The ubiquity of foreign language borrowings in the Russian language affected not only vocabulary, but also etiquette (not typical to the Russian people) rules. At Pyatigorskaya Pravda we are trying to fight this, we adhere to the classical canons, since we are convinced that a high-quality newspaper with long history should be quite conservative.

If we talk about the general trend in the media, then it is necessary to note that in the second half of the 80s, our fatherland “lost” its patronymic name. That is, the means of communication (television, radio, newspapers) began to call people in the Western manner, only by first and last name: not Yuri Alekseevich Gagarin, but Yuri Gagarin, not Boris Nikolaevich Yeltsin, but Boris Yeltsin, not Mikhail Sergeevich Gorbachev, but Mikhail Gorbachev . Currently, all media use this truncated form: first name + last name. It’s strange to hear on television and radio how elderly, distinguished people are called solely by their first names. Nowadays the trinity is used more for identification purposes than as a form of respect.

The tradition of calling each other by first name and patronymic has been with Russians since time immemorial. This is a tribute to the person, part of the Russian speech etiquette. Using only a first and last name, we become like (as one of my older comrades often repeats) Ivans, who do not remember kinship. After all, with what respect in old times they addressed the famous ancient Russian hero Ilya Muromets, “Svet Ivanovich.” The patronymic has always elevated the Russian person.

The custom of being called by patronymic dates back to ancient times. According to researchers, patronymics began to appear in the 11th - XII centuries. The use of first and patronymic names in the pre-family period initially also served a practical purpose. It not only reflected respect for the memory of parents, but also acted as a legally established sign of a unique right to property, spiritual and other inheritance from the father.

The three-member naming of people - first name, patronymic, last name - is a feature of the Russian language. This formula arose in the era of Peter I, then spread to Ukraine and Belarus, and then further, to other lands of vast Russia.

The adoption of the trinity in Russia is far from accidental: at one time it even acquired sacred meaning- how the Orthodox Christian Trinity (God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit) was opposed to the Western European “two” (God the Father and God the Son).

The triune model (first name + patronymic + last name) was adopted by almost all the peoples of Russia and the USSR. Russia has always had a respectful attitude towards other peoples and their traditions: it is known, for example, that among the Balts, residents of the Caucasus and the Far North, it is not customary to use patronymics in intranational communication. The father's name is indicated only in official documents.

The two-part form (even if the name is complete), as observations show, causes another violation of etiquette: addressing the interlocutor as “you,” while calling him by his first name and patronymic pushes him to “you.” That is, in Russian etiquette everything is interconnected: one depends on the other. On the one hand, we seem to have gotten rid of excessive veneration for rank (it’s curious that some journalists often introduce themselves only by their first name, even without a last name! When you ask for a middle name, you usually hear: “It’s not customary here!” Who is it not customary? When? Why? – it’s not clear), on the other hand, we offend many people.

It may be objected that the two-part formula (first name + surname) reveals the language’s desire for compression, but is this really so? Or maybe this fact– one of the manifestations of “democratization” and vulgarization of the language, mixing Western European with Nizhny Novgorod?

The ability to communicate with other people is the key to your personal and professional success. It is this quality that allows you to arouse the interest, sympathy, trust of another person, win him over to your side, and extract some benefit from the situation.

What and how you say is of great importance in the communication process. One of magic words, which greatly influences the atmosphere and mutual perception, is the name of your interlocutor. Calling by name is not just a formal display of politeness. This word to you, like a magnet, forces you to listen carefully to your words, believe them and take them into account. When a person addresses his counterpart by name, he makes him feel the most positive emotions that arise on a subconscious level. Based on these feelings, a trusting relationship arises between people, which helps to better hear each other, understand, and come to a positive and beneficial decision.

The power of a name

The fact that every person is pleased to hear his own name has long been noticed by psychologists and is successfully used as a win-win communication technique. A person hears his own name from childhood and strongly associates his personality with it. It includes appearance, spiritual and spiritual qualities, feelings, emotions, intelligence, abilities, abilities and skills. Calling by name implies special attention to a specific person, an expression of respect, recognition of significance and individuality. Such an attitude towards a loved one, a stranger, a casual interlocutor or a business partner will definitely find a positive response.

This is why calling a person by name is so important:

1. The name evokes the most pleasant associations - with childhood, motherly love, approval, spiritual comfort, warmth;
2. Hearing your name is a confirmation of importance, attention, respect for your own personality;
3. Calling by name evokes pleasant emotions, in response to which positive attitude, sympathy, trust and respect for the interlocutor.

Calling by first name, patronymic or simply by name serves as confirmation of the importance of the interlocutor, recognition of qualities, advantages, capabilities, etc. Such a move gives him moral satisfaction and helps to sway him in your direction. After all, a person who was able to appreciate and recognize our merits and talents is himself perceived as the owner of important positive qualities and intelligence, attracts and wins over us.

How to correctly address your interlocutor by name

Whether you can call a person by name or not depends on how he introduced himself. Addressing by first name and patronymic will be appropriate when communicating with a person whom you are seeing for the first time, older in age, higher in status or position. If the interlocutor did not specify how to contact him, then you can ask about it yourself. If you are going for an interview, preparing for a meeting with business partners, new colleagues or students, or the parents of a loved one, be sure to find out and remember the names of the people with whom you will communicate. If new person addressed by name, it lays a solid foundation good relationship. In order for your interlocutor to be pleased to hear your name, you must follow the rules for using this magic word:

1. Use a person's name more often when talking to him. It is better to start any appeal by mentioning the name, this will allow you to capture the attention of your interlocutor from the first seconds;
2. Avoid excessive familiarity by using a reduced form, or calling only by name an older or unfamiliar person or boss, unless he himself has expressed such a desire;
3. Remember the names of the people around you, if necessary, write them down in a notebook, use the association method. Your natural poor memory will be perceived as a sign of disrespect, and the response is not difficult to predict;
4. Be at the appropriate level, especially business meeting. It is necessary to address the interlocutor as he introduced himself, and to adhere to the same level, taking into account the importance of the meeting, the status of the participants, and your position. Even if you junior specialist, then you should still introduce yourself not as Sasha, but as Alexander or Alexander Petrovich, depending on the age category.

Calling by name is the key to a successful relationship

Why is calling a person by name so important? Significance own name stems from the subconscious and is inextricably linked with positive self-perception. Calling by name is simple and effective way attract the attention of another person, overcome hostility and mistrust, arouse sympathy, build a productive dialogue, receive desired result. This is the key that opens the door to new opportunities, harmonious personal relationships, professional growth and success, and personal development.

A patronymic is a specially designed name of the father this person, which is part of his name, characteristic feature Russian nominal system. Through the patronymic, the connection between children and their father is expressed; a person is identified by his closest relationship.
Calling by first name and patronymic is not accepted in all countries. For example, the British, French, Germans and many other peoples easily do without patronymics. In Russia, patronymics have been accepted for a long time and are recorded in documents immediately when registering newborns. It is believed that calling someone by their first name or patronymic shows respect for the person.

Russian patronymics began to be used very early; the first mention of this dates back to 945. True, they were written differently then: for example, Gleb son of Vladimir, Vasily son of Peter, etc. However, until the 13th century, the frequency of use of patronymics was low.
Form male patronymic in modern Russian with the ending in “-vich” it goes back to the patronymics of ancient Russian princes and nobility of Muscovite Rus'; non-noble people had no right to use such patronymics.
Starting from the 15th century, naming with “-vich” was considered a special privilege; such a right was granted to ordinary people personally by the king and for special merits. Thus, in 1610, Tsar Vasily Shuisky, in gratitude for the assistance of the Stroganov merchants in annexing the Urals and Siberia to the Moscow state, ordered Maxim and Nikita Stroganov, their descendants and the descendants of Semyon (Ioannikievich) Stroganov to be written with “-vich” and granted a special title “ famous people." IN XVII century The Stroganovs were the only one merchant's name who bore this title.

Historically, patronymics were divided into several categories. The slaves did not have it at all. Just noble people received a semi-patronymic name: Pyotr Osipov Vasiliev. As for the patronymic name in -ich, it became, as it were, a sign that the person wearing it belongs to the class, aristocratic elite. Thus, -ich stood out from the patronymic, ceased to be a suffix in full and began to be used independently, turning into a special term of privilege, birth of persons or classes. -ich began to be perceived as a title, as indicating the birth of the words “de” (in French), "von" (in German), "Van" (in Dutch). In accordance with this situation, it was possible to award -vich, which is what the Russian tsars did.
Starting from the reign of Peter I, the column “Patronymic” becomes mandatory in all documents. Under Catherine II use different forms patronymic name was legally enshrined. In her “official list”, drawn up in accordance with Peter’s table of ranks, it was indicated that persons of the first five classes should be written with a patronymic in -vich, from the sixth to the eighth - called by half-patronymics, and all the rest - only by name.
However, patronymic forms in -ov/-ev in the 19th century were used only in clerical speech and in official documents. In unofficial situations, in everyday life, Russian people called each other by first names and patronymics in a form that is familiar to us now: the dignification with -ovich, -evich, -ovna, -evna, -ich, -inichna was not limited. Sometimes it was even used instead of a name (as sometimes now), when the speaker wanted to emphasize special respect for a person, to show a shade of affection, love. As before, so now people begin to be called by their patronymic only when they grow up. Young children and teenagers are called by their first name only.

Besides:
It was customary to call the ancient Russian princes not only by their father, but also by their grandfather, great-grandfather and great-great-grandfather. How ancient family, the more they were proud of him, the more significant the person was perceived by those around him.
And
Serov resident Sergei M. is now respectfully called Vero-Viktorovich. He got the authorities to add his mother's name to his middle name. Sergei became not Sergei Viktorovich, but Sergei Vero - Viktorovich. That's what it says in my passport. And in his other documents.

A person’s character depends not only on his name, but also on his patronymic. Therefore, people with the same patronymic often behave similarly in standard situations. The patronymic carries genetic information; what is inherent in nature itself is a certain genetic code passed on from generation to generation. It symbolizes a person’s belonging to a certain family and gives him an additional name - after his father.

The patronymic, as it were, corrects the existing image. It does not radically change it, but clarifies, softens or, on the contrary, sharpens some features, making them clearer.

Holders of “hard” patronymics with firm articulation have a more difficult time in life than their namesakes with softer, calmer patronymics; the character of the former is much more complex, more unyielding.

“Hard” patronymics include, for example, Nikolaevich, Igorevich, Stanislavovich; and also: Adolfovich, Vissarionovich, Vitoldovich, Anatolyevich, Voldemarovich, Rostislavovich, Emmanuilovich, Samuilovich, Lyudvigovich, Yulianovich; to soft ones - Mikhailovich, Sergeevich, Efimovich, Ilyich, Ignatievich, Vladimirovich, Petrovich, Pavlovich, Makarovich, Mironovich, Yakovlevich, Leontievich, Viktorovich, Nazarovich. When naming a child after his father, think carefully!

More softly pronounced names and patronymics belong to people who are kind, flexible, and able to easily communicate with others. These are Mikhail Ivanovich, Andrei Vladimirovich, Sergei Mikhailovich, Mikhail Sergeevich, Mikhail Mikhailovich, as well as: Vladimir Ivanovich, Sergei Vladimirovich, Pyotr Sergeevich.

A person with the patronymic name Aleksandrovich is usually impulsive, first commits an action and only then thinks about it. All Igorevichs are stubborn and tough. And the Nikolaevichs, although kind people by nature, behave like rude people. They are persistent in their actions, in extreme situations they do not spare anyone, and in some cases they are contradictory. They're hard to find common language, especially if they are drunk. The owners of all male and female patronymic names Nikolaevich, Nikolaevna are given increased emotionality and, to some extent, inconsistency.

We should also not forget that much depends on the time of birth, so different traits in people with the same patronymic will manifest themselves differently. Those born in winter are always more complex, harsh and stubborn. Conflict situations arise more often in their lives. Meanwhile, those born in summer are more gentle, kind and accommodating. When reading the characteristics of patronymics, do not forget about this, since if a person’s name carries gentleness, kindness, compliance, the opposite qualities introduced by the patronymic will be neutralized. But if the characteristic features of the name and patronymic coincide, then nothing can be done about it. Don't be discouraged if the resulting portrait doesn't look exactly as you imagined. After all, the characteristics given are not individual, and if you still have some not the most attractive features in your character, try to agree with the conclusion - that’s why we look in the mirror, to look better.
