Beautiful ancient Russian surnames. List of Slavic surnames, history of origin and meaning

Surnames in Russia appeared rather late. In ancient times, the name of the names of the Slavs had a personal name (could have several names) and the name of the kind of which a person occurs (for example, vinitars from the genius). But since the number of members of the family incredibly increased, there was a need to introduce the concept of "surname", which reflects which family of this kind a person belongs. Most of the surnames occurred from the names (the chorel or worldly name of one of the ancestors), nicknames (by the nature of the activity or some other features of the ancestor) or generic names. Much less often - from the locality names, (for example, Belozersky from the White Lake). As a rule, Russian surnames were single and passed only on the men's line.

The researchers found that the absolute majority of Russian surnames comes from Dedica, that is, the name of the grandfather (or great-grandfather), thus, fastening the hereditary name in the third (fourth) generation. It was so easier to designate families of one root, because usually in each way there were our most frequently used names. The children were called in honor of the dead grandfathers and great-grandfather, to give them the opportunity to be born again (suddenly they were not fulfilled on this earth). But call born baby The name of the living family member was not allowed to be the name, as it was believed that the keeper legs were believed (as the Greek Guardian Angels) would not be able to protect several family members at once.

The history of the origin of Russian surnames

In various social layers, the names appeared in different time. The first in the XIV-XV centuries. They appeared at Princes and Boyar. As a rule, they were given by the names of their patients of possessions: Tverskaya, Zvenigorodsky, Vyazemsky. Among these surnames, a lot of east or western (Karamzin, Lermontov, Fonvizin), due to the fact that many nobles arrived at the service to the king from foreign countries. Methods for the formation of noble surnames (the names of the ancients noble childbirth and giving birth to the nobility by the ranks after the introduction of a table of ranks) were diverse. The small group was the names of the ancient princesses that took place, as mentioned above, from the names of their princes.

A little later, the names appeared from servicing people, including those who have moved to the service tsarist Russia Cossacks. As a rule, they took place from worldly names (native Vedic, and not Christian) - Kirpa, Durmka, Stream, Sokur, Wishribut, Rigahab, Dush; generic names - Leg, Bile; And nicknames - Shcherbina, Kloche, halves, non-resident, found, winter, mustache, lezhabko.

IN mid XIX. c., Especially after the cancellation of serfdom in 1861, the names of the peasants are formed, and before that, their function was performed by nicknames and patronymic. For example, in archival documents of that time, such entries can be found: "Ivan Mikitin Son, and the nickname of Menshik", record 1568; "Ondon Mikiforov Son, and the nickname waiting", document 1590; "Mikiforov's lip Son curves cheeks, land-owner", recording of 1495; "Danilo snot, peasant", 1495; "Efimko Sparrow, Peasant", 1495.

In the XVII - the first half XVIII centuries The peasants of hereditary surnames were not at all. The peasant surname lived only in the continuation of one life. For example, Born in the family of Ivan Prokopii, and in all metric records He is called Prokoki Ivanov. When Vasily was born at the procopia, then the newborn Vasily Prokopyev became, and not Ivanov at all. And only from the mid-nineteenth century, the hereditary names of the peasants began to form:

1. From the names of the landowners. One peasants were given a complete or changed surname of their former owner, the landowner - so the whole villages of polyvanov, gagary, Vorontsov, Lvivkini appeared.
2. In the root of the names of some lay titles settlements. These are mainly the surnames ending on -tsky, -skaya. Gorodetsky, Polotsk, Uluzhsky
3. The bulk of the peasants in the document was recorded "street" nickname, which a different family could have been not one. The nickname surnames appeared much earlier in the midstamilization, which happened after the cancellation of serfdom. It was these nicknames first of all fell into the census sheets.
4. Some as a surname recorded patronymic.

The first census of 1897 showed that the surnames do not have up to 75% of the population. The whole process was very complicated and continued, often people continued to do without surnames, and some have appeared only in the 30s of the 20th century in the era of passport.

Under Peter, the first Senate decree of June 18, 1719, in connection with the introduction of the Pochumas and Recructureous Means, the earliest documents of police accounting of foreigners were officially introduced - passage of diplomas, some samples of modern passports. The roadway contained information: the name, the surname, from where he went, where the place of residence, the characteristic of his activity, information about family members, who rode with him, sometimes information about the father and parents.

By decree of January 20, 1797, Emperor Paul I commanded the general gerbank of noble childbirth, where more than 3,000 noble generic names and coat of arms were collected. But the register of the names of Russia is not limited to this number, so we must have to study the emergence of your family name to restore a single generic connection with the ancestors.

An example of studying the appearance of the name "Trush"

I considered my last name "Truši" insufficiently distributed. Starting to collect information on the history of the surname, found out that the main geography of the resettlement of representatives of my last name is Ukraine (there was even a stanita driver of the Kiev province), South of Belarus, Kuban and Volga. If so, does this mean that the Visor's Verse name, who has undergone the surname, was once very common in one of the Slavic bodies that, in the formation of the names, was settled in these territories? Where was the initial focus of the resettlement of this kind and his name, the area of \u200b\u200bits origin? And can we relying on the data historical sources, find it? Which century will have our genealogical search to us?

The book of Gorbanevsky provides 5 main ways of formation of Russian surnames:

1. Surnames formed from canonical and various folk forms christian christian names.
2. Same names that preserve the names of worldly. The worldly names came from the Vedic times of our ancestors, when there was a relatives and fellow church names. After all, Christianity did not immediately flood the minds, and even more so the souls of Slavs. Old traditions were kept long, the covenants of the ancestors were honored. Each family remembered the name of the progenitors to 7 knees and even deeper. Traditions from the history of the genus were transmitted from generation to generation. Instructive stories about the pasties of the Gods talked to the night of young people. Many of the worldly named after the names of their own (Most, waiting, love, Dush), others arose as nicknames, but then became names (fools, thistrel, no-maintenance).
3. The names formed from professional nickname ancestors telling which of them what was engaged. Hence the Goncharov, Ovsyannikov, Cheretenenikov, Bondarchuki, kovalov, etc.
4. The names formed from the locality name, from where there was one of the ancestors (the basis of such surnames became different geographical names - cities, villages, villages, rivers, lakes, etc.): Meshcheryakov, Semiluk, Novgorod, Moskvitinov, etc.
5. Interesting group russian surnames - belonged to the Orthodox clergy: Apollonov, Gilyarovsky, Trinity, Christmas.

Before the adoption of Christianity, the Slavs had names that called a person in any significant sign, external or inner, reflected his belonging to a certain family, the procedure for the emergence of new family members and attitudes towards them - Bel, Mal, Buyan, Molchan, love, Waiting, first, Tretyak, etc

The reservoir of the formation of the Families of the Tupikov made a very interesting conclusion: worldly (non-Christian) Russian names in the south-western regions of Russia could be used independently (without mentioning the name of the name during baptism). Another interesting conclusion of Tupikov: ".. in the XVII century. Russian names began to lose their meaning of personal names and began to move from the Father to the Son, i.e. began to become family nicknames ... "

From here we conclude that it is most likely to the seventeenth century "Truster" it was the name widespread in one of the Slavic clans and this conclusion is confirmed by documents.

1. Years 1490 Truch - Light (city head) Lutsk (Ukraine). Year 1563, the Truh is mentioned in Kremenz (Ukraine, not far from Lutsk). - Materials are taken from the dictionary A. Bazhenova.
2. "List from the sister and mid-school book of the city of Sviyazhsk. Dmitry Andreeva's letters of the son of Kikin with a comrades of the summer of 7076 (1567) of November ":" In the village in Burundukov with the Chuvashi and the Tatars live, in the courtyard of Mitko, in the courtyard Malayko, in the courtyard Mikhalko, in the yard Rotko shoemaker, in The courtyard of Ivanko Polonnyak, in the courtya of Belyyko Doluska Novokrechenchenchenchenchenko .. "(Volga)
3. In the registry cossack troops Zaporizhzhya from 1649 (Hetman Bogdan Khmelnitsky) are mentioned two people with the name "Truh", it's a Trux Moskal from High Zhabotinskaya and Truhshkhenko from hundreds of Veresievsky because of the Dnieper. (Ukraine) and in these all documents "Truster" recorded as a name, but already in the documents dated by the 18th century "Dryusch" is written as a surname of a person:
4. Pivovar A.V. In his work, "Settlements of the Parprovsk seats in the documents of the middle of the XVII century" lists the apiary belonging to the Trochim Troše (Ukraine).
5. When settling the Zaporozhye Cossacks of the North Caucasus, the Burovetsky Kuban arrived at the Kuban named so named Zaporizhia Ataman - Ivan Martynovich Bryukhovetsky. With the drawing of places under the heaters in the winter of 1794, Ataman Bryukhovetsky got the territory of the mouth of the River Measjok, near the so-called Great Kurgan. In the registry, Kureny, number 184, the Cossack Demko Truh is listed.

That is, we see, it is confirmed by the fact that most Russian surnames comes from Dedica, that is, the name of the grandfather (or great-grandfather), which, as we installed most likely, was the Zaporizhia Cossack. But we will move on and see where Zaporizhzhya Cossacks appeared in Ukraine. Historical documents tell us the following: Zaporizhia Cossacks are directly connected with the hero of the Kulikovsky battle by Mama. Maama had two sons. One of them - Prince Mansur Kiyi after the death of his father continued to lead the mixed detachments from Cossacks Cherkasov, Cossacks of Kiyat, and the descendants of other Slavic births, who lived in the North Caucasus and part of Chernihiv region and confessed Rodnovieri (revered their native gods). This union in history is named Sevrukov and many historians call them the great-grandparents of the Zaporizhia Cossacks. Mansur Kija was the founder of three fortresses - Glinskaya, Glinishevskaya and Poltava. The son of Mansur - Oleksa (very common cossack name, it is often mentioned in the register of the Zaporozhye troops of Khmelnitsky and the register of the Kuban troops) in 1390 was forced to be baptized in Kiev. Oleksurovich in Baptism was inflicted by Alexander. Then there was baptized and grandson of Mansura - the son of Alexa, the name Ivan. This Ivan Alexandrovich achieved himself in 1399 from the Grand Duke Lithuanian Vitovt Titula Prince Glinsky. The Grand Duke Vitovt married Prince Ivan Alexandrovich Glinsky at the Ostrog Princess Nastasya Danilovna, but their grandson Ivan Mamay is considered the founder of the Zaporizhia Snash.

But who is Mama himself? Multi-year and permanent support that Mama had in the Crimea, on Don and Kuban, applies attention. There, he has repeatedly saved after defeats in Ordane's gravestics, and from there reappeared with fresh forces. And it was not only in financial (and in 1380 - and in the military) assistance of the Genoesers, but also that Mamai gained the main, shock part of his troops. Even after huge losses in the Kulikov field, he immediately scored another army there and fought with Torkyamy, but the forces after the Kulikovsky fight were no longer the (and the age of Ataman, who had already adult grandchildren and great-grandchildren) and he again lost. Unlikely such selected military contingents at that time could only supply the Crimea, where there were no Crimean Khanate, nor crimean Tatars In the form in which they became known in the next century. Apparently main role The former population of Ruskolani played: the hordes of the Cossacks Cherkasov, the Cossacks of Kiyat, the descendants of the pre-Polovtsy and the ancestors of the North-Monthorian Russa, who noded in the strip from the northern part of the Crimea and the adjacent parts of the Tavria and the Azov region, along the left bank of the Dnieper in the thresholds area and then north to Vorskla.

For them, Mamay was not simply sent from the barn by the administrator, but also his hereditary local prince, someone from the close ancestors of which was considered almost a direct successor of the Doruddy rulers of these places (Ruscolani).

The text of the pedigree princes of Glinsky: "And the Maama Tsar the son of Mansur-Kayya, and the mansur-kiyat the prince of the prince, two sons: Alex's Prince (Oleksa is very common in the Cossack name), and the other discount prince. And after Donskago, Mamaev's Son of Mansur-Kayya, the prince drew three cities of Glyhesk, and Poldov (Poltava), and Gleynetsu (Hlinitsa). Children of Mansour-Kiyatov Little Son Skider (Skidyar) Prince, walking a herd of horses and camels and sucked in reclamation, and big son his Alex Prince, stayed on those
Holding pre-shine. "

From the next phrase above the quoted text, it can be seen that Mansur's heirs divided themselves and shared the remnants of their troops. And this division as we will see below occurred because of the faith. Some remained with Alex. Others left the south skider, since they did not want to change their native Vedic faith and were like Mamai idolaters (that is, they won the idols of their gods). In "Tale of Mamaev Bow"(Other" Zadonshchyna ") says:" Our relatives for the sins for sins, the prince from the inquisite of the country, Issue Mamai Ellin (so in our chronicles they called older or a pagan, faithful idol (that is, the worshiping idol) Gods) and iconoborets, evil Christian wharren.

Next, we also see what the gods call on Mama to help during his flight: "The godless king Mamai, seeing his loybeel, began to appeal to the God of his Perun and Raklia and Horsa." God Perun is a patron of Slavic princes, and God Horse (along with a collage) is the patron saint of the Cossacks. Horsa was always surrounded by white pieces or wolves of which at the Cossack Bath Names Hortie. Also in honor of this God, the island of Hortica is named - the main base of the Cossacks. And the fact that part of Mamaevtsev left the south scarlet, is indirectly confirmed by much later, in late XVIII century, when Suvorov captured Kuban, many Kuban Cossacks so as not to take someone else christian faith It was forced to emigrated to Turkey and among them there was a group that Muscovites called "Mamaevtsy".

In XVIII - XIX centuries in Ukrainian folk painting The characteristic plot was: depicted the Zaporizhia Cossack, sitting under the foot and playing on the Bandure. Under the picture was written poems, most often containing the characteristic of the Zaporizhia Cossack in general, often ironic, but always quite friendly. Sometimes this Zaporozhets was the only hero of the whole composition, in other cases other figures were added and entire scenes, but in all scenes they certainly attended the Cossack Bandist in his stereotypical pose. Often it was written the name of the Cossack. The names were different, but among them the cup "Kozak Mamay", and in the people, in general, all the pictures of this type were known as portraits of "Kozak Mamaia". "Kozak Mamai" is known at all throughout Ukraine, but the most common was this picture in Chernihiv, Poltava region and Kharkiv, that is, in the territory, the center of which is Poltav.

And so we see that Zaporizhzhya Cossacks moved to Ukraine from the territory of the North Caucasus. But what Slavic clan lived in ancient times in these places. This gives us the answer "Velesova Book":

"Goths that remained after the Galarech, went midnight and disappeared there, and the detours led them. After they do not know anything about them. And Berendei came to us, and the repers for us about a very great impact from the yagi, who were followed by the trail of Gunov. And so that Beloyar told them to wait, and came to them from 50,000 (warriors) unexpectedly, and Yaga smashed, which on all sides as blissful scattered ... .. After all, the husband of the Beloyar went on the other side of the RA (Volga) of the river and warned Xounty there , coming from Fryazhtsev, Yako Guna on the islands will wait for guests and get them. It was for 50 years from Aldorhah. And the ancient genus of Beloyarov was strong ... .. Beloyar Crivorogus was at that time Prince of Rushti (in the well-book of Russians, they are often called the name "Rush" -Russian, in English until now our name is written in this way, hence the name in this family T-Rush, then Russian). And white he dubbing. Where flies, go there. And he flew to the Greeks. The curlorog attacked them and broke them. Here the Greeks like foxes tail of the vertors. Given the golden fleece with a silver skate. And he retained the cryrium on the Surgezzi (the city in the Crimea) ... "

So everything fell into place, in these places, people from the ancient Slavic clan of Rush were naked, and the surname Truster says only about accessories modern descendants To this family.

Decryption of Truster named

• In the "velebook" with Slavic Priests in the first century, Russians are called the generic name "Rush". Also in the century mentioned the name "Rushav" in the South Slavs, in the twentieth century the name "Rush" in Bohemia and Moravia is mentioned, in the XIII century Rushkovichov was Prince Lithuanian. It follows that the "Truh" simply means that Russian, the descendant of Rush.
• If you read this name from the verbs or from the Slovenian lettering with the help of figurative values, we will get: t - firmly, approved by the gods, unshakable; P is the rivers, the wisdom flowing from the world of the rule we spend. That is, what got over, they said. U - UK, (Town) Connection of heaven and earthly, communication on the verge of contacts. W - latitudes of Azov, their wisdom, three channels of forces (souls, spirit, conscience), that is, the connection of a person with heaven, the divine level. From here it follows that, the truster is the one who should have a connection on the verge of contact with heaven and firmly transfer to people the wisdom received from the gods (numeric value of the name \u003d 800).
• If you read this name with the runes with the help of figurative values, we will get: t - approved by the gods of RU - an active impact of the beginning, as a destroyer and creative, leading divine powers into action, the divine forces of life.

That is, the fool is a man who should firmly and actively affect life with the help of divine forces.

Now connect everything together and get more full value Ancient generic name.

Truh is a person belonging to the Russian tribe, which is capable of: 1) establish a connection with the forces of the three worlds (Javi, Navi and Rights) on the verge of contact; 2) firmly without distortion to transmit wisdom to people received from the gods; 3) himself firmly and actively influence life with the help of divine forces (but we must not forget that all this potential opportunities that must be embodied).

Some famous representatives The surnames Tubushe managed to implement in one way or another their laid in the name of the genus feature:

• Truh Ivan Ivanovich 1869 Birth - Ukrainian painter, paintings - ("Guzulka with a child"), portraits (I.Franko), lyrical landscapes. The monument is installed in Lviv.
• Famous genealogy end XIX. century KA TERSH
• Vladimir Yakovlevich Truh (1869 -193 ...). "One of the decisive and unreasonable fighters and pioneers in the case of complete admission to the Galician Russia to the communional culture," he "was one of the first warships of the fallen, was, people's Duchet In the edge. " In 1923, the Russian School Society was founded in Lviv, the founder of which was the same V.Ya.Trush ...

This material is prepared in order to study the surnames, to encourage those living to restore the interrupted relationship with their ancient clans. Therefore, I wish everyone good luck on this path.

The name determines the fate of the person. This is the key to its inner me. After all, no accident in Russia had two names one - false, for everyone, and the other is secret, only for the person himself and his very close people. This tradition existed as protection against unkind perfumes and unkind people. Often, the first Slavic name was obviously unsurpose (Kriv, Nekras, Evil), for even greater protection from unkind. After all, without having a key to the essence of a person, causing evil is much more complicated. The ceremony of the second name was produced in adolescence, when the main character traits were formed. The name was given on the basis of these features. Slavic names were overcome by their diversity, there were groups of names:
1) names from the animal and vegetable world (Pike, Ersh, Hare, Wolf, Eagle, Walnut, Borsch)
2) names in order of birth (firsthand, spin, Tretyak)
3) the names of the gods and the goddesses (Lada, Yarilo)
4) names for human qualities (Brave, Stoyman)
5) and the main group of names - a two-axis (Svyatoslav, Choshimir, Tikhomyr, Ratibor, Yaropolk, Gostomysl, Velimm, Vsevolod, Bogdan, Dobrognev, Lyubomila, Mirolyub, Svetryar) and their derivatives (saint, Dobrynya, silence, Ratish, Putyat, Yarlka , Millug).
From the listed names, it is easy to trace the process of creating a derived name: the second part is cut off from the two-axis and suffix is \u200b\u200badded or the ending (-Heg, it is, -t,--the, -h, -yat, it is, it's).
Example: Svyatoslav: Holy + Sha \u003d saint.
Of course, the names of people carry the meaningful part of the culture and tradition of the entire people. In Russia, with the coming of Christianity, Slavic names almost completely fell into oblivion. There were lists of the Slavic names for the banned churches. Why it happened it was not difficult to guess. One part of the names (Lada, Yarilo) was names slavic govThe owners of the second part were people who, after Christanization of Russia, tried to restore the cult and traditions (Magi, Bogati). Today in Russia slavic names They only call 5% of children, which is certainly impossible and so scarce Slavic culture.
The purpose of this section is not only the introduction of truly Russian names into the people of the concept. An example is the next not rare situation: the girl was called the Gorislav. Neighbors, surprised an unusual name They say: "could not call someone in Russian Ira or Katya" - no comment.

Scientists managed to form full list Truly Russian surnames in the regions of the country: Kuban turned out to be Russian
Unfortunately, the interpretation of the family analysis, which appeared in the media by this summer (after the first publication of data in a specialized scientific journal), I could create an impression of the goals and results of the huge work of scientists, the main thing was not the fact that the name Smirnov turned out to be more common among Russian people than Ivanov, and the fact that for the first time a full list of truly Russian surnames in the country's regions was compiled. At the same time, scientists had to spend the mass of time, collecting Russian names with their own forces.

The meeting and election commissions on the ground flatly refused to cooperate with scientists, motivating this by the fact that only subject to the secrecy of voters lists they can guarantee the objectivity and honesty of elections to federal and local organs authorities. The criterion for inclusion in the list of surname was very soft: it turned on, if at least five carriers of this surname lived in the region in the region.

At first, lists were drawn up on five conventional regions - the Northern, Central, Central West, Central Eastern and South. In total, about 15 thousand Russian surnames broke through all regions, most of whom were found only in one of the regions and were absent in others. When you impose regional lists to each other, scientists have allocated only 257 so-called "community surnames".

I wonder what final stage research they decided to add to the list of southern region the names of the residents of the Krasnodar Territory, expecting the prevalence ukrainian names The descendants of the Zaporizhzhya Cossacks, Ekaterina II sent here, will significantly reduce the communional list. But this additional restriction has shrunk the list of community names in just 7 units - up to 250. From which the obvious and not for everyone has a pleasant conclusion that the Kuban is inhabited by Russian people. And where did Ukrainians have been going to and whether there were a big question.

Analysis of Russian surnames generally gives food for thinking. Even the simplest action - the search for the surnames of all the country's leaders - gave an unexpected result. Only one of them entered the list of carriers of 250 top community names - Mikhail Gorbachev (158th place). Surname Brezhnev occupies 3767th place in the overall list (found only in the Belgorod region of the South region). Surname Khrushchev - at 4248th place (found only in the Northern region, Arkhangelsk region). Chernenko ranked 4749th (only the southern region). Andropova - 8939th (only southern region). Putin took the 14250th place (only the southern region). And Yeltsin did not get into the general list at all. Surname Stalin - Jugashvili - for obvious reasons were not considered. But the pseudonym Lenin fell into regional lists under the 1421th number, lifting only the first president of the USSR Mikhail Gorbachev.
