"Ildar" is a Tatar name, the Tatars say. “This is a Kyrgyz name,” the Yenisei Kyrgyz do not agree. “No,” representatives of other nations object to them, showing old pictures with the name Ildar and portraits of I. Islamgulov, I. Zhindarev, I. Ibragimov and other celebrities, “this is our name.”
Actually, both are right. The word Ildar, composed of two parts (“il” - state, “dar” - possession) has ancient Turkic roots, therefore it is common among many peoples and has a similar meaning for all. The name is translated as "leader", "ruler", "owner of the country". This is the version that the vast majority of anthroponyms adhere to. However, there are others who see other roots, another meaning in the ancient word. The name Ildar, they believe, originates from the Greek word "ascending." It is also common in Russian, but more often it is pronounced as "Eldar", although scientists are sure that Eldar and Ildar are completely different names.
Character and destiny
Each Ildar is a real gift from heaven. In childhood, these nimble, cheerful and sociable boys are favorites of both adults and children. Sometimes the naughty tires others. He is a choleric, often unbalanced and spontaneous, but very sympathetic and kind. The boy studies averagely: he has so many interests that he simply does not have enough time to study. And he only attaches importance to what he likes. The name Ildar implies that its bearers have the ability to predict and remarkable intuition. This is what helps them learn and build a career. The young man is a little boastful, but accommodating and independent. He is vulnerable, sensitive, but tries to hide it. Adult Ildar is an excellent diplomat and an absolutely self-sufficient person.
He is unable to lead or obey. He always works for himself, but he can always come to the aid of those who need it: friendship is still of great importance to him. The name Ildar has another connotation. A man born to rule the state easily wins the hearts of ladies. Since childhood, the boy has been fond of the female sex, but he never lets girls into his heart. However, despite the huge number of close friends, the guy remains a "man in himself." He does not like to pour out his soul. The bearers of this name get married quite late: sometimes they simply don’t have time, and sometimes they are hindered by a passion for strong drinks, which captivates some Ildars for several years. However, this band passes quickly if a man sees a goal to strive for. Although late, the marriage of the Ildars is strong: they know how to combine love for the family hearth and their own independence, giving equal importance to these things. The name Ildar also means that in old age some bearers of the name will suffer from heart disease or a tendency to be overweight, so they will have to strictly monitor their diet. Young men are able to build a career in any field: an inquisitive mind, excellent intuition, innate abilities for diplomacy will help them conquer any height. The name Ildar has another feature. Unlike many "non-Russian" names, his name goes well with any surname. This means a lot to those who care about the euphony of the full name of their children.
