The birth of a child is a great event for a family. The appearance of a boy is doubly joy, the baby will extend the family name. But the choice of a name is important because when naming a baby, believing parents choose a heavenly patron for the child, who will protect the person throughout his life. What name to choose for the boy and their name days in August? What rules should parents know when choosing a name for any child?

Choosing a name for a boy by date of birth

The main criterion for choosing a name for boys in August is the date of birth. Believing parents should refer to the Orthodox calendar and see which saint's name day falls on that day. In August, the holy calendar of a large number of saints is celebrated. In 2018, the calendar list consists of 37 male names that can become the patron saint of a summer boy.

On one date, there may be calendars of several saints at once, who are revered in the church on this day and offer prayers. If you are not satisfied with the names for the boy marked on the date of birth of the baby, you can see other names following the birthday.

Sometimes parents do not pay attention to whose name day in August is celebrated among male saints. Then the heavenly patron for the boy will be the saint whose name, according to the parents, suits the baby.

In this case, the birthday and name day in August will not coincide, but the child will have a name day according to the holy calendar and a birthday in the year. If in Orthodox calendar male names saints are presented in a list, then it is better to choose a name for the boy in honor of the patron whose saints are closer to his birthday in August.

Name definition according to the Orthodox calendar

If a decision is made to observe church canons in determining the name for a boy born in August, you need to rely on the Orthodox calendar, which includes all the saints in this month by date. On some days of August, you can choose a name for the boy from several options, but there are days when the holy calendar is not celebrated. Then you can pay attention to the day following the date of birth of the boy or later.

According to the rules for choosing a name, there are two dates, in addition to the birthday:

on the eighth day after the date of birth;
on the 40th day, when, according to the canons of the church, it is customary to baptize the baby.

When choosing a name, you need to look not only at which saint will protect the baby, but also what meaning this name has. Character traits are laid not only on a genetic basis. What the boy will be called is important - the name is often fateful. If we consider some of the names that can be given to a boy in August, the statement will be confirmed.

Nikolai - name days in August are celebrated 11 times. The most revered is St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, whose memorable day falls on 11th August.

The name of ancient Greek origin is translated as "winner of the peoples." Hard-working, purposeful, can be secretive and on his own mind. Finds mutual language with others without difficulty, is the soul of the company.

Fedor - name days are celebrated 7 times, so it can be used for a boy born on any day of August.

It means "God's gift", which is true for the inner circle of a boy and a man with that name. In relation to strangers, he is restrained, hidden, communicates little, the list of friends is small. A jack of all trades, which has a positive effect on Fedor's whole life.

Konstantin - name days in August fall on 11 number. On this day, St. Constantine of Starorussky is venerated. The name is of ancient Roman origin, meaning "solid, permanent."

When choosing a name for boys according to the Orthodox calendar, you need to know the life history of the chosen patron and convey this information to the child.

Quite often, parents call the boy, following the fashion or in memory of dear people, and do not take into account whether the angel's day in August corresponds to this name.

It is worth remembering whether it is appropriate to call the child this way, if the name has nothing to do with Orthodoxy, or the fate of the person whose name the boy was named, is it worthy of imitation, does it impose undesirable events on the child in life.

Male names according to the calendar

If you call a child according to the holy calendar in August, then the male names in the Orthodox calendar for this month are presented in sufficient quantities - these are 37 saints. Some names that were popular for boys decades ago are now rare:

Michael- translated from the biblical means "like God, an angel of mercy before God for earthly people." Name days fall on 11.17, 20, 25, 31 August.
Dmitry- a name with ancient Greek roots, translated as "belonging to Demeter (goddess of the earth)." Name days fall on 7 days of August ( 1, 14, 17, 20, 22, 25, 30 ).
Sergey- translated from Latin "high, highly esteemed." One of the brightest Orthodox personalities is Sergius of Radonezh, whose saints fall in July. In August, Sergey celebrates the day of the angel 5 times ( 2, 8, 10, 13, 25 ).
Peter- translated from ancient Greek means "stone", which corresponds to the personality of the person bearing this name. The day of the angel Peter falls not only on the dates of August, but also on the neighboring months - July, September, which makes it possible to choose a name for a boy born in the first or last days August ( 7, 9, 12, 24, 26, 30 ).
Jacob(biblical Jacob) - means "following on the heels." It is revered not only in Orthodoxy, but also in other religions - Judaism, Islam. In August, the Orthodox calendar marks 4 dates for the veneration of Jacob ( 22, 25, 26, 29 ).

Finally

Choosing a name for a boy is a serious moment in a child's life. It leaves a certain imprint on the fate, character, abilities of the individual. There is a statement “as you call a boat, so it will float.” So with the name of the child, there is no need to rush or chase fashion - the boy lives with the name.

Strong personalities are born in August, as well as charismatic leaders. August girls are surrounded by everyone's attention and love it. In childhood, crowds of boys circle around them, at a more mature age - true friends and comrades. Girls born in August really appreciate the attention of others and consider others to take care of themselves as the highest praise. The name for them should be chosen extraordinary and creative, since life path these girls may intersect with acting careers.

Euphrosyne, from the same ancient Greek language “joy, fun”.

First of all, pay attention to the surname and patronymic of the girl, because the name should come first of all to them. If you want to take a church or astrological name, then try substituting it in full name, which will be called the girl in the future.

In addition, many people name the child after a relative or respected person. In August, there are many memorable dates dedicated to great women, for example:

You can give the girl the name Ada on the first day of August, as this is the birthday of the honored film actress Ada Wojtsk. Valentina and Lydia are also suitable.
August 5 is a famous day for admirers of the art of cinema, as Vera Kholodnaya was born.
On August 11, pay attention to the name of the Saint - Clara of Assisi, also Alice, Vanga, Barbara.
August 16 - Margaret, Madonna or Louise.
On the 21st, the names of famous artists and actresses will do - Viya, Kim, Valentina.
August 27 was born Faina Ranevskaya, skier Lyubov Baranova, Natalia Sats and, no less famous, Ira Levin.

If you have a revered and respected relative, then using his name will draw the attention of the little August girl to his merits, achievements throughout his life. So you submit good example and an object for imitation in childhood, but you should not remind the child of this too often, since every person wants to feel like an individual and original person.

Very often, before the birth of a baby, parents think about a name. Sometimes, participating in this exciting activity accepted by family and friends. Everyone wants to propose a name, to prove that his version is the best. Some couples try to name their baby after celebrities or use names that were popular in antiquity. It is very important not to rush into the choice and explore all possible options.

Sometimes couples use names according to the holy calendar to give the baby protection from higher powers. Choosing a name according to the church calendar, you can do it yourself or turn to the priest for help.

Our ancestors very often did not first choose a name for the child, but only after birth, they turned to the priest and he opened the Saints and named names that coincide with the date of birth of the baby. This method of choosing a name can still be used today. For this, there are special calendars where you can choose a name for the child.

There are a large number of names in the church calendar, they are divided into: female and male. A large number of the presented names came to us from Greece, Ancient Russia, Rome. Many of them have not been used for a long time, and they gradually moved into the category of disused. But now more and more people are paying their attention to such names, because they are rare and unique, and also have a special spiritual meaning.

Of course, there are names in the calendar that have not been used for many centuries, but the church calendar is still considered the best source in the search for a name for the child, especially if the parents want to create a certain protection for good forces.

In some cases, parents do not like the names that fall on the baby's birthday. In this case, you can see other names that fall on the eighth day from the birth of the baby.

If we talk about our ancestors, then it was on the eighth day from the birth of the baby that the naming ceremony was performed. The church canon also allows the choice of a name on the 40th birthday if the previous names do not fit. After all, this day is usually considered the best for the baptism of the baby. Our ancestors have always tried to appear with a child before God on this very day.

It is worth saying that parents who have a boy have a certain advantage, because there are much more male names in the calendar than female ones. And this fully explains the fact that our ancestors very often called girls by male names, slightly modifying them. So, if a girl was born on John, then she will bear the name of John.

The name for a girl is always chosen even more carefully than for a boy. It is important for parents that the name is combined with the surname, that it has many diminutive - affectionate forms that could be suitable for the baby. At the same time, the name should carry positive energy.

Many parents are looking for a name for a girl that will be rare and pick it up so that the baby does not have many namesakes.
It is for such cases that it is good to use the church calendar, because there is always a large selection of unique names and parents will have plenty to choose from.

In recent years, more and more girls with rare names are celebrating their name days. In August, almost every day there is a special holiday dedicated to a particular name. Each of them is unique and correctly selected - parents can lay only the best qualities in the name.

A person whose name day in August is usually distinguished by a special mind, creativity. He never doubts his abilities and always confidently goes to the goal.

Even our ancestors believed that the name can have a special energy and serve as a kind of amulet and protector for a person. Observing these canons to this day, even church ministers say that evil can still be defeated using only one's own name.

Features of choosing a name for a baby

Choosing a name is a big responsibility. It is worth considering a large number of factors before naming the baby exactly as you intended. You can follow certain rules in order to make a faster and more correct choice:

The choice of a name must be done in such a way that it sounds melodious along with the surname and patronymic. Very often, parents choose complex names that are completely incompatible with the surname and bring a lot of inconvenience to the child;
You need to be very careful with fashionable names. Almost every few years, special names appear that are massively used by parents. But, fashion changes very quickly. Today a name may be popular, and in a few years it will be completely ridiculous;
If you decide to name the baby in someone's honor, then you need to be very careful. It is worth learning about a person or a famous person as much as possible. Follow the character and manner of behavior, the attitude towards others and the world. Very often a child can take over part of the fate of this person. To avoid this, it is worth choosing really positive names, and best of all - the names of saints;
When deciding on a child's name, it is worth considering religion and place of residence. Now a large number of parents call their children in a foreign manner, which absolutely does not fit into the traditions and place of residence. In this case, the child may have conflicts at school and other specific problems associated specifically with the name.

Many parents are sure that if they name a child in honor of a saint, the baby will receive positive energy. It is for this reason that it is not advised to give the child the name of the great martyr and name him in his honor.
