How Bashkir names were given

The Bashkir name for the child was chosen by the midwife. If the elders of the clan liked it, then the newborn was called that; if he was considered unsuitable, later the baby was given a different name. Also interesting is the tradition passed down from generation to generation: naming a child with a name that is consonant with the names of the closest relatives. For example: Lilo - Zilo, Anis - Anisa, Ibrahim - Ismoil, Dim - Rome, etc. Another one is the use of the component “kinye”, which means “last child”, in the event of the birth of the last baby in the family. If another child was born after him, then he was named Altyn, which means “golden”, or Artyk – “superfluous”. In this way, the elders expressed their attitude towards the newborn.
