Boys' names by month for 2017

In addition to the most common names for boys in 2017, mothers and fathers will turn to the Orthodox tradition and name the newborn in honor of the saint. It is believed that this is how the child receives his patron. In this case, when choosing, you need to focus on your date of birth and select from the list indicated in the table:

In 2017, 127 newborns were registered, of which 71 were boys and 56 were girls. Popular male names this year were: Mikhail, Andrey, Artyom, Grigory, Miron. For women - Sofia (Sofia), Vasilisa, Alisa, Margarita.

The most common names: Mikhail, Artyom, Pavel - for boys; Maria, Daria, Ksenia - for girls. 2015 - registered - 194 newborns; boys - 111, girls - 83.

Popular male names of 2016 - Artyom, Ilya, Maxim; female - Maria, Victoria, Elizabeth.
In 2017, 156 happy family unions were registered. Based on the age estimate, we can say that most of the grooms are over 35 years of age, and the brides are between 25 and 34 years of age. The same picture was observed in 2016. In 2014 and 2015 greatest number brides and grooms were categorized as “25 to 34.”
In the past year, 15 marriages with foreign citizens were registered. The top three are still headed by Ukraine - 6 people, Azerbaijan, Moldova and Belarus - 2 people each. For comparison: in 2014 there were 21 marriages with foreign citizens. Ukraine - 9 people; Tajikistan - 3 people; Uzbekistan - 3 people. 2015 - 36 marriages with citizens of other states.

In 2015, 182 people died: men - 86 and women - 96. 2014 took away -204 people from us. 115 men and 89 women.
In the past year, the Civil Registry Office issued 11 records of acts of change of name. Of these, 9 changes were made by women and 2 by men. This is a normal, predictable situation. I would like to clarify right away that, in accordance with the civil code Russian Federation, a person’s name includes three components: proper name, patronymic and surname. Therefore, it is possible to change one, two or all components of the name. Men change their first and last names more often. Women change their last name more often. For comparison: 2014 - 17 name changes, of which 4 were men, 13 were women. 2015 - 12 name changes, men - 5, women - 7.
In 2016, 19 people registered a name change, incl. 3 men and 16 women.
Ahead - 2018. On these holidays, I want to wish everyone health, optimism, love and, of course, magic.

HAVE AN OPINION

Forward, son of Velesvet. What do I need in your name?

Column by "VM" columnist Mikhail Vinogradov

Evangelina! – a tall, stooped woman, apparently a grandmother, shouted, turning her head. - Come, sit here!

I shuddered and looked hauntedly around the subway car. I wanted to shake my head so that water would flow out of my ears, but it wasn’t there. “Maybe Eva-Angelina?” I reassured myself. When I myself was the age of this “Evangelina” in a purple ski suit, the girls around me responded to Lena, Masha, or - in the most extreme case - Nonna().

Give me a human name, mom

Column by "VM" columnist Anna Povago

There will be no more Ivanovich Dolphins and Sofia-Solnyshek Nikolaevnas in the capital: the State Duma nevertheless approved a bill banning calling children non-standard and ridiculous names. That's not all: by the second reading, the document will still be finalized, and the list of incorrect names will be expanded ().

Dadzdraperma. I mean, LOG LIVE THE FIRST OF MAY. Or, here Lachekamora- from the abbreviation of the phrase “CAMP CHELUSKINTS in the KARA SEA. How do you like this name for your daughter? Is it impressive? 🙂 Well, that certainly makes you shudder, doesn’t it?

Choosing a name for a child is a matter of special, “family” importance. Often all family members take part in this event, and often it can even lead to a scandal. 🙂 For example, a grandmother categorically disagrees with her granddaughter being called an unusual name that is foreign to her (grandmother’s) hearing. Threatens to disinherit. 🙂 And as a result, the child receives not the glamorous name Jane, but the more familiar Zhanna.

But still... If you take a less radical and extraordinary path, then how to choose a name for your beloved child? The child will live with him for many, many years!

But you want to choose a name for your child that is both sonorous, beautiful, and “not hackneyed,” right? Well, not like half the class. 🙂 Fortunately, children's names give the widest scope for imagination to any creative person.

I want to tell you today about one of these ways to come up with a beautiful, but at the same time original name for your child. Actually, everything here is actually quite simple, and I won’t reveal anything new to you. But there will be more than enough specifics! 🙂

So, a secret that is not a secret at all:

Look at the statistics: which names are most popular today and which ones are less popular. And do the opposite! :)

I mean, choose names that are at the bottom of the popularity list today. Where can I get such statistics? Yes, in the registry office, of course! Well, on “Children” too. 🙂 I will now present you with all the most important excerpts literally “on a platter”

However, the statistics from civil registry offices, nevertheless, do not seem so unusual. Over the past 5-6 years, there have been no major changes among parents when choosing a name for their child. If you believe the data of the relevant authorities, then mothers and fathers most often call their sons and daughters by the names indicated in this table.

Here are the statistics... Although... In addition to the above, other names are also very popular. Yes, from men's we can highlight: Boris, Igor, Oleg, Vasily, Svyatoslav, Vadim.

The most unusual names of last year according to statistics from Moscow registry offices

Yes yes. How could I do without the exotic? 🙂 Muscovites don’t forget about unusual names.

And strangely enough, but direct influence This process is influenced by the political situation in the world.

So, one newborn was named Syria(at that time her father was in this Middle Eastern country for work). Other exotic names over the past three years have been:

Sevastopol;
Olympics;
Byzantium;
Moon;
Alena-Flower;
Radostina;
Dolphin;
Ocean;
Mercury;
Lutobor;
Zaryanitsa;
India;
Rosiyana.

By the way... Insanity will not pass!

Such “inhuman” names for children, independently invented by parents, led to the fact that in November last year a special bill concerning names was proposed.

He must at the legislative level prohibit use in names people any symbols, numbers, punctuation marks.

Surprisingly, the authorities have realized the level of abuse on the part of parents when choosing a name for a child.

You may not believe me, but one boy was named by his parents BOCH rVF 260602

This means - B iological ABOUT object H person r ode IN Oronin- F rolovyh, born June 26, 2002 year.

Interestingly, he still cannot get documents in his name. And all because the registry office itself took up the task of protecting the interests of the child. The head of the department, Victoria Pashkova, is confident that parents should take choosing a name very seriously.

Isn't it funny? Not funny. Scary! After all, a person will have to live with such a name, if not all his life, then for quite a long time. Being in a certain society, getting used to the opinions of strangers regarding your name.

Of course, the state cannot tell a person what to name his son or daughter. But the person himself needs to understand that there are certain limits of decency, beyond which it is not recommended. At least for the sake of the future of their children. And if Lyutobor or Radostina don’t sound so ugly, then BOC rVF 260602...
