The tradition of naming a child according to the sacred calendar is again in demand – just like the fashion for old Russian names. We have carefully studied the lists for July holidays and have collected names that are particularly suitable for children born in midsummer.
Previously, children constantly bore the names of saints, whose memory is honored on the birthday of the baby. Over time, this tradition died out – but the habit of congratulating on festive days throughout the year remained among some people.
We have collected the most common, beautiful and modern names for babies “July”, and at the same time noted which days of the month they correspond to according to the church calendar.

- Alexander is the most popular modern name with a large number of name days: July 1, 6, 10, 16, 21 and 23
- Vasily – name day according to the sacred calendar on July 1, 8, 11 and 16
- Maxim – the day of the angel is celebrated on July 4
