March boys. Name days in March, Orthodox holidays in March

For a long time, the choice of a name for a newborn boy was taken very seriously. After all, the boy is the future successor of the family, who must have all the necessary skills and qualities to become a real man worthy of his parents. When choosing a name for a boy, you should pay attention to two forms of pronunciation - the official (full form) and diminutive. Many psychologists recommend using full name only if the child is not self-confident, weak and shy. But if the boy behaves harshly and sometimes aggressively, call him the “affectionate” form of the name in order to soften undesirable traits in character. Even on this simple example you can be sure that the choice of the name of the child is a responsible step, since it can influence the future life of the boy and instill in him any qualities and traits of character.

What is the best name for a boy born in March

Spring men are rather selfish and selfish, cautious and suspicious - they can always listen to the interlocutor, but they will do everything in their own way, preferring to learn from their own mistakes. These men can make good speakers, diplomats and politicians, and therefore it is worth giving them “strong” sonorous names.

The boys who appeared in March grow a little weak, this is due to the fact that March is the first month of spring, when nature is gaining strength before its awakening. However, parents should not worry about the fate of their child, as diligence and perseverance can make a real athlete out of a weak boy.

The most important thing is not to let the child be lazy and relax too much. This is especially important at an early age so that the boy gets used to work and responsibility.
