Children born in February are naturally tough and sometimes cruel. And even babies are not without a “hardened” character. In fact, winter, leaving its positions, leaves a harsh imprint on the babies born in the last fierce winter month.
Therefore, a name for a girl in February and March should be chosen soft, affectionate, so that it can “soften” the harsh features. After all, it is thanks to the correctly chosen name for a girl born in February that parents will help emphasize the tenderness and kindness, calmness and obedience of the baby.
Children born in the year of the pig in February - character traits
What name to give to a girl born in February if the horoscope promises a slightly simple character for the baby. What parents should be careful about and protect theirs with the help of a correctly chosen name.
What are they, “February” children?
Their nature is as unpredictable as the weather this month. Outbursts of stubbornness and perseverance can quickly give way to capriciousness and isolation. But babies are able to control their nervous breakdowns, unlike their friends born at the beginning of winter.
They are absolutely not afraid of difficulties or obstacles along the way. Their courage and perseverance help them achieve their goals.
They do not need much time to make responsible decisions, which often leads to rash and reckless actions. Counting to 10 - this advice is perfect for “February” girls. They need to stop to cool down, think and only then make decisions.
Quite often they attribute failures to weaker, unlucky “friends”. They are also no strangers to rancor and even vindictiveness. Nobility and generosity should not be expected from winter children.
Their cruelty is amazing. They simply despise weaklings.
Straightforwardness and selfishness confuse parents and educators. Little revolutionaries are capable of rebellion.
When building their careers, February rebels do not shun impartial actions, gossip, and manipulation. All goals are good for these narcissistic natures.
Family is of great importance to them. They often have large marriages. And in the house there are constant gatherings of relatives and close friends.
It is worth highlighting the creative principle. If a girl born in February becomes interested in any craft, her work will be completed at the highest level. But the goal can quickly change; accordingly, today she can embroider a picture with a cross, and tomorrow she can write poetry.
Lucky names for girls born in February
When choosing a name for their child, some are guided by the church calendar, others by the combination with the surname and patronymic, and others by personal preferences. If you decide to choose a rare name, think about how your daughter will live with it in the future when she grows up. After all, someday she will become an attractive girl or a female leader.
Popular and fashionable names are another extreme. Imagine that 5-7 more Len will study together with your Alena, and Maria will simply get lost among a dozen Mashas in the yard or at the institute.
Look for a happy medium when choosing girls' names in February. But take into account the complex nature of the baby, which needs to be smoothed out and softened.
Among the beautiful winter names, consider the following options:
- Albina, that is, white-faced;
- Blessed - happy;
- Zarina, Zlata – golden;
- Safura is a twinkling star.
Such names sound tenderness, kindness and gentleness. But the winter name Snezhana is not entirely suitable for February babies. Cold, white as snow - a bad choice for the end of winter.
Once you have chosen a suitable name, try to deflect it, use affectionate and diminutive forms. Imagine how you will lull or calm your baby with that name, praise or scold.
Consider these name options for February babies:
- Anna,
- Milena,
- Zhanna,
- Alice,
- Svetlana,
- Natalia,
- Irina,
- Rita,
- Faith,
- Asya,
- Emma.
But you should not call the baby by harsh, harsh names. The names Ekaterina, Tamara, Veronica, Zinaida, Margarita will not suit her.

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.

Saints for children
Saints (Mesyatseslov) is a book containing a huge list of the names of Orthodox saints revered by the church, broken down by dates for the whole calendar year. There are 1.7 thousand names in the Saints, many of which have already fallen out of common speech and seem very unusual to modern parents.
