For those who plan to give birth to a boy in the year of the Rooster, you should review a lot of names and choose the perfect one from them. Names for boys in 2017 can be traditional (Artem, Nikolay, Alexander), exotic (Auror, Valerian, Milad) and church (Thomas, Zakhar, Matvey, Nikifor).

1. Consult with close relatives whom you trust. Perhaps they can help you make such a difficult but responsible decision.
2. Replenish your stock of church and ancient Russian names. What if, among some forgotten name, you see perfect option for your baby.
3. Match the first name to the last name and patronymic. This is especially true for foreign names, which last years are wildly popular. Agree that Jackson Nikolaevich or Michael Ivanov will sound slightly comical. In addition, do not forget that sooner or later your son will become a father and then he will have to rack his brains over a name that harmonizes with his patronymic.
4. Cross off from the list the names of close relatives who recently died not of natural causes, were often ill, or led an immoral lifestyle.

It is highly undesirable to name a child after his father. Some old-timers claim that in this way we make rivals out of these two dear people. Psychics claim that children named after their parent take only the worst traits from him.

Although the last statement can be disputed, because history knows many talented and outstanding personalities with the same name and patronymic, for example, Alexander Alexandrovich Blok.
