Victor of fascism Joseph Stalin), Uryurvkos (Hurray, Yura in space!), Ivis (J.V. Stalin), Izil (executor of Ilyich’s behests), Stator ( Stalin triumphs).

In the 90s of the twentieth century in Russia there was also a surge of interest in unusual names, especially with a foreign connotation. Instead of Mikhail, it was fashionable to name the child Michael or Michel, instead of Elizabeth - Louise, instead of Alexei - Alex, etc. After some time, the pro-Western version of Russian names gradually faded away.

In the 2000s, the fashion for Western names was replaced by a new trend: names such as Prokhor, Potap, Zakhar, Praskovya, Agafya suddenly began to gain popularity... But the fantasy of Russian parents did not end there. When naming their children, they began to use names that had never been used before. We have collected the strangest and most unusual of them.

Patriotic names

In June 2010, a Ryazan family named their child in honor political party – United Russia.

“My wife and I respect the largest party in our country,” said the baby’s father, Sergei Lapshin. – We believe that “United Russia” symbolizes political strength, strength, confidence in plans and goals. That’s why we named our son that.”

In the same family, a girl named Putin is growing up.

In 2011, in Omsk, parents gave the newborn the name Medmiya, naming her in honor of the then Russian President and now Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.

“We thought for a long time what to name our daughter. If there was a son, they would give him the name Dmitry. In the end, they tried to shorten “Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev” to an abbreviation,” the parents said in an interview with the Omskpress portal.

Perhaps United Russia and Medmiya will find in the future mutual language with a boy from Khakassia named Vlapunal (stands for “Vladimir Putin is our leader”) and a girl Vyborina. The children were born on election day in 2007, which is why they received these names.

Names from loyal fans

Eight girls with the name Arya, named after the heroine of the series “Game of Thrones”, are registered in Moscow.

The worldwide popular TV series Game of Thrones, based on George R.R. Martin's epic fantasy novel A Song of Ice and Fire, inspired Russian parents to name their children after their favorite characters. There are eight girls with the name Arya registered in Moscow, and four in St. Petersburg. They were named, apparently, in honor of the heroine of the series Arya Stark, a brave girl with a difficult fate.

It is interesting that parents give their children names not only positive, but also negative characters. Yekaterinburg has its own Theon (Theon Greyjoy, according to the plot of the series, is a traitor), and Chelyabinsk has Petyr and Varys (heroes of very dubious virtue).

Another popular name recently is Cinderella. This was the name given to girls in Tula and Apsheronsk, as well as to a boy in Kyiv.

Perm residents Natalya and Konstantin Menshikov went even further. They gave their newborn son the name Lucifer, which shocked not only the registry office workers, but also all their relatives, as well as church representatives.

“We are Satanists. Lucifer is a symbol of freedom of thought, pride and intelligence. Society simply promoted a stereotype that Satanism is supposedly vandalism, listening heavy music and drink, but that’s not true,” says the baby’s mother.

Names and titles

Some parents want their children to be head and shoulders above the rest from birth. Otherwise, how to explain that they call their sons Count, Master and even Prince?

For some reason, such names are especially loved by parents from Voronezh region. Over the past few years, children with the names Tsar, Queen and Prince have been registered there.

Natural names

The most romantic mothers and fathers try to give their children “sublime” names. This is how they appear: Dawn, Moon, Flower, Oceana, Sun, Rainbow, Dolphin and Dolphin, Cherry.

Geographic names

Why not name your child after a country or city? Many foreign parents have long taken note of this. For example, the American star Paris Hilton (if you translate her name into Russian, then this is Paris) or the son of Victoria and David Beckham - Brooklyn (in honor of the New York borough). Our compatriots also decided to keep up.

In first place in popularity is the name Russia. This is how girls were named in Kirov, Kemerovo, Voronezh region and Yamal. Moms and dads who decided to give such a majestic name to their children are sure that they now have a special mission that is important for the country.

Recently the media wrote about a girl named Syria. The baby’s father was on a business trip in this country when she was born, so the mother decided to name her daughter that.

Among other “geographical” names of children there are: India, Parisian, Moscow, America, Sevastopol, Byzantium and the “trend” of the past year - Crimea.

Double names

Double names are also becoming fashionable. For example, singer Philip Kirkorov named his daughter Alla Victoria. Other parents show more more imagination. According to Russian registry offices, in 2014-2015 children were registered under the names: Salad-Lettuce, Luka-Schastya, Maxim-Moscow and Arkhip-Ural.

Why does a child need an unusual name?

According to most mothers and fathers, they give their children unusual names with the best of intentions. First of all, so that they attract attention and stand out from the crowd. However, as surveys show, after a few years, about 10% of parents begin to regret their decision. This happens because the child begins to be ridiculed by peers.

Many people with unusual names, already as adults, told how many negative emotions they had to suffer because of it. It turns out that about 78% of children suffered from their name in early years, and about 22% changed it to a more traditional one when they grew up.

Non-standard names may be prohibited

The Rodina party has prepared a bill that would prohibit giving children strange names– in particular, those containing numbers, symbols and profanity, as well as signifying ranks (for example, Count, Princess or Queen). The authors of the project believe that such a measure will protect children from problems in communicating with peers.

This initiative was supported by social psychologist Natalya Varskaya: “Children who are somehow different from the rest always cause ridicule, especially if a child with the name Tsar or Count does not correspond to them with his behavior, upbringing, and intellect. There is no need to expose your child to unnecessary stress and stress on the psyche; as a result, the child may begin to withdraw into himself and grow up with the attitude that everyone is an enemy.”

On this moment Russian parents are given complete freedom when choosing a name for their child, the only restriction is that it must consist only of letters, numbers are not allowed.

There are people who love everything simple and ordinary. But there are those who prefer either to live in an original way, or to surround themselves with something original in life. These are the kind of people who make parents who give their newborn daughters and sons rare, original or bizarre names. Our top 10 most unusual names in Russia will tell you about such unexpected variants of names that were officially registered in Russia.

Interesting article. I would still like to make some clarifications. About Georgian names. “Mgelika” (“wolf cub”), or “Mgelia” (wolf), is a non-baptismal, pagan name; now used in the form of "Gela"; This male name. Popular female names: Tamari, Nino, Ketevan, Khatuna, Khatia, Natali (“bright”, synonymous with Svetlana), Mariami... By the way, “Tamari” is Georgian for “temple”.

A beautiful name - Maayan... I would say, although I am a grandmother, I am brave))

In Russia, however, as in other countries, there are people who are not entirely normal in their heads, who are lucky to have children, but unlucky with their minds. And it would be nice if their quirks affected only themselves - children also suffer. First of all, because they are given the most ridiculous names. It is difficult not to doubt the adequacy of such parents.
The most unusual and stupid name Of all the ones I came across on the Internet, the one I received was a boy from Moscow. His name is BOCH rVF 260602, which stands for “biological object of a person of the Voronin-Frolov family, born on June 26, 2002.”
Another abnormal mother from the Moscow region named her son Reduxin in honor of the medicine, thanks to which she was able to lose weight and meet her husband.
And football fans went crazy about the coach of the Russian national team, Guus Hiddink, and named their sons after him - Gus. Imagine that a person’s name is Gus Evgenievich Gorodnikov or Gus Vyacheslavovich Khmelev. These are all real people!

Fortunately, on May 1, 2017, a law came into force in Russia that will allow, at least slightly, to limit eccentric parents, preventing them from using the most unusual, strange and ridiculous names in Russia. Now numbers and any characters other than a hyphen are prohibited in a person’s name. Also, the government completely prohibited the use of swear words and obscenities for this purpose.

All parents, without exception, long before the birth of their baby, went through a huge number of names in order to find something worthy for their newborn child, and this has always been the case. But often potential mothers and fathers go through not only well-known names, but also the most unusual Russian names, among which there are a huge number unknown to the world and little-known even in our Russian society.

Well, in our next article we just want to talk about what the most unusual Russian names exist, and which of them were in demand in the territory of modern Russia...

Male unusual Russian names

In general, there are many strange names, in particular Russian ones. But be that as it may, the strangest Russian names, male and female, appeared precisely during the existence of Soviet Union. Then name forms were invented by everyone who needed it, and this was done according to the simplest scheme- a child was born, and a name was invented for him, dedicated to the date of his birth. The name of such a child could be a combination of several words, or even several surnames of famous celebrities.

In addition, the most unusual Russian male names were then neologisms; babies born were named after October revolution, in honor of Soviet heroes, scientific discoveries, honorable professions and everything that could come to mind to the Soviet man. This is how children were born, who were given such strange Russian variations of names as Potassium, Wolfram, Decembrist, Median, and even Tankman.

Today, unfortunately, you will no longer meet people named in this way, but this is only because at one time there was a period when people largely changed their names to the most famous, more common ones.

Returning to main topic. I would like to note that the strangest name forms were created not according to the previously discussed scheme, but according to a different one - the present folk art was manifested in moments of revolution, on the basis of slogans and appeals, for example. For example, there are such Russian variations as:

- Arvil - stands for “Army of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin”;

— Kukutsapol – “corn” plus “king of the fields”;

— Whist – the historical power of labor is great;

- Villur - Vladimir Ilyich Lenin loved his Motherland;

— Papir is a party pyramid.

Or in those days they could call a boy even, not just an unusual, but a completely strange and even unpleasant name. Such nominal variations include Vil, Constipation, Pofivstal and others.

Strange name forms for women

Unusual and strange female names exist even today - girls were called by strange names much more often, but most of them were still beautiful despite their strangeness. So, to this day there are such variations as;

— Dinera is a child of the new era;

— Velira – great and working;

- Artaka - artillery academy;

— Donera is the daughter of a new era.

In general, even the most unusual names were not a novelty then, no one was surprised by this, but what is much more interesting is that girls in some regions of our country are called variations of the past even today. So, five years ago, in one of the remote regions, a girl’s name was found that sounded like “Dazdrasmyga”, and this, whatever one may say, is a Soviet variation, which stands for “long live the bond of city and village.”

Modern most unusual female and male names

IN modern times There are also newly created unusual names, both for women and for men. So, here are the most interesting and at the same time stupid ones:

- Yausyauh - I'm tired, I'm leaving;

- Vlaput - Vladimir Putin;

- Vsepod - all scum;

- Vinovoda - in honor of Novodvorskaya;

- Ganju - in honor of Gennady Zyuganov;

— Porof is a disgrace to Russian football.

And there are also such unusual variations as Dogzeb, Valino, Vovviko, Ganju, Gazyuga, Irmukha, Yavliga, Makahod, and Yumluzh. All these names really exist, and the owners of some of them still live with these names. But this is in Russia, and as for the West, the era of invented names is completely progressing there. So, for example, in the USA, children are named after stars, both sports and pop, film actors and presidents, and naturally, they simply come up with them based on various personal motives.

On the disadvantages of rare and unusual names

Researchers for a long time in turn, studied such names and came to several interesting conclusions. The main one of these conclusions indicates that all the most unusual Russian male and female names are endowed with strong energy, one on which the entire life of the named person will depend in the future - a rather interesting factor.

The second factor indicates that if the name form of a boy or girl is too strange, the child will feel defective and inferior all his life, which will accordingly affect his psychological state and self-confidence.

Well, the third, but no less important factor, talks about the meaning of the name, which in turn is simply absent in such names - that is, the influence of astrological symbols, such as the patron planet, element, and even the talisman stone is lost.
