The word "surname" is translated from Latin, how is the family". This means that this indicates that a person belongs to the genus from which he originated. The emergence of family nicknames was often associated with the profession that the clan was engaged in from generation to generation, or with the name of the area in which the family lived, or the family name indicated character traits, specific appearance, nickname. No wonder there is a saying “not in the eyebrow, but in the eye” - the people have always hung labels very accurately.

In Russia, at first there was only a first name and patronymic, and the first surnames appeared only in the 14th century. Naturally, noble people received them: princes, boyars, nobles. Peasants received official family names only at the end of the 19th century, when they canceled serfdom.

A selection of the most beautiful foreign surnames

Foreigners believe that a beautiful surname helps the family, brings good luck and happiness. But, it’s true, a person with or a family nickname has been teased by peers since childhood, and later he grows up insecure with a whole baggage of complexes. So it turns out that family name brought failure. For people with a beautiful ancestral heritage, everything is different. Boys and girls know from childhood that they can do everything in this world, so they walk with their heads held high.

Each country has its own beautiful surnames, which are unusual for the Russian ear. But the origin of family designations is the same all over the world. Someone took the name of their city, and someone took the nickname of the founder of the family, the occupation of the family, belonging to the status. Among foreign surnames also often you can find the names of plants, birds, animals. If a Russian person chooses foreign name, then, as a rule, does not delve into its meaning, but makes a choice according to euphony.

For example, modern Spaniards have beautiful surnames - not uncommon. The top guys are:

• Rodriguez
• Fernandez
• Gonzalez
• Perez
• Martinez
• Sanchez

Russian girls often choose generic names of Spanish origin:

• Alvarez
• Torres
• Romero
• Flores
• Castillo
• Garcia
• Pascual

French surnames

All variants of French surnames are endowed with special beauty and charm. This language is very different from other European counterparts. If it is always pronounced correctly, then French is pronounced differently. For example, the popular Le Pen may sound like "Le Pen", "Le Pen", "De Le Pen". First French names families were granted to the highest circle of nobility in the 11th century. And only in the 16th century, by royal decree, was it ordered to give every citizen of France a hereditary nickname.

Since french surnames from generation to generation are included in the church metrics. The most beautiful family nicknames in France came from proper names, from occupations of the family or from geographical names in which the family was born. French male family names are widespread:

• Robert
• Richard
• Bernard
• Duran
• Lefebvre

Women's generic names are not much different from men's. French history ordered that there are no differences and other endings, as in Russian, between surnames, therefore beautiful generic names of women also bear a proper name, for example:

• Leroy
• Bonn
• Francois

German

The generic names of Germany arose in the same way as in other countries: first they were received by the nobility, then by the feudal lords and small landowners, and then by the lower strata of the population. The whole process of forming hereditary nicknames took about 8 centuries, and the first surnames appeared on the basis of proper names. Vivid examples are German male generic nicknames:

1. Werner
2. Hermann
3. Jacobi
4. Peters

Beautiful family designations in Germany appeared from the names of rivers, mountains and other words associated with nature: Bern, Vogelweid. But the most popular generic names came from the occupations of their ancestors. For example, Muller in translation means "miller", and Schmidt - "blacksmith". Rare ones sound beautiful: Wagner, Zimmerman. Women in Germany, as a rule, leave their mother's surname, and the most beautiful are:

1. Lehmann
2. Mayer
3. Peters
4. Fisher
5. Weiss

Video: the most common surnames in the world

The most common surnames in the world seem beautiful, because their carriers are popular people and therefore happy. For example, there are about one hundred million people on the planet who have the family name Lee. In second place in polarity is the surname Wang (about 93 million people). In third place is family name Garcia, common in South America(about 10 million people).

Nowadays, not all ladies are in a hurry to change their surname after the wedding. Some people don't want to redo great amount documents, someone has already become known by their own last name and does not want to “start all over again” under the husband’s last name. And someone considers his maiden name more melodious. But before, getting married, the woman automatically received the surname of her husband. And it wasn't even discussed.

Where did the tradition of changing the surname come from, when you should not change your surname, and what it can change in destiny the site will tell.

The tradition of changing the surname

Many centuries ago, surnames as such did not exist, nicknames were attached to the names, as a rule, reflecting the occupation of men - Ivan the blacksmith, Vasily the hunter, Fedot the archer, etc. It also happened that some kind of nickname became handicap or a character trait - a bully, stutterer, lame, etc.

Married women and children received something similar to a surname. Initially, it sounded like this: Matryona, Fedor's wife, or in short - Matryona Fedorova. If a man was successful and famous in his field, then the prefix (surname) became his professional nickname - Akulina, the blacksmith's wife, in short - Akulina Kuznetsova. If the flaw or character trait was very striking, then the woman could turn out to be, for example, Marya Zaikina.

For sons, the prefix to the father's name became real name in two cases - if they were named after papa or they chose the same occupation.

After the surnames were fixed as an independent and no longer dependent fact, the change of a woman's surname after the wedding became, so to speak, automatic. That is, a woman who became a "husband's wife" ceased to belong to one clan and passed into another. And new surname She said that the wife is wholly owned by her husband. It sounded like this: Whose Martha? - Fedotova.

Nowadays, changing the surname is optional, it's just a tribute to tradition. Although there are still men who take a woman's refusal to change her maiden name as a personal insult. In the event that a man cannot even hear without a scandal that you will have your own last name, it’s better to strain yourself and follow the lead of your spouse, since this seemingly insignificant factor can cause constant quarrels between your husband and wife.

However, there are cases when the surname should not be changed even under the threat of a conflict.

When not to change your last name

Name change: traditions, psychology, numerology / shutterstock.com

This is where numerology comes into play. The fact is that a conflict may arise between the personality that was formed before the wedding, and the personality that will be formed under the influence of a change of surname. And it’s good if the new surname begins to balance your shortcomings, as, for example, in the case of changing the Number of the Name (the sum of numbers in the full name) from 5 to 2, that is, from the “eternal wanderer” to the “ideal partner”.

But if you are “changed” from One to Nine, it will be difficult and very uncomfortable for you to live, since you will be transformed from a leader into a person forced to serve.

Therefore, before deciding to change your surname, do not be lazy and calculate what Number you belong to from birth, and what Number you will get if you take your husband's surname.

To get started, write full name, patronymic and surname given to you at birth. Look at the table, which number corresponds to which letter:

Fold the numbers separately for the first name, then for the middle name, then for the last name. Collapse each result if necessary. prime number(from 1 to 9). For example, you get 12, so 1+2=3.

Then add up the three results and collapse again, if necessary, to a prime number. This will be your Name Number.

Do the same operation with your first name, middle name and last name, which you are going to take after the wedding.

Now look at another tablet, what character you have from birth, and who you will become if you change your last name.

If the characteristics of the Name Number that you have are radically different from the characteristics that you will receive when changing your surname, then it is better to refuse this step, otherwise you will change not only your character, but also your fate. And it can be very painful.

Moreover, this may adversely affect the relationship with your spouse, because he fell in love with you not only for beautiful eyes but also for some specific character traits. And if this changes, it is not yet known how your husband will perceive it.

And by the way, ideal option from a numerological point of view, it is considered when the Number of the Name before the change of surname coincides with the Number of the Name after its change. This suggests that you have truly chosen your person, and you have every chance to live a long and happy life with him.

However, if you want to save yourself and not offend your husband, you can consider the option with double surname. And if the numerological indicators of this option suit you more than just changing your last name, then “the sheep will be fed and the wolves will be safe.”

The psychological factor in the change of surname

We figured out numerology, but you can’t discount the psychological perception of your maiden name and the name of your future husband. It happens that a woman is madly in love with the surname received at birth, especially if this surname is harmonious, “rich”, famous.

If for one reason or another you decide to change your last name, first name or patronymic, you must contact the registry office at the place of residence or at the place of birth registration with a written application. Along with it, you need to submit a rather large list of documents. These are birth and marriage certificates, a passport, as well as a birth certificate for your minor children. In this case, it is required to pay a state duty for state registration of a change of full name in the amount of 1600 rubles and 350 rubles for the issuance of each repeated certificate after the name change.

- Guzel Faritovna, are there any restrictions in this process?
- There are no special restrictions. An application for a name change to the registry office can be applied after the age of majority or from the age of 14 with the consent of both parents. If you are under the age of 14, then you will definitely need permission from the guardianship and guardianship authority. In this case, only changes will be made to the record of the birth certificate. As such, the change is not made due to the lack of a passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation. The minor receives a new birth certificate, not a name change certificate.

- What documents will have to be changed after changing the full name?
- Passport and other personal documents must be replaced without fail: driver's license, insurance and medical certificates, TIN. Documents on education and documents confirming the right of ownership are not subject to exchange.

- Can a person have difficulties after changing his full name?
- Difficulties, of course, arise. For example, will a citizen who has changed personal data be able to confirm his identity upon retirement? Will it be possible to establish a family relationship with your parents, brothers, sisters when entering into an inheritance? It may also be difficult to establish kinship with children. When deciding to change, you need to clearly understand what is being lost. family name. The identification process will be even more difficult if a person changes his place of residence, loses one of his documents or goes abroad, where he may marry, have children, and so on.

O state registration name changes are reported by the registry office to the migration service, the military commissariat and the prosecutor's office.

- How often do citizens of Kazan completely change their data?
- The most popular cases are when women take the surname of their spouse or return their premarital surname after the dissolution of the marriage. cases complete change first names are very rare. They don't even come every year.

- What are the reasons for the complete change?
- Most often, such a question is asked when the surname, first name or patronymic are dissonant or difficult to pronounce. Sometimes, for example, one of the spouses expresses a desire to have a common surname if, when registering a marriage, he left a premarital one. There are cases when, on the contrary, they want to return the premarital surname. Less often, they are treated with the desire to bear the surname of the mother or father, stepmother or stepfather, grandfather, grandmother or other person who actually raised the applicant.

- How often do girls leave their last name when they get married?
- Life goes on, everything changes. And if in pre-perestroika times, when girls got married, in almost 100 percent of cases they took the surname of their spouse (then it was only necessary to get a new passport in a timely manner), now changing the surname entails reissuing a large number documents. In this regard, more and more brides leave their maiden name. True, there are cases when, some time after the wedding, they still apply for a change. Traditions are taking over.

According to federal law"On acts of civil status" specialists are required to consider an application for a change of full name within one month from the date of filing. In exceptional cases, the head of the registry office may extend the period for consideration of the application, but not more than two months. The applicant must be informed of this.

- What surnames do they choose for themselves - popular or rare?
- We have to deal with unusual ones no more than 4 - 5 times a year. There are times when people want to change their last name or first name, hoping that this will help change their fate. Among the interesting ones is the changed surname Happiness. I hope that the fate of the woman who took it has really changed in better side. In another case, the woman took the surname Parker in honor of her beloved actress Sarah Jessica Parker, and the man wished to have the surname Levitan, like the famous Russian artist. Most often, there are cases when the bride, entering into marriage, leaves her maiden name, and after a while asks to change it to her husband's surname.

- What are the most popular names today?
- Information about the most popular and rare names appears weekly on the website of the Kazan City Hall and on the page of the Kazan Civil Registry Office in social network. Most popular names among the boys - Arthur, Karim, Cyril, Matvey, Kamil. Among the girls - Arina, Amina, Yasmina, Victoria. Unfortunately, such beautiful names, as Elena, Tatyana, Anastasia, are gradually fading into the past. Sometimes young parents give their children very non-standard and creative names. For example, boys are called Achilles, Veles, Gyursel, Bagration, Evdokim. Among the female names there were such amazing ones as Aibulyak, Durdona, Genevieve, Manet, Osya, Rugaya.

VLADIVOSTOK, January 6, PrimaMedia. Sociologists say that people whose last name begins with the letter of the first half of the alphabet are much luckier in life, the Vzglyad newspaper writes.

The answer is simple - the self-esteem of people who open a list in a school magazine or an institute list of students helps to feel better and "advanced" among their peers. The names of the five richest people in the world - Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Larry Alison, Karl Albrecht - confirm this rule.

Further more. From school and university, young people go to later life where they are expected numerous lists: a list of speakers hired, residents in the entrance, an electoral list, and each of them is alphabetized. How much does this affect people, because you can just ignore it?

It turns out that it does: for example, English doctors found that patients whose last name begins with the letters of the last third of the alphabet are three times more likely than others to suffer from cardiovascular diseases.

It's not just about health, it's also about business. Experts from several American universities in Georgia and San Diego say that girls with bright and attractive names can count on major success in the world of show business, but the business world will be closed to them. That is, Gina or Melanie will never become specialists in prestigious clerical work, but Maria or Sarah have names that are quite suitable.

However, this approach is not unique to Americans. Vilnius resident Jonas Jonaitis has applied to the court to be compensated for the damage caused by the use of his name in government documents. In Lithuania, the combination of this name and surname is similar to the Russian "Ivan Ivanov", and 45-year-old Jonaitis is terribly tired of answering numerous questions. “When I fill out documents, they tell me that I need to write my first and last name, and not write off from the sample.

Some believe that since there is such a name, it cannot be changed, but the most resolute ones come to grips with fate and try to change their lives by changing their name. Of the inhabitants of the CIS countries, the citizens of Ukraine are especially decisive, where every year from 10 to 20 thousand people change their names, and sometimes this is due to the political situation in the country: in 2006, three men changed their surname to the surname of Yushchenko, one Yulia Tymoshenko and one Yanukovych.

Ukrainians do not bypass and historical characters- a new Darwin appeared in Crimea, Muller appeared in Kyiv. But two citizens changed their fate in the most radical way: one changed his surname from Bezbozhny to Bozhny, and the second from Nevdahi (“loser”) to Vdakha (“lucky”).

The influence of the Internet is increasingly reflected in the names of people living in real world. It all started with harmless pet names like Gigabyte (which usually spoke of their voracity), but here's another example: on September 12, 2006, a boy was born in Sweden, whom happy parents named after their favorite search engine - Google.

NOVOSIBIRSK, March 20 - RIA Novosti. Many Novosibirsk residents have "happy" surnames. the day before international day happiness, RIA Novosti correspondent Elena Zhukova asked how such surnames affect their lives.

In 2012, the UN proclaimed March 20 as the International Day of Happiness to support the idea that the pursuit of happiness is a common feeling for all people on the planet. Also, according to the founders, the holiday is intended to show that happiness is one of the main goals of mankind.

Happiness is rare

There are not so many Novosibirsk people with surnames derived from the words "happiness", "luck", "joy". According to the Civil Registry Office for the Novosibirsk Region, from 1925 to the present, 169 birth certificates for children with the following surnames have been registered in the region: Udachin (a), Successful, Successful, Successful, Happy, Happy, Happy, Radostin (a), Radostev (a) and Fortune.

Moreover, the most common of these surnames is Radostev. During this period, 58 Radostaevs were registered in the region. And the most rare surnames- Lucky, Lucky, Success.

“At work, they believe that I really bring it (luck). With such a surname, interviews are easier. As my boss says, he didn’t even have questions after reading my resume - to take or not to take. Only because of the surname it was possible," Fortuna explains.

The interviewee notes that unusual surname gives some advantages in other situations. For example, the traffic police officers become softer, studying the documents, the customs at the airport passes without delay.

“I don’t buy a lottery, I took a ticket several times, but alas. In a casino, they somehow accidentally gave me chips, threw them at random and won, but that’s all,” Fortuna said.

Schoolgirl Anastasia Udachina, in turn, says that her surname regularly helps in life and causes good mood those around.

"Once my new teacher gave me a good grade just because I have a beautiful and lucky surname! Or, when I went to buy a kitten, the seller accidentally heard my last name and gave the kitten away for free,” says Udachina.

Her namesake Yulia Udachina, who works in the field of trade, on the contrary, believes that the surname does not bring her any success.

“There was no special reaction, but they said that with such a surname you definitely bring good luck. I didn’t notice much luck. On the contrary, relatives giggle that they forgot to “not” sign to the surname, ”she smiles.

Another "lucky" Novosibirsk resident Alexander Radostev, who works in the information technologies, says that his surname adds curiosities to life.

"Funny situations happened when I walked sad or gloomy and met someone. In general, a fairly frequent super-witty argument to me," Why are you so gloomy, you're Radostev! Rejoice!". The surname helped to exchange a few words with the examiner on such an abstract topic and quickly figure out how to find mutual language", he says.

At the same time, Radostev notes that sometimes his surname is of less interest than the patronymic - Jose. According to him, his surname is his mother's, and his Spaniard father came to Russia to study at Moscow State University, then worked in Novosibirsk. They decided not to decline the patronymic, so that there would be no Khoseevich.

Happiness sound

Psychotherapist Alexander Butskikh notes that all words and phrases affect people in a certain way. There are many examples when, because of the surname, especially in childhood, complexes arise in people.

“With the surname Fortuna, Schastlivtsev, of course, there can be concessions, preferences, and a person can feel worthy. But besides the surname, there is a lot of everything, how a person will cope with his inner feelings, because there may be inconsistencies with such a surname. For example, he is a janitor works with the surname Schastlivtsev," Butskikh said.

Changing a last name to a happier one can certainly help a person feel more confident, he says, but it's too straightforward a way to boost self-esteem and doesn't always work.

"The strongest influence on a person is dissonant surnames that are associated with some kind of abusive words. As a rule, he is teased in childhood and he has to defend his surname. In this regard, the fighting qualities of such a person develop quite strongly. If he cannot do it overcome, then the surname will play against the person," explains psychotherapist Igor Lyakh.

In his opinion, such surnames as Radostev, Schastlivtsev and the like can influence a person if, along with the surname, parents put into the child the idea that he is their happiness, and then psychologically the child feels the love of his parents, and through this mechanism a person can feel happier for absolutely no reason.

"The second option for acquiring such surnames is when a person takes a pseudonym for himself, changing a previously unsound or unsuccessful surname to a euphonious and more successful one. Then this act is conscious for him. A surname can influence if a person believes in it, and this is associated with positive emotions " , - says Lyakh.
