When choosing a name for a child, parents look at hundreds of directories in search of that one. They are well aware that it is chosen once for life. The name should not only harmonize with the surname and fatherland, but also be harmonious. It is unlikely that one of the parents would want his baby to be teased only because of him. But what if it starts with the letter "I"? On the one hand, it is a symbol of leadership, and on the other, it is the last letter in the alphabet. How will the fate of the child determine the names with the letter “I”?
Male names
Parents should be especially careful when choosing a name for a boy. And not because they are often teased. The fact is that this name will be borne by the children of the son as a middle name. Here, the harmony is no less important. There is something to think about. But the most common names for the letter "I" (these are Jan, Yaroslav and Janis) sound equally good. Perhaps that’s why more and more children are called that.
The name "Jan" comes from the biblical "John", which means "Grace of God." Most often, he was worn by immigrants from the west of Ukraine and Poland, but recently, more and more Russian children have become so called. For many, this name is simply associated with something bright and joyful. Often these are those who are called Yang. True, they are also characterized by some windiness.
Yaroslav is one of the rare names that the ancient Slavs gave their children . In fact, it means "glorifying Yarilu" (the god of the sun among the ancient Slavs). Many Russian names with the letter "I" are associated with it - Yaropolk, Jaromir. Usually those who bear such a name are very stubborn and unrestrained. True, much will depend on the upbringing and the environment in which the boy grew up. Yaroslav may be a support for his parents and the second half.
But the name "Janis" came from Greece and is correctly spelled with two letters "H". In fact, it comes from the same name as Jan. Most often, ethnic Greeks called their children in Russia, but the mixing of cultures led to the fact that the Russians began to bear this name. So the second letter "H" disappeared from it.
Female names
Choosing a name for a girl is easier in some ways, but harder in some ways. I want it to sound royal. Women's names with the letter “I” will help solve this difficult dilemma. Yana, Yanina and Yaroslav are suitable for both a little girl and an adult woman.
Yana and Ioannina are actually the same name. It comes from the Hebrew "given by God." But still more common is Yana. Perhaps because it is so short. Although there are other female names of 3 letters - Zoya, Eve and Leah, but they are not so common. It is worth noting that Yan is distinguished by stubbornness and selfishness. Since childhood, she requires a lot of attention to herself, especially from her father. Later, his place was taken by her husband, ready to fulfill all her whims.
But Yaroslav, on the contrary, will be distinguished by a friendly character and sociability. She can give the last shirt to her friend without hesitation. In addition, a girl from childhood will be distinguished not only by obstinacy in achieving her goals, but also by the ability to learn from her mistakes. True, many are embarrassed by some rigidity in the pronunciation of the name. But you can call the baby Yara or Yarosey.
Finally
The main thing is that parents should not forget when choosing a suitable name, that a lot depends on them. Including how their future baby will grow up. Names with the letter “I” will not necessarily make him a leader or, conversely, put him at the end of the list. Do not think that the set of letters is decisive in the fate of a person.
