Angel days and name day in September

Parents often wonder what name to choose for their child. After all, it is believed that this can affect the future fate of the little person. Christians, in memory of the feat of the saints who endured torment and hardship for the sake of enlightening people, often name their children after the calendar. They look at the calendar to see which saint was born on this day and choose a name. It is believed that this saint will be the child's patron for life.

However, there are days in which there are few or no women's names. Or all the names are so rare and archaic that they are not commonly used in the modern world. Then the parents give the child a different name.

But at baptism, according to tradition, they are named after the saint born on this day.
