Male slavic names and their meaning
Today, most Slavic names are completely forgotten. In Russia, according to statistics, only 5% of children name Slavic names. A return to the Slavic traditions of naming is not only an appeal to the roots, but also an opportunity to improve one’s family, because the sound vibrations of a person’s name influence his character and destiny.
Male Slavic names: traditions and facts
In ancient Russia, each person had two names: false (for all) and secret (for close people). This tradition allowed to protect the child from evil spirits and unkind people. A false Slavic name was usually unattractive, but a secret name was given only in adolescence, when the main character traits of a person were formed.
Slavic names were divided into groups:
- Names from the surrounding natural world (Pike, Wolf, Eagle, Walnut, etc.)
- Names that indicate the order of birth of the child in the family (Pervusha, Vtorak, Tretyak, etc.)
- Names that signify human traits and qualities (Brave, Stoyan, etc.)
- Names of Slavic gods and goddesses (Lada, Yarilo, etc.)
- Two-base names are the most common group (Svyatoslav, Tihomir, Ratibor, Yaropolk, Vsevolod, Bogdan, Svetozar, etc.), as well as their derivatives (Dobrynya, Yarilka, Miloneg, etc.).
