Roman's birthday according to the church calendar
According to the calendar, the day of the angel for Roman falls on the following days of the calendar:
- January 18 and February 11, 16;
- March 2 and 29, as well as May 15;

Roman's name-day is celebrated either when the church honors the saint in whose honor the man was named, or on the day following his birthday.
If, for example, Roman's birthday is November 3, then name days are celebrated on November 13, the day of remembrance of the righteous Roman.
Origin of the name
The name Roman is of Latin origin, it comes from the word romanus, which translates as "Roman" or "Roman". Translated from Greek, Roman means "strong, strong."
The name of the flower "chamomile" is also associated with the name Roman: they are related by origin, because chamomile is derived from the word "Roman".
In other languages, there are also names similar to this name: Italian Romano, Spanish Roman, French Roman. It is also curious that the male name Roman has a female paired version of the name - Roman.
In Russia, the name became widespread after the adoption of Christianity, coming to us from Byzantium. Saint Prince Boris received this name at baptism, who, together with his brother Gleb, became the first Russian saint to be canonized by the Russian Church.
The patron saints of Roman in Orthodoxy
Every Orthodox person at baptism receives a name that bears one or more of his heavenly patrons.
The patron saints of the Romanovs are:
- Monk Martyr Roman of Karpenisia;
- Hieromartyrs Roman Lacedemovets, Roman Pariysky, Roman Kisariysky;
- Martyrs Roman Roman, Roman Samosatsky, Roman, Prince Roman Ryazansky, Roman Nicomedia;
- Roman Uglichsky, noble prince;
- Saints Roman Tarnovsky, Roman Kirzhachsky, Roman the Sladkopevets, Roman Syrian; Passion-bearer Roman (in the world - Prince Boris);
- Righteous Romance;
- New Martyrs Roman Marchenko, Roman Medved.
Good to know: if a person was baptized before 2000 (before the glorification of the new martyrs), then the new martyr who bears the name of this person is not considered his heavenly patron. The New Martyr can be considered the patron saint of a person baptized after 2000.
Information about some of the saints who bore the name Roman
The most famous and revered saints in Russia who bear this name are Roman Kisariysky, Roman the Sweet Singer and the hermit Roman Syrian.
Roman Kisariyskiy served as a deacon in the temple of Caesarea Palistina. He lived in Antioch during the Christian persecution, where he was arrested and hanged for his beliefs. Traditionally, they pray to the martyr Roman of Antioch when they are infertile and unable to have children.
Roman the Sweet Songwriter, who lived in the second half of the 5th century, was a native of the city of Emesa (Syria). At one time he was a sexton in the city of Berite, then a cleric in the Church of St. Sophia in Constantinople. Through prayers to the Most Holy Theotokos, he received the gift of singing and composing church songs, which he did not have before.
He is considered the first creator of Kodaks and the author of the famous Kodak for the feast of the Nativity of Christ. Roman the Sweet Songwriter died peacefully in 556 in the rank of deacon, having received tonsure. To this saint, believers pray, asking for help in singing and developing creative abilities, as well as protection from ill-wishers and envious people.
The hermit Roman of Syria, like the previous saint, lived in the 5th century. Lived in Antioch, near the town of Ros, where he was born. He became famous as a recluse, strictly observing fasts and wearing heavy chains until his death at a very old age.
He possessed the gift of healing many diseases, especially revered by women who suffer from infertility, because to this day, through prayers to this saint, they get the opportunity to give birth to children.
Celebrating the name day
If the day of the name day coincides with the fast, then the table should be lean, and if the Day of the Angel falls on Lent, then from weekdays it is postponed to one of the days off.
If you want to present a birthday boy with a gift, then it would be appropriate to present an icon of a saint, for example, Roman - the saint whom he honors on this day, spiritual literature - the life of a saint or a prayer book, with a prayer to Saint Roman, candles or a vessel for holy water.
Seek help from your saints, asking them for intercession, and honor them not only on the name day.
