Brief energy information characteristics of some names

Anna

The main karmic program named after Anna– this is attachment and dependence on relationships. Throughout life, this program causes problems in relationships with loved ones - parents, children, beloved men.

All Annas are very affectionate, and as a rule, Anna becomes attached to men who are clearly unworthy of attention. Annas usually lead a promiscuous sex life, their genitourinary area is vulnerable to diseases. Many Annas cannot get married. Their acquaintances with men are usually fleeting.

If the girl is named Anna, then there is a high probability that a serious conflict exists or is brewing in the family. Usually this is a husband's dissatisfaction with his wife. That is, Anna's father is dissatisfied with her mother. Such a child's soul is attracted to a conflicting family.

Since Anna does not have enough energy, she constantly needs energy recharge in the form of new experiences - travel, meetings with friends, etc.

The vibrations of this name activate negative karmic programs first of all. And these programs attract negative events into Anna’s life.

The name Anna worsens a person’s karmic achievements and significantly complicates fate. If a person has lived long enough, then under the influence of this name he becomes a pessimist and has many disappointments. This name shakes a woman’s psyche.

Anna needs a mentally healthy environment, reliable, loyal people, friends. But usually there are few or no such people in her environment. Because when they give practical advice on how to act in situations life choice, she doesn’t listen to them, she does it her own way. For which he then pays. He chooses with emotions, not with reason.

The name Anna leaves a tragic, pessimistic imprint on a woman. And therefore does not contribute to her success in life.

Even if you take a double name, for example, Anna-Maria, it still carries tragedy.

Anna is one of the most unfortunate female names.

Yana

A woman named Yana is haunted throughout her life by a deep subconscious fear. This is a karmic program. This program encourages her to take active steps in making her way in society, career, and business.

Yana has a fairly strong will, increased sexual appetite and a smart head. Her energy is of a masculine type.

As a child she may be a shy child, but in most cases, as soon as a little strength appears in her muscles, from the age of 8-9, her willpower, pressure, and punchy character begin to manifest themselves more and more to a greater extent. In order to achieve her goal, she can resort to cunning, pushing with her elbows those who interfere with her. Yana's belligerence is quite high.

A woman named Yana is a cunning warrior in a skirt. Where there is a lack of talent, mental abilities, Yana's physical strength will be used cunning, deceit, intrigue. In principle, she is even capable of setting things up for profit.

Women named Yana are rarely beautiful. Therefore, in order to attract a partner, they use psychological tricks, official position and even magic. You must clearly understand that if fate brought you and Yana together, then she will stop at nothing to achieve her goals.

Of course, there are exceptions, but they are very rare. Only a person with very high positive spiritual developments can resist the energy of the name Yana and remain a decent person in every sense of the word.

Yana, unlike Anna, is picky about her sexual partners. And if someone gets into her bed, it will be only because she wanted it.

Yana's lovers are most often men with a pronounced Yin character, or men significantly younger than her.

The man who is next to Yana must be subordinate to her. She wouldn't agree otherwise. Therefore, a strong, self-confident, strong-willed man will not even look at Yana.

Stanislava

Stanislava– this name makes a woman an emotional and selfish person. A woman with this name will not make a career, although she is an intelligent person.

This name creates great difficulties in your personal life. There will be men in life, but all are passing options.

Stanislava will take care of her children, but will not be able to provide for them financially; she will have constant worries about this.

She may turn to alcohol, tobacco, or recreational drugs to relieve stress.

This name is too emotional for a career, business and serious, responsible work.

Valeria

Valeria– the energy of the name is closer to the masculine type. She can be a leader, but it is very difficult for her. She can succeed as a second person in business, be a good assistant, organizer, and performer. But in your personal life you are rarely lucky. There is some trace of sadness. Because of this, a person almost completely devotes himself to work, to his career.

Agafya

Agathia (Agafia)– this is a material person with reduced intelligence . This name gives many desires, especially of a material nature - money, material well-being. For this reason, a woman with this name will clamp down on everyone around her. It will especially hurt her husband and son if they don’t run away from her. Or they will drink.

This name strongly blocks the 4th energy center (middle of the chest), killing love. In fact, there is a hardening of the soul.

Name image- a village woman of strong build, unkemptly dressed, ugly. Grumpy, constantly dissatisfied facial expression. This person is an energy vampire. It's hard to live with such a person.

Loving and responsible parents, expecting the birth of a child, try to provide for everything - they select a doctor to manage the pregnancy, renovate the children's room, buy a crib.

But one of the most important and exciting moments while waiting for the appearance of your dearest person in the world is choosing a name for your child. When a daughter is born, parents, going through the most tender, most beautiful names for girls, they try to choose the most suitable name for their daughter.

The name will accompany a person throughout his life. It will make an imprint on his fate; how exactly the child is named can shape his entire future. Often close relatives and grandparents are involved in choosing a name.

The name is chosen according to a variety of criteria, the child is called:

There are common cases when a child chooses what name he will have. For example, responding to a certain name with movements and jolts. Sometimes a child’s name is chosen based on the time of year.

During times Ancient Rus', the choice of the child’s name was influenced by certain events - Thunderstorm, Zarya, the attitude of the parents towards the child - Zabava, Lyubava, Zhdana, Otrada, as well as the desire of the parents to endow their daughter with certain qualities - Bogumila, Lyudmila, Dobroslava, Vsemila, Radosveta.

Even after the spread of Christianity in Rus', for a long time, for a long time, along with the church name he received at baptism, relatives also gave a second name - Old Church Slavonic, to the child, believing that it would help protect the baby from troubles and illnesses.

There was a custom to protect often sick or weak children - parents carried a child out of the hut with sentences that we would take away a child with a certain name, and bring another into the house, who was called by a different, new name.

And in order for the evil spirits to completely lose interest in the baby, in this case they tried to choose a dissonant name - Nesmeyan, Nezhdan, or they called it by a name denoting some animal - Swan, Pike, Magpie.

Choosing a name according to the church calendar

With the advent of Orthodoxy in Rus', the name of the child was chosen by the clergyman, naming the child in accordance with the church calendar. The church successfully fought against pagan rituals and soon church names almost replaced names of pagan origin.

At the sacrament of baptism, the child began to be named, in accordance with the Saints. Saints, or Prayer Book, is a church calendar Orthodox holidays and days of honoring Orthodox saints. By giving the child the name of the saint whose day is close to the baby’s birthday, parents expect that he will protect the child and help him throughout his life.

Parents, according to the Prayer Book, tried to select not only the most significant names according to the saint, but also to choose the most beautiful names for girls. The day on which the saint after whom the girl is named is honored will become the day of her Angel. Angel's Day does not always coincide with the baby's birthday. The Saints contain over 1,700 names of various saints, both female and male.

When choosing a name for a baby from the Prayer Book, you need to remember:

A double name is given to a girl if she has already been named by a name that is not used in the Saints, unless this name is Orthodox. Or if the priest advises choosing for the girl the name of the saint who is most suitable for her by birth.

A selection of beautiful, rare and unusual names for girls:

TOP 10 most unusual and beautiful names for girls:

Many sources claim that a name can influence a person's destiny. It is not yet possible to prove or disprove this with a 100% guarantee. But every parent strives to give their baby a beautiful and, in his opinion, euphonious name.

Nowadays, you can increasingly hear unusual names that came to us from abroad or “obtained” from ancient books. Even in society, children with rare names no longer react as sharply as they did ten years ago. It seems that such variety simplifies the task of naming your baby. But this is not true: a wide choice complicates the decision-making process. Sometimes it’s even difficult to narrow down the circle to two or three options.

1. How to choose a good name for a child

There are a number of criteria that will help parents make the right choice. The beauty of the sound of the full version alone may not be enough. The following should be analyzed:

• origin of the name;
• short form euphony;
• compatibility with the surname;
• meaning, translation and more.

Often parents choose names based on family customs. For example, one name can be passed on from generation to generation or two can alternate. Or parents, by coincidence, have names starting with the same letter. They may wish to preserve this feature and name the child with this factor in mind.

If we talk about fashion trends, then the trend is Old Slavonic, international and even short names that are included in documents. Among the latter are Marusya, Sasha, Lena, Keith and others. Even fictitious names are no longer uncommon.

If you come up with the idea of ​​inventing a name yourself, then you should take into account the combination of each of the syllables of the word and its full sound. The chosen or invented word should be melodious. Its purpose is to emphasize the character that parents would like to see in a child. Or focus attention on some visible features of the baby. For example, red hair or big eyes.

2. Fashionable and beautiful names for boys

It is believed that a beautiful name is of great importance only for a girl. However, parents are seriously puzzled by the process of naming a boy. It is at this moment that fathers and mothers strive to instill in the child some traits that will need to be developed in the future. Therefore, most names chosen for male babies mean nobility, masculinity, strength, courage, intelligence and the ability to protect the weak.

Among the usual male names, their own variations appeared, designed to make these words more refined and original. This is due to the new generation of young parents who are fighting for the uniqueness of everything associated with their offspring. This is how all kinds of Maximus, Alejandro and Damian are born.

The desire to bring foreign chic into the ordinariness of Russian reality gave birth to countless Alens, Bernards, Daniels, Jules, Laurents, Lucs, Mathieu, Nathans, Pierres and others among the Ivanovs and Sergeys, who undoubtedly attracted the attention of boys. Parents with such a wild imagination should take into account that Francisco Ivanov or Gunter Semenov will cause nothing but laughter from their classmates. Even adults will not be able to calmly react to such combinations.

For those who have not yet decided on a name for a male child, we can recommend the following list of names suitable for our region and at the same time beautiful:

3. Choosing a name for a girl

If a girl is born, parents also face a difficult task. During adolescence, girls are more likely than boys to say that they do not like their name. Of course, you can make reference to a rebellious age and whims, but you should still make sure in advance that the child himself likes the name.

Interesting fact: Roman women most often did not have their own name. They were awarded only a family name or the so-called cognomen of the husband. In Greece, it was quite the opposite: every girl born was given a completely new name.

4. Popular Russian names

The choice of foreign names is extremely wide. But for the sake of harmony, it is still better to consider those that are more familiar to the Russian ear. These do not have to be native Russian names. You can use those that originated from Greek or Jewish culture, but are already firmly entrenched in the minds of the Russian people.

Among these are especially popular:

• Anastasia;
• Alexander;
• Elena;
• Sofia;
• Maxim;
• Michael;
• Sergey.

They have been chosen for children for many decades, making the names traditional. Some recent years you can notice a surge in the popularity of the names Trofim, Evdokia, Matvey, Prokhor, Seraphim. This is explained by the fact that fashion is cyclical and Zabavs and Lyubomirs are increasingly appearing among children.

The main thing when choosing a beautiful and original name, withstand the measure. Only in this case will the child, regardless of gender, feel comfortable throughout his life.

When naming their daughter, parents must understand: the name is the most important decoration of the girl, which she will wear throughout her life. Stella or Milada? Bazhena or Carolina? Clara or Zoryana? Or maybe just Love? Rare and beautiful names for girls are presented in such abundance that it is difficult not to get confused. But which one is right for your baby, and what is the correct name for your daughter? About this - in our material.

Today, the influence of a woman’s name on her character, quality and life expectancy is studied quite widely. Moreover, the topic is considered by both official science, predictive practices, and magic. It's understandable that many parents want to know how it all works. After all, it is so important to write down not only a beautiful full name on the birth certificate, but good fortune for my daughter.

The name is determined by the calendar, season, numbers and science

Thus, astrologers draw up special horoscopes for newborns, allowing them to determine a successful naming option. Numerologists select the “correct” names by calculating the number of the child’s date of birth. Healers ask nature what unusual name to name a girl: they recommend choosing options based on the time of year and month of birth.

There is also anthroponymy. This is a separate scientific area for studying the history of the emergence and evolution of the full name, the patterns of functioning of its components. In their works, anthroponymic scientists analyze various proper names and identify the most successful combinations of full names.

For believing Orthodox Christians, the most recommended option for naming a girl is according to the calendar. So, the name is given in honor of a saint whose day coincides with the baby’s birthday or falls on the eighth or fortieth day from birth.

How children were named in the old days

Our ancestors took a simpler approach to naming girls. And at the same time, the names of the beauties of that time could have been the most unusual. In Rus', they were selected so that the baby could be distinguished from other family members. For example, Pervusha was the first child. The name reflected her external characteristics: the girl Chernava grew up dark-skinned and had dark hair. And Nekrasa was not born too pretty.

Characteristics or behavior were taken as a basis: Crybaby, Smart girl. The baby was named taking into account the circumstances of her birth. For example, Istoma grew up in families where the mother suffered during childbirth. And Snezhana was born in the cold. It could also indicate the attitude of adults towards the girl: Zhdana, Nezhdana, Lyubava, Darena.

Anna, Maria and Sofia are the three most popular female naming options on the planet. Although sound in different countries they may not be the same because they have many synonyms. For example, Annette, Marie and Sophie live in France. And Hanna, Marichen and Zofa are in Germany.

Many modern female names literally fascinate those around them and make their owner even more attractive. But finding a naming option that you think is interesting is only half the battle. To make a name “play”, you need to consider several points.

1. Nationality. Nowadays in Russia, children are often given “names” that are unusual for the local culture and traditions. They are borrowed from other countries, religions, mentalities. In some cases this is justified. But in combination with ordinary Slavic patronymics and surnames, it looks strange, to put it mildly. For example, the combination “Gayane Vasilievna Kozlova” is inferior to the combination “Gayane Gasparovna Oganesyan”. This name is suitable for an Armenian girl, but not quite for a newborn Slavic girl. It is also worth considering that in interethnic marriages girls are born whose external features differ from typical Slavic features. Therefore, for mixed-race children, it is also necessary to carefully select the naming option. In Russia, the dark-skinned Masha, whose father is Arab, will always receive increased attention. But Regina or Sabira in this case will be neutral and suitable options.
2. Surname . Not all families can boast of a rich and strong surname. In such cases, the girl should not choose a name that is too unusual. Judge for yourself: the combination “Malvina Vyrvikhvost” will become a double reason for ridicule from peers. Option “Natalia Vyrvikhvost” in in this case looks neater. Of course, one can hope that Michelle Goose or Chernava Tuchka will grow up, get married and take the surnames of their other halves. But what if they decide differently? Nowadays, many people believe that changing your name negatively affects your destiny. So, women are afraid to make changes to documents. But even there is a girl who is not superstitious... What if she falls in love with a guy with the last name Flea, Devil, Grave, Slyunin or Pindyur?
3. Surname . In addition to the national factor, the principle of consonance must also be taken into account. For bulky, long middle names, it is worth choosing short names. Otherwise, those around you will break their tongues when addressing the girl. For example, the combination “Sada Ramzullovna” wins over the combination “Vuzhdeniya Ramzullovna”. The same principle applies when comparing the combinations “Vladislava Veniaminovna” and “Nina Veniaminovna”. By the way, a tandem is good, where the consonance is read in the name and patronymic. And also win options where the “names” of the daughter and father begin with the same letter: “Angelina Andreevna”, “Irina Igorevna”, “Nora Nikolaevna”.
4. Forms. What will you lovingly call your daughter? Zoechka, Mashunya, Katrusya, Lelya, Lyubasya... Any feminine address takes official and diminutive forms. But many of them can also be transformed into nicknames. Here you need to understand that children, especially schoolchildren, are cruel. They love to tease each other. So, Anfisa can turn into a Rat, Yulia - into Dulya, and Rose - into Dung.
5. Fashion. Especially young parents want to be in trend and find a fashionable name for their baby. There are even complete excesses like the Keyboard, Sarah-Paprika, Simka or Viagra. But in pursuit of originality, think about your daughter’s future. Do you have a neighbor's old lady Dazdraperma? Hardly. Because, having matured, girls, fashionably named after the Soviet May Day, were in a hurry to change this rare name. There are also only a few grandmothers of the Olympics. Yes, and few people know old women with the name Trolebuzina, named according to the principle “Trotsky-Lenin-Bukharin-Zinoviev”.

Psychologists recommend avoiding options with unexpressed gender when naming girls. “Genderless” names Evgenia, Valeria, Alexandra, Alexia can “steal” your baby’s tenderness and girlish charm, hinder her development and female self-identification. Also, you should not name your child after relatives who lived a difficult life and died in agony. And by giving a girl her mother’s name, you increase the risk of competition and misunderstanding in the family.
