Meaning and origin of the name: “Conqueror of Nations” (Greek)

Energy of the name and character: The energy of this name has amazing mobility; in a strange way, sociability is sometimes combined with peremptoryness, cheerfulness with severity, lightness with sufficient rigidity and tension. All this often leads to the fact that Nikolai’s character seems to be entirely created from contradictions, so difficult is it to understand him. On the other hand, this may be reflected in his versatility and breadth of views. It will almost certainly be difficult to find any area in communication with him in which he does not have his own opinion. However, there is no need to imagine Kolya as such a know-it-all, this is simply a property of any fast mind, obeying more intuition than logic. By the way, this statement is easy to verify: just find out which game he prefers - “slow” chess or “fast” checkers? Most likely, he will choose the second one.

All of the above makes Kolya a rather proud and self-willed person, in childhood he is unlikely to be diligent, and no persuasion or threats will help here; the only thing that can force him to patiently do something is his own interest. Once he becomes interested, he is capable of miracles, and therefore it is very important that Nikolai is able to find a truly worthy cause for his hobby, because he often retains his childhood interest for the rest of his life. This could be sports, collecting, or science, but it is most favorable if these hobbies subsequently find their continuation in a professional way.

Nikolai’s enthusiasm can be contagious; he often turns out to be a “ringleader” among his peers, and as an adult he can even become a good organizer. Here he can also be helped by one character trait associated with the energy of the name. The fact is that, endowed with significant pride and having a rather contradictory character, he will often encounter misunderstandings from people. At the same time, the craving for sociability is unlikely to allow him to withdraw into himself, so it is possible that Kolya will learn the art of diplomacy early, preferring not to show his true thoughts to others. An exception can only be made by close people, and even then not always. Of course, secrecy is not a great virtue, but diplomacy can still bring good results, especially in leadership roles.

Another feature of an active mind is a penchant for wit, and for Kolya, wit can serve not only to lift one’s mood, but also as a weapon. Of course, Nikolai can use all these qualities in life both for benefit and vice versa, much depends on the direction of his interests. Well, in order for his fate to be more successful, we can advise him to try to soften his pride, and level his willfulness to independence, learning to sincerely respect both his will and the will of others. Then diplomacy may turn out to be unnecessary.

Secrets of communication: If you want to find out Nikolai's real opinion on any issue, try challenging him to an argument, during which his secrecy usually evaporates without a trace. In a conversation, he can readily pick up a topic related to his hobbies, but be careful that he does not infect you with his emotions.

The name's trace in history:

Nikolay Akimov

Among the people with this name there are many extraordinary, active, with a sense of humor. A striking example Nikolai Pavlovich Akimov (1901–1968), a famous director, writer and artist, can serve this purpose. The actors who worked under his direction could not complain about boring rehearsals, and theater critics and directors, with or without reason, loved to quote “Rules of Good Taste” written by Akimov as a joke.

“If you stage boring plays,” said one of these rules, “be a human being and print crossword puzzles on the back of the programs.” Or again: “Nominating a young actress for good role, try to release the premiere before this actress retires."

Nikolai Akimov advised the critics the following: “If you filled most of the review with a retelling of the content of the play, be a gentleman and transfer your fee to its author. The fact that he presented it better, and yours worse, does not deprive him of copyright.” It is not at all surprising that since 1955, it was Nikolai Akimov who became the main director of the Leningrad Comedy Theater, managing to realize his overflowing energy and at the same time give a natural outlet to his wit - under his leadership, many elegant and ironic performances were staged, which brought the director national fame.

According to Florensky

Nikolai views himself as the center of action, with relatively little sense of other forces above and below him. He overestimates his importance in the world, and it seems to him that everything around him does not happen by itself, organically unfolding and guided by forces that have nothing to do with the implementation of human plans, but must certainly be done by some reasonable will. He is inclined to consider himself as such, a kind of small Providence, the duty and purpose of which is to take care of the reasonable welfare of all those who, in fact, or according to his exaggerated estimate, are among those under his care. And, having accumulated countless worries for himself, real and imaginary, Nikolai languishes under their burden and is painfully afraid for himself to let go of the reins of government from his hands, because he does not trust either the forces of life, or the coming of age of others, or in general the ability of those around them to go their own way. life path.

The fate of the name Nikolai

It is worth noting that his fate in relationships with women is, in general, very difficult.

Kolenka in childhood

Kolya is a very active and restless child who loves to play outdoor games. In the yard among the boys he was a real leader and entertainer. His pranks infuriate adults, but no amount of conversation or punishment can make the tomboy settle down. All adults can do is try to redirect the boy’s energy in the right direction. By enrolling their son in wrestling, football or a modeling class, parents will help him use his activity for development.


Little Kolenka is an active and energetic child

Kolenka is a smart and versatile boy, he likes to be in the center of everyone's attention. To Once again To prove his ingenuity and maintain authority among his classmates, he is ready to take risks and violate discipline.

Due to selfishness, stubbornness and willfulness, the little owner of this name is difficult to educate. In order to develop in a boy his inherent love of life and instill in Kolya the best qualities, parents should be patient.

Kolya the teenager

In his youth, Kolya was carefree, energetic, and eccentric. He is inclined to do reckless things, which is why he often gets into various troubles. This guy tries to keep up everywhere and everywhere, wanting to achieve fame and recognition of others at all costs. Nikolai does not know how to value friendship, especially since it is very difficult to be a friend of such a fickle, straightforward and selfish young man.

In my youth, Nikolai was among my friends. This guy stood out for his incredible charm, his ability to captivate people and infect them with an idea. If he suggested going somewhere or starting something, the company simply could not resist his energy and pressure. He simultaneously valued friendship and neglected it. On the one hand, he was always ready to listen, communicate, discuss problems, but on the other hand, when he got carried away, he could say a lot of nasty things and completely demotivate. Now, as far as I know, few of his many childhood friends maintain contact with Kolya. However, it is still interesting to communicate with him thanks to the versatility of this man’s character and his charisma.


In his youth, Kolya was eccentric and somewhat selfish

The character of young Nikolai combines authority and sociability, frivolity and resourcefulness. He needs affection and understanding, which he seeks when communicating with girls. Many people consider Kolya to be a closed and contradictory guy. He is practical and pragmatic, but the actions of this young man often go against the rules established by society.

How a name affects the character and fate of an adult man

Boris Khigir claims that Nikolai is strong-willed and purposeful man, inclined to work hard. He is resourceful and reasonable, constantly generating ideas for additional income. As a leader, the owner of this name is strict and even despotic; he is capable of oppressing and imposing his opinion on his subordinates. In business he is often guided by feelings, not common sense. If anything doesn't go according to plan, this man loses his composure. However, Kolya is quick-witted and able to admit his mistakes.

According to Mendelev, Nikolai is good-natured, serious and responsible. He sets high goals for himself and achieves them with perseverance and endurance. This man is always true to his convictions and principles; it is almost impossible to convince him of anything. Kolya can be harsh and rude in his judgments, as he does not forgive other people's shortcomings.


According to Mendelev, Nikolai is serious and good-natured

Dmitry and Nadezhda Zima indicate that the energy of this name is characterized by mobility. She amazingly combines sociability and peremptoryness, cheerfulness and toughness, lightness and severity. On the one hand, this gives Nikolai a contradictory character, and on the other, it results in the breadth of his views and the man’s diverse interests.

Pierre Rouget believes that Nikolai knows what he wants from life and stubbornly goes towards his goal. This man is demanding of himself and those around him. He can be modest and delicate, skillfully hiding his true feelings. Most He devotes time to work and business development; he has practically no time left for his personal life.


According to Rouge, Kolya is purposeful and persistent

According to Pavel Florensky, the owner of this name overestimates his own importance in the lives of others. Such a man considers it his mission to take care of those for whom, as Nikolai thinks, he is responsible. As a result, he takes an incredible amount of worries on his shoulders, under their weight he gets incredibly tired, but does not refuse responsibility. Kolya is not able to trust fate, life, or give other people the opportunity to act independently and “fill in” their own bumps.

Talents and hobbies

Fruitful leisure is important to Nikolai. He loves to travel, go out with friends and have picnics. At the same time, such a man values ​​comfort in any situation. She loves to throw parties and organize everything to make the holiday unforgettable.

Nikolay's career and business

Nikolai is a strong-willed and purposeful man, capable of achieving success in any field. The owner of this name works a lot, but he can hardly be called a workaholic. He will not devote more time to work, because free time prefers to take care of personal matters. If Kolya’s chosen profession appeals to him and brings him a decent income, he will develop in this area, gain experience, improve and achieve new goals.


At work, Nikolai is purposeful and responsible

Such a man can become a successful businessman. Usually he knows his business very well and is competent in any matter. But Nikolai does not like moralizing; he prefers to make all decisions alone. Therefore, the bearer of this name does not need partner support. Thanks to his discipline and prudence, Kolya is able to cope with difficulties without outside help. Often his business flourishes and brings good profits.

Health

Nikolai has a strong immune system and excellent health. But lack of proper rest can affect nervous system men. Also, the owner of this name should pay attention to nutrition and refuse bad habits. Eating unhealthy foods and alcohol can lead to liver disease.

Nikolai in love and marriage

Nikolai is very amorous. Having met a girl he likes, he will not spend years courting and studying the character of his chosen one. After just a couple of dates, a man can propose marriage. Kolya’s life partner should be attractive, flexible, resourceful and patient, because not every girl can withstand the endless scenes of her husband’s jealousy.

My father Nikolai invited my mother to marry him about a month after the start of their relationship. Their marriage came as a surprise to many of my mother’s friends, because most of them had not yet even found out that she had a boyfriend. However, the family did not last long - the parents divorced a year and a half after the wedding due to numerous scenes of the father’s jealousy and his inability to cope with his own emotions.

Nikolai is kind towards the fair sex, he is characterized by romantic courtship. Such a man has a good understanding of women, he is able to predict the desires of his chosen one. Kolya can have many hobbies, and he considers each of his ladies to be “the one, the only one.”


Kolya is an amorous romantic

The owner of this name decides to start a family at a fairly early age, believing that marriage will help him become more independent and mature. But this is not true at all. Married Nikolai cannot say goodbye to the habits of his bachelor life. He still has fun with his friends instead of spending time with his family. If the wife has the patience to forgive everything to her husband, such a marriage can last a long time.

Kolya is a caring, loving husband and father. He gets along well with children and provides for his family with dignity. But he also has personal hobbies that help a man relax and unwind. He builds stability and harmony in his relationship with his wife only if his wife fully satisfies him in an intimate way. If not, Nikolai is capable of committing treason. However, he will not tolerate such betrayal from his life partner.
