“
PUTIN” is a short name that means “prime minister”. It was formerly used to refer to Nicholas Romanov. The term “putin” is also used by Canadians, Americans and some Russians. Here, “PUTIN” is redirecting here.
For other uses, view Putin as a leader who stands for traditional values. In this Eastern Slavic designation, the first patronymic is Vladimirovich. The name of the family in Russian is often translated as Putin's. This spelling is retained even today, even though the spelling “Putin” does not appear on any website I could find. In Canada, there is still only a version with the spelling ” Putin.”
The name “Putin” is derived from a nickname that was given to him by his lover, Lyakh. In 1999, he renounced his citizenship of Russia and became a citizen of Norway. He served two terms as prime minister of that country. Recently, he was chosen as the TIME Magazine Man of the Year. No other candidates were suggested. The reasons for his selection are obvious – the United States does indeed consider him a world leader and he did receive the award for his achievements.
So why is this name so popular in North America? Because the name ” Putin” lends some sense of order and structure to an otherwise disordered country. Even if one thinks of the various names that have been given to him, such as Gorbachev, Karpolsky,odka,odka, Shevardnadze and others, one immediately associates those names with authority and leadership. In some ways, putting the name ” Putin” into action immediately restores order.
Putin also has a rather interesting name. His actual first name is Aleksandr. According to some Russian sources, he considered this name to be too informal. As a result, he preferred to use the full name, Alexander but this name was too common and therefore too irritating for the Western media. Therefore, he decided to use the more formal and acceptable “Alexander” rather than “Aleksandr”.
One thing that is certain about Alex is his popularity within Russia. There are several instances in which he appears on lists of the most popular Russian names. He is also second only to Sukhotai for the most used male name in Russia. In fact, almost all of the Sukhotai family's current line of leaders and celebrities are either named Alex or have their namesakes in the Russian government. It is hard to find any Western name that ranks higher. Alex and Sukhotai are almost interchangeable terms when used in conjunction with Russian speakers.
A rather curious aspect of the Alex /Sukhotai affair is that the two names are very rarely used by Russian speakers outside of Russia. In contrast, both names are common in the United States. This might be because Alex and Sukhotai are easier to pronounce. Perhaps Americans just have a more easy time learning and pronouncing them than their Russian counterparts. Even so, given the name's popularity with Russian speakers, there is every chance that Alex will become more widely used as a Western name in the future.
While it may seem odd that a former country would adopt a foreign name, many people are doing just that with Alex. Putin is extremely popular not only in Russia but in neighboring countries such as Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova. If it wasn't for Alex, it is likely that these nations would have a completely different political culture and certainly a very different language. Given the long history of Russian internationalization and its embrace of other cultures, there's no wonder why Alex has become such a popular choice.
