Prisotnost imen Ciril in Metod med Slovenci 20. in 21. stoletja

Abstract

Prisotnost svetniškega imena in število njegovih nosilcev v nekem narodu je bilo v preteklosti znamenje, koliko je svetnik ʺljudskiʺ, torej priljubljen oz. koliko vernikom pomeni. Ali je danes še vedno tako? V raziskavi predstavljamo prisotnost osebnih imen svetniških slovanskih bratov Cirila in Metoda v Sloveniji od leta 1930 pa do današnjih dni, kakor tudi prisotnost njunih imen v poimenovanju ustanov. Ugotavljamo, da je bilo sredi prejšnjega stoletja v Sloveniji relativno veliko moških, ki so nosili svetnikovi imeni. Od 70 tih let dalje pa je bilo čedalje manj otrok, ki so jih starši v slovenske matične knjige dali vpisati z imeni naših dveh svetnikov. Danes je komaj za vzorec novorojencev, ki jim dajo starši ime Ciril ali Metod. Popolnoma enak rezultat imamo pri ženskih oblikah imen slovanskih apostolov. Predpostavljamo, da je tudi pri izbiri imen, ki jih starši dajo otrokom v krščanskih družinah močno prisotna sekularizacija.

Secondary title:	Presence of the names Cyril and Methodius among the Slovenes of the 20th and 21st century
Secondary abstract:	Instances of the use of the names of the saints and the number of persons bearing their names in a specific geographical locale are signs of how individual saints are venerated, and, therefore, their popularity. In this study we will trace the use of the names of the Slavic brothers Saints Cyril and Methodius in Slovenia from 1930 to the present day. In the middle of the last century in Slovenia, relatively speaking, a lot of men bore Saintsʼ names. However, in the last 70 years, evidence shows that fewer and few children have been so named by their parents; the proof can be found in the infrequency in which the names of these Slavic saints was entered into the Slovenian name registers. Today there is just a small sampling of newborns whose parents give the name of Cyril and Methodius. Exactly the same trend has been documented with the female form of the name of the Slavic apostles. We will argue that the diminution of the use of these names by parents of Christian families denotes a stronger and stronger presence of what we call secularization in contrast to traditional Catholic ways.
