Abroad is now in fashion.

Many mothers and fathers want to name their children something unusual. In Russia, first-graders are often called Yesenia, Miya and Ariadne. Boys are given the names Mikolas, Rafael, Mark and Oscar. Residents of Europe are not far behind, they also dream of their kids standing out from the crowd.

Europeans have chosen many Russian names, including Leonid, Ruslan, Yulia. Evgenia is especially popular. In Russia, the male version is more common, but abroad they prefer to call girls this way.

In our country, this name became widely popular in the 19th century. Peasants rarely named their offspring this way, but there were many noblewomen with this name. Perhaps the fashion for Eugenia came thanks to the wife of the French Emperor Napoleon III. Eugenia de Montijo was considered one of the first beauties of Europe.
