Andrew- a dreamer child, playing, goes into the process with his head, ignoring requests to calm down. Sincerely loves brothers, if any, but competes with sisters.

Artemy. Persistent boy, prefers to be among adults rather than among peers. He is often brought up in strictness. It grows mobile, dexterous and plastic. Sport is his element.

Bogdan often name the long-awaited son, and bring him up accordingly. Because of this, the baby often catches a cold, allows himself unlimited whims and is very attached to his mother.

It is known that the name received at birth carries a certain program and leaves an imprint on the future of a person. Each name has its own characteristics and characters. No wonder they thought that if you want to get a leader, call the child a strong name that begins with a vowel. And also attention was paid to the harmonious combination with the surname and patronymic.

The frequent sound of vowels in three common words negatively affects the person and his environment. Most often, this phenomenon has a purely psychological aspect. The more difficult it is to contact the interlocutor, the more mistakes can be made.

Saints or the church calendar, which reflects the names of all Saints revered by the Orthodox Church, began to gain popularity among the people. People began to give names to their children according to the Saints. It should be noted that there are many repeated names in the Saints, but this does not mean that the patrons on different dates are the same Saints. One name can occur 15-20 times in the Saints, but each individual date is a veneration of different Saints.


In addition, in the church calendar (Saints) there are not only native Russian names, but also there are names borrowed from other cultures. Some people mistakenly believe that the date of veneration of the Saints also changes depending on the year. Although in reality this is far from the case. Saints are called the list of church holidays, which indicate the dates of the memory of the Saints, and the dates will remain the same for the next year, and even after several years. The only difference between church calendars may be that each monastery draws up its own calendar. In modern Saints there are a lot of different names, but the names of boys predominate. Although in each month of the church calendar there are names of girls.

How to choose the names of girls according to Saints in July?

For example, in July there are no names for the 7th, 12th and 15th. What to do in this case? - choose the name of the girl according to the second method. And if the date of birth does not coincide with the date in the Saints, then a person can celebrate the last date as a name day.
