The name carries certain vibrations that leave their mark on the fate of a person. It does not determine its share, but it can affect the quality of life. Today, many parents prefer to get acquainted with the characteristics of the name before giving it to the child. Today we will discuss rare names, modern and ancient. Of course, the list is far from complete, but it only includes really beautiful names.

To the origins of the Slavic people

Recently, parents, including stellar ones, often give their children ancient Slavic names, already forgotten by many.

In ancient times in Russia, children were given double names: one beautiful, with a secret meaning, and the second - for strangers, obviously unattractive (Krivda, Likho, etc.). Each Slavic name meant something. These interpretations have survived to this day.

With the advent of Christianity, many names were banned by the church, as they belonged to pagansdeities - Yarilo, Radogost, Lada. In 2017, the fashion for mythical characters has led to the appearance of such small citizens as Thor, Perseus, Zeus, etc.

But we will consider very rare Slavic names, female and male. Which child can choose from this list? Below are the most beautiful ones.

Slavic divine names for girls

These names were popular during pagan times:

• Lada. Often used in the abbreviation of the names Milada, Pallas, Hellas. The name of the goddess of love and beauty, meaning "dear", "wife". A girl with that name is stubborn and determined, but selfish. It is difficult to communicate with her, because inside she remains a child. Lada is deeply sensitive.
• Devana. Goddess of the hunt and daughter of Perun. Devana is proud, determined, sociable. She is the leader. Thinks critically, but knows how to enjoy life and radiates positive emotions.
• Lelya. Lada's daughter. A girl with that name grows up as a cheerful and optimistic child. As an adult, Lelya begins to think more broadly. Makes decisions only after much deliberation. Lelya is careful and constant both in personal and business terms.
