List of the most beautiful Russian surnames in the world

The word "surname" is translated from Latin as "family". This means that this indicates that a person belongs to the genus from which he came. The emergence of family nicknames was often associated with the profession that the clan was engaged in from generation to generation, or with the name of the area in which the family lived, or the name of the clan indicated character traits, the specifics of appearance, and a nickname. No wonder there is a saying "not in the eyebrow, but in the eye" - people have always hung labels very accurately.

In Russia, at first there was only a name and patronymic, and the first surnames appeared only in the 14th century. Naturally, they were received by noble people: princes, boyars, nobles. The peasants received official family names only at the end of the 19th century, when serfdom was abolished.

A selection of the most beautiful foreign names

Foreigners believe that a beautiful surname helps the family, brings good luck and happiness. But, it is true, a person with or a family nickname has been teased by peers since childhood, and later he grows up insecure with a whole baggage of complexes. So it turns out that the family name brought bad luck. For people with a beautiful ancestral heritage, things turn out differently. They know from childhood that they can do everything in this world, so they walk with their heads held high.

Each country has its own beautiful surnames, which are unusual for the Russian ear. But the origin of family designations is the same all over the world. Someone took the name of their city, and someone - the nickname of the founder of the clan, the occupation of the family, belonging to the status. Among foreign surnames, you can also often find the names of plants, birds, animals. If a Russian person chooses a foreign name for himself, then, as a rule, he does not delve into its meaning, but makes a choice according to euphony.

All variants of French surnames are endowed with special beauty and charm. This language is very different from other European counterparts.

The first French family names were bestowed on the upper circle of the nobility in the 11th century. And only in the 16th century, a royal decree was ordered to give every citizen of France a hereditary nickname.

Since then, French surnames have been included in the church metric from generation to generation. The most beautiful family nicknames in France come from proper names, from the occupation of the genus, or from the geographical names in which the family was born. French male surnames are widespread:

• Robert
• Richard
• Bernard
• Duran
• Lefebvre

Women's generic names are not much different from men's. French history has decreed that there are no differences and other endings, as in Russian, between surnames, therefore beautiful generic names of women also bear their proper name, for example:

• Leroy
• Bonnet
• François

German

The generic names of Germany arose in the same way as in other countries: first they got to know, then the feudal lords and small landowners, and then the lower strata of the population. The whole process of the formation of hereditary nicknames took about 8 centuries, and the first surnames appeared on the basis of proper names. Prominent examples are German male generic nicknames:

1. Werner
2. Hermann
3. Jacobi
4. Peters

Beautiful family designations in Germany originate from the names of rivers, mountains and other words associated with nature: Bern, Vogelweid. But the most popular generic names originated from the occupations of the ancestors. For example, Muller means "miller" in translation, and Schmidt means "blacksmith". Rare ones sound beautiful: Wagner, Zimmerman. Women in Germany, as a rule, leave their mother's surname, and the most beautiful are:

1. Lehmann
2. Mayer
3. Peters
4. Fisher
5. Weiss
