This work, using as example the telling case of the naming of the member of the Golovin noble family, describes the general principles of the selection of two secular Christian names for the same person and discusses the possibility of the interdependence of these two an- throponyms. This work demonstrates to what extent the names were determined by the date of the birth of the child, as well as notes the general role of the calendar in personal piety
of the people of the Russian Middle Ages. Particular attention is paid to the figures of namesake saints, who become the personal heavenly patrons of the named ones and the icons as- sociated with the birthday of a particular person.
