The Orthodox Saints in autumn are rich in various names. Therefore, it is very easy to give an autumn child born in November a name from the Saints. Like any other month, November leaves its imprints on the child’s character traits. It is believed that melancholic children are born in November, prone to doubt and self-examination. Although many November boys are sociable, friendly people, ready to help at any moment. When choosing a name for a newborn boy according to the Saints of November, keep in mind that along with the name you are endowing the child with certain character traits. At the same time, a correctly chosen name can “balance” the child’s character traits that distinguish November boys.

Female names
Name days for women's names in November are based on the days of honoring the memory of certain saints. If you decide to name your child in honor of a saint, then such a day will be considered his name day or angel's day. After the child is named, as well as after his baptism, he has a bright Guardian Angel who will protect him and drive away evil spirits from him.

If you decide to choose a name for a girl or boy from the November name day according to the calendar, but it does not fall on the baby’s date of birth, then you should look a few days later. This is allowed by the church.
The same applies to name days. If the name is often found on the calendar, then you should choose the first one after the baby’s birthday. It will be the day of the angel.

The Lord is always with you!
Character traits
Men born in November look at the world soberly and are often cold-blooded towards people around them with whom they are not familiar or do not have the best relationships. They tend not to take people’s word for it and, whenever possible, check information for accuracy. Having a calm character and well-developed intellect, they are able to easily achieve their goals, not paying attention to any obstacles in their way. Boys born in November are naturally curious; they are always interested in something new, thereby developing themselves in different directions. They are quite attentive, which is why they are able to notice the mistakes of others, understand why this happened, and avoid it when achieving their successes.
Due to the fact that November men have a rather strict and serious character, simple names are more suitable for them, which will allow others to communicate with them more easily. November is associated with the sign of Scorpio, so such men have a difficult character, they have good calculation and are sometimes cunning, which makes it easier for them to achieve their goals. Their family relationships are far from the best, mainly due to the fact that even with small misunderstandings, they defend their point of view to the end, without stopping for a second and without giving the people around them the opportunity to justify themselves. In the family they love aristocracy; they like to keep everything under their control. They are not influenced by the opinion of the crowd; if they have their own point of view on any issue, they will adhere to it and, if necessary, go against the crowd. Men born in November are quite stingy, not only financially, but also personally. They do not like to waste money on other people, but they do not deny themselves anything.
