Almost every day we pronounce, read, hear and write the names of relatives, friends, acquaintances. Every citizen of Russia has his own surname. They are recorded in birth certificates, marriage certificates, passports and other documents. But not everyone will think about how his last name came about, and how long it has existed. We perceive it as something given, but very significant.

Why is a surname needed?

The very word "surname" entered our language quite late. It means "family" in Latin. The main purpose of the surname is to designate a single family name, which is called the whole family, not excluding the most distant relatives.

A bit of history

Every person who lives in Russia has a first name, patronymic and, of course, a surname. Of course, this was not always the case. First, a name appeared, then a patronymic, and only in the XIV - XV centuries did the first surnames appear. The first, of course, were the boyars and princes, then in the 16th-18th centuries they appeared among the nobles. In subsequent centuries, they were received by service people, merchants and ministers of the church. Peasants acquired surnames only by the end of the 19th century.

Origin of surnames

Most often, the surnames of the wealthy classes came from the name of the possessions. For example, Zvenigorodsky, Vyazemsky, Tver. Since the lands were inherited, respectively, they were transferred from father to son and surname.

Many people purchased them at the place of their birth and residence. For example, Arkhangelsk, Moskvin and others.

Surnames of the clergy: Zvonarev, Popov, Molitvin and others. A beautiful Russian surname appeared based on the names of churches and church holidays: Christmas, Assumption, Trinity. In the names you can hear the origins of the Russian army: Soldiers, Cadets, Captains. Very often they were given by the name of the head of the family: Ivanovs, Pavlovs, Mikhailovs. In addition, Russian surnames are a real pantry for the history of life and professions, the meaning of which we, at times, do not even know. For example, the Melnikovs, Bochkarevs, Telegins, Argunovs ("argun" - a carpenter).

Each surname is a riddle, which is sometimes difficult to solve.

Smirnov is the most common beautiful Russian surname. Why does she meet so often? Previously, there were many children in families, and the birth of a calm, obedient child is a rarity.

Another equally common surname is Ivanov. A few centuries ago, the name John covered almost all men, especially among peasants. In fairy tales, Ivan the Fool always wins. Now some owners of this surname insist on pronunciation with an emphasis on the letter "a". This gives the names a certain nobility and sonority.

The beauty of rare surnames

The history of each family is unique in its own way. Sometimes the bearers of one surname are thousands of people, and sometimes it is unusual for us to hear any surnames. Of course, there are relatively few of them, but they exist, and they have their own stories of origin. For example, very rare one-letter surnames: O, Yu and E. There are also those that consist of one syllable: An, Yong, To and Do. Rare beautiful surnames are consonant with geographical names: Moscow, Astrakhan, America and others. Some surnames were obtained by splicing two words. Some of them sound pretty funny and make you smile: Dobryden, Zacheshigriva, Khvataymukha, Shchiborsch, Nepeyvoda, Eybogin and others. Perhaps a beautiful Russian surname is one that is considered legendary. For example, Pozharsky, Grozny, Karenina and other famous ones.

2. If the surname is long, then the name should be short. And vice versa.
3. Observe the harmony of sounds for easier pronunciation (at the junction of the male name and surname there should be no combinations, as well as a large cluster of consonants).
4. Rare names do not combine with dissonant surnames (Gloria Kozlik).
5. You should not turn a child into a full namesake of famous people (Eugene Onegin, Ivan the Terrible). Often such children become the subject of ridicule.

There are also wonderful surnames that come from the names of military ranks and professions. Many will like, for example, the names of Generalov, Kuznetsov. But do not hide that in this case, some incidents may occur.
