July 17 is the day of St. Martha (translated from Aramaic as “mentor”), July 18 is St. Anna’s (translated from Aramaic as “grace”), and July 20 is the day of Evdokia (translated from Greek as “favor”).
These are real Christian names that were glorified by great women. Saint Martha is mentioned in the Gospel. This is the sister of the resurrected Lazarus and Mary, who received the Lord Himself in her home.
The second female name mentioned in the church calendar in the third week of July is Anna. This is the mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who gave the world her Son.
Evdokia, whose Memorial Day is celebrated on July 20, is a Russian Saint. For twenty years Evdokia was the Grand Duchess of Moscow, and during her reign she built many churches. When her children grew up, Evdokia went to a monastery and took the name Euphrosyne.

Name day (angel day) is the day of remembrance of the saint, whose name was given to a Christian at the sacrament of baptism. The name day (angel days) calendar will help you determine the date of the name day, as well as find out the meaning of the name and its origin.
The Orthodox and Catholic name day calendars differ greatly in the names of the saints, since after the church schism of 1054, each church canonized only its own saints. Thus, it is easy to determine which saint was canonized before the church schism - he will be represented in both the Orthodox and Catholic name day calendars.
Distinctive character traits of girls born in July
Girls born in July are very obedient children.
In addition, they are calm, reasonable, and their intuition is to be envied. Just like the June ones, they are very sociable, but often modest. Due to the fact that they are very sentimental, they are prone to sudden mood swings, so they are capable of falling into deep depression for a long time, perhaps even because of some trifle. Girls of this month are very fond of compliments, this is due to a strong desire for introspection, therefore, by praising your child once again, you give him self-confidence. Friendliness is perhaps the most important trait of these girls, but they become attached to people from whom they feel warmth and positive emotions. Being very vulnerable, they are easily able to irrevocably break off all ties with a person, without explaining the reasons, if the person does not live up to their expectations. Moreover, the reason for the breakup may be invented by them themselves. They prefer to hide their romantic nature and rarely share their experiences and emotions even with close people, and they prefer to find solutions to their problems completely alone, having carefully thought through every detail. You need to be more careful in your statements with girls this month, as when summing up they will think about and weigh every word you say. Due to the possession of such melancholic character traits, such girls should not be equated with whiners. They love cheerful companies and often shine with a good sense of humor. In the future, such girls grow up to be real homemakers; a calm and measured life for them is the main success in life. In life they are monogamous. They will never waste their time on petty affairs, as they consider stability to be the most important thing.
For girls born this month, it is better to choose names that sound tough and firm enough in order to compensate for the modesty and indecisiveness in their character.
How to choose the right name for a child according to the Saints?
The name is credited with an inexplicable and mysterious power over a person’s fate. But the Orthodox clergy does not support this point of view. Since time immemorial, in the Russian Orthodox tradition, the naming of a child was carried out with the help of Saints - calendars that contain information about the name and its patron saint.
It’s easy to navigate the Saints: you just need to carefully study the infographics.
How to choose the right name for a child according to the Saints?
In order to have a more complete understanding of all the Name Books, also study the calendars for August, September, October, November, December, January, February, March, April, May, June.

First ten days of July
Below you will find names that are suitable for girls born from July 1 to July 10.
- On the first day of the warmest summer month there are no women's names for name days, there are only birthday boys. And all the names are those that cannot be changed into a female variation.
- The second number is Mary’s name day. This is one of the most common female names in the world, because it was the name of Jesus’ mother. Meaning: “serene”, “desired”.
- The third day is Rimma and Inna’s name day. Rimma simply means “Roman”, Inna means “floating”, “stormy stream”.
- The fourth is the day of Vasilis and Anastasy. Both names are beautiful, both are found in the most beautiful and kind heroines of Russian fairy tales (Nastenka from Morozko and Vasilisa the Beautiful, the Wise). The meaning of Anastasia: “immortal”, “reborn”, “resurrection”. For Vasilisa: “ruler” or “royal”.
- On the fifth, Yuliana and Ulyana celebrate their name days. These are very sonorous names! Juliana is consonant with July, and the meaning of the name will be: “belonging to Julius”, “from the city of Julians” (the name came from Ancient Rome). Ulyana is the same as Yuliana.
- Sixth - Agrippina. The origin is Latin and translated as “born feet first.”
- There are no women's names on the seventh of July. Name days are celebrated only by men.
- Eighth - Euphrosyne, as well as Fevronia. Euphrosyne is not an ancient Russian name, as you might think, but an ancient Greek one. Meaning: “well-meaning”, “positive”, “joyful”. Fevronia is the same.
- There is no ninth female birthday girl.
- Tenth - Yana and Ivanna. Yana - the meaning of something good, new, “the door to the new” and “bright”. Ivanna means “given by God.”
