The Russian language is very rich and has many beautiful and sonorous male names. Recently, however, parents more and more often prefer to call their sons by English-speaking names.
Why are children called by foreign names?
A child born into a Russian family is sometimes given a foreign name for some reason. This behavior of parents is due to the pursuit of fashion. They probably think that the more beautiful and pretentious the baby's name is, the richer, more successful and happier he will grow up. Another reason is the reluctance of mothers to be commonplace. If twenty years ago the boys were called Alexandra, Andrei, Dmitriy, Eugene, now very often you can find such names as Matvey, Daniel, Zakhar and others. Parents want their child to have a special name, which is why they choose English-speaking ones for them.
