In Russia, as in many other countries, parents sometimes choose rare and unusual names for their children. This may be due to a desire to stand out, honor the memory of ancestors, reflect cultural or religious traditions, or simply follow fashion trends. Or parents want to keep up with the times and name their children, for example, after the name of the anti-tank missile complex - Javelins (in Ukraine) or a politician - Trump.
So a family from the Russian city of Novosibirsk decided to name their son Trump in this way - in honor of the US president, writes dzen.ru.
According to the head of the family, Vladimir, in a few years this name will be rare. He noted that this decision is not necessarily a political reference, as the name has many etymologies.
“We want the child to have an unusual name“, said Vladimir.
Elena and her husband moved to Belarus two years ago. Vladimir's parents are located not far from Minsk. He works remotely as a programmer, and his wife is a florist. They had a baby in February of this year.
