Linar: meaning of the name - the most unexpected versions

first version: Arabic trail

Among the thousands of names that modern parents can give to their child, there are several, the origin of which is not completely clear.One of these names - Linar.Value Name Linar has several options.Some sources indicate that the name is of Arab origin, translated it means "Light of God" or "fire".But "light" in Arabic "nur", and "fire" really "folk".Therefore, part of this version has the right to exist.But it should be noted that no list of Arabic names is the name does not occur, and famous people with the same name are not.In Western social networks as people are not registered with the same name.Although, maybe it's just a coincidence.

second version: Ancient Greece

Another version takes us to ancient Greece, or closer to our time in the territory of the countries where Greek and then Roman culture (Interception baton) had a great influence.In these countries use the name "Apollinaris", which comes from the name of the god Apollo (god of healing, prophecy, law, art, beauty and wisdom).Today, the name is out of date and in few places is used.Perhaps it is still rarely found in Spain, where it sounds like "Apolinaris."It can be assumed that the name Linar happened exactly this name, just as it once was Anton Antony and Athanasius - Athos (there is also a separate name).

third version of Rome or flower

Another version speaks in favor of the Latin (Romance) roots.In Latin the word "linarius" (a workshop for processing flax).As we can see, the sound of the word is very close to the man's name Linar.Value Name Linar thus may be associated with the production and processing of flax.Then there was also the word "linaria"."Linaria vulgaris" - the scientific name of this beautiful field of yellow flowers, which in Russian is called "common toadflax," or the people "wild flax, black guillemot, gills."Who knows, maybe, sometime, a few centuries ago, in the vast territory of the Roman Empire, someone decided to name their child that name in honor of the flower, and then Linari appeared in Russia?Things can be, the flower is really beautiful, but the therapeutic properties had almost no or little known to modern medicine.A little confused by the fact that there is no historical evidence preserved about people with the same name.Although, maybe just not one of them became famous.

latest version: USSR

And finally, the latest version of what is the name of Linar.This version of the most unexpected and least "glamorous".Perhaps Linar name - derived from "Lenar" some time fairly popular name in the Soviet Union.There was a time in the history of the USSR, when the children began to give the most ridiculous names.The fact is that before the revolution, all the inhabitants of Russia largely adhered calendar, t. E. A child named according to the day of birth.After the revolution, people felt free and you may say, "broke down the rails", including in all that concerned the selection of names for children.That was when there were birches, oaks, tungsten and Rubies, Comrades (!), Ideas (!!), Tankers and Handcars (!!!).Many names evolved from the first syllables of two or more words.For example, Reomir Rome (Revolution and Peace), Remizan (World Revolution took), Marlene / a (Marx and Lenin), and many other, no less strange dream.People with such names were, as a rule, difficult childhood, and once they reached the age of majority, it urgently changed its name.However, some of the names, the most euphonious, still accustomed.For example, Vladlen (Vladimir Lenin) and Renata (the revolution, the science, the world).The same applies to the name or Lenar Linar.The value of the name in this version - Leninist army.Just after some time "e" was replaced by "and", and kindergartens came little Linari.

In conclusion

Uneasy is the name Linar.The value of the name, perhaps, be able to find out only by specialists.Another option - to create a forum for people with the same name, their friends and relatives, and that at this forum attended necessarily the people who own Arab, Turkic, Tatar and another pair of languages.Scientists etymologists also would not prevent.A similar forum already exists on the network Vkontakte, it signed up more than 70 participants.But so far on the Arabic version (which requires checking) or our latest release - Lenar (participants of this forum, are generally not willing to accept this version), they have not moved.And again, perhaps not a coincidence that so many Linari in modern Russia - natives of Tatarstan and the Caucasus?Nor can we ignore the name Lennard, which comes from the "Leonardo" ("brave lion" in the old Germanic languages).However, contact with him will be able to determine the name Linar only specialists.
