On January 18, 2026, Orthodox calendars mark the day of remembrance of Saints Athanasius and Cyril of Alexandria, defenders of the faith from heresies.
On this day, Athanasius, Volodymyr, Dmytro, Yevgeny, Kyrylo, Maxim, Mykhailo, Mykola, Oleksandr, Sergey, Maria and Oksana are celebrating their name day.
Each name carries a unique energy and history. Athanasius, from the Greek “immortal”, forms a calm character in childhood, and over the years – independence from other people’s opinions.
Volodymyr, which means “possessing peace”, makes the boy a neat student who grows up to be a charismatic leader. Dmytro, associated with the goddess Demeter, bestows practicality, although adulthood brings isolation.
Eugene (“noble”) is distinguished by good nature, turning into an ambitious actor. Kyrylo (“ruler”) overcomes childish irritability, acquiring perseverance.
Maxim (“the greatest”) – sociable in youth, proud in maturity; Michael (“who is like God”) is a just defender; Mykola (“conqueror of nations”) is a secretive thinker.
Oleksandr (“defender”) grows into the soul of the company, becoming a caring authority. Serhii (“noble”) overcomes cowardice by revealing sincerity.
Among women’s names, Maria (“beloved”) attracts with hard work, and Oksana (“hospitable”) with intelligence, despite the inner closedness.
Let us remind you that February is the last month of winter, which will bring many festive dates to Ukrainians.
Also, on January 12, 2026, Orthodox believers will honor the memory of the holy martyr Tatyana of Rome, a symbol of indomitable faith.
