The makings of a leader appear in a girl at a very early age; at school this helps her in social life. Teachers trust Elina, classmates strive to communicate, but the girl tries to impose her opinion on everyone, does not know how to listen, and often acts selfishly. There are no problems with the school curriculum.

At a young age, Elina often quarrels with her mother, as she tries to subjugate the child’s character to herself. As a result, the daughter may become colder towards her mother and trust her father more. The girl grows up to be a difficult teenager who is despotic towards relatives and classmates.. She chooses her friends carefully and does not make friends with people she dislikes. If her friends don’t like her mom or dad, the girl defends them with all her might in front of her parents. It is almost impossible to convince her of anything until she herself is convinced of her mistake.


Due to disagreements with her mother, Elina often gets closer to her dad.

The girl has a complex inner world, not everyone is destined to understand her. Elina often changes her opinions and is inconsistent in her actions. But she is not lacking in determination and diligence. The girl takes all her ideas responsibly and brings any task to completion. She fulfills other people's demands reluctantly, and may, on principle, refuse to do a job she hates or do it poorly, so that this is no longer required of her. Another character flaw is excessive temperament, which appears at moments when someone tries to teach Elina. The girl also reacts aggressively to injustice and deception.


Elina has a rather complex character and a peculiar inner world.

There may be a strained relationship with your mother. She has the nature of a fighter, she tries not to depend on anyone. He is friends mainly with boys. He divides all his comrades into good and bad. A girl cannot be punished; when she grows up, she can respond in kind. To explain something to a child, you need to show your reasoning, proving that she is doing the wrong thing.


According to Boris Khigir, Elina is more friends with boys than with girls

Family and marriage

A woman has been searching for her one and only for a long time. Because of her demanding and authoritative nature, not everyone can withstand the girl’s character. She gets married only out of great love; before the wedding, she has been in a romantic relationship with her chosen one for a long time. Until a girl can completely trust her partner, there can be no talk of any marriage.


Elina is in no hurry to get married until she gets to know her partner well

I met Elina by chance,
I saw among the bustle,
And they immediately remained in my memory
girls of this trait.
Graceful as a figurine
Alive, like water in a river,
Every poet's dream
I've never seen one like this.

Table: compatibility of the name Elina with male names

Male nameCompatibility percentageNature of the relationship
Alexander56% This is a completely harmonious union. Elina is a mystery to Alexander, but the man is not used to difficulties, so he is rarely the first to decide to meet her. If a girl takes the first step, then this man will help her find spiritual stability and become more optimistic. Difficulties may arise in family life due to suspicions of spouses of infidelity and insincerity. Lovers do not show their feelings, they simply show care and mutual support. To make their relationship more vibrant and strong, they need to be in public more often.
Alexei38% This couple has little chance of building a strong relationship. Sympathy rarely arises between Alexey and Elina; the girl does not like predictable and monotonous men; she is more interested in spending time next to a dynamic and variety-loving partner. The man is also not impressed with this woman, he does not like her behavior and desire to flaunt the relationship. If Elina and Alexey turn a blind eye to each other’s shortcomings, then a romance may begin between them. But family life will not be happy; there is no care, tenderness and mutual support. Each spouse lives his own life, not paying attention to the problems and claims of the other.
Andrey23% Andrey and Elina are absolutely not suitable for each other. There are rarely any feelings between them. The young man does not like overly temperamental and emotional women, and Elina is exactly like that; he prefers calm girls. At first, a woman is attracted to a cheerful and cheerful interlocutor, but gradually she becomes bored with him and loses interest. The maximum that this couple can get is two or three dates. Getting married will not bring them happiness and joy; the spouses will face eternal scandals and depression, which will only end with divorce.
Dmitriy24% Elina and Dmitry rarely have a serious relationship. For a long time they cannot take the first step towards each other; it seems to both that the chosen one will definitely refuse. But if desire is stronger than fear and someone takes the risk of making an acquaintance, then the couple begins to communicate. But with each date, the man and woman realize that this is not the one they need, they begin to get irritated and quarrel. Each of their meetings can end in the end of the relationship. The mercantile interest of one of the partners may force them to marry, but life together will be marked by eternal scandals, disagreements and betrayals. The end result of such a marriage will be divorce.
Eugene71% These two could make a good couple. Elina is the first to be attracted to a man almost from the first meeting. Next to him, the girl becomes more cheerful and carefree, which attracts Eugene’s attention. If a young man takes the initiative into his own hands, the relationship can become serious and ultimately end in marriage. Family life may not be the happiest, since the spouse is capable of infidelity, which the woman will not forgive and will file for divorce.
Igor72% This is a friendly and loving couple. The man is immediately attracted to this gentle and easy-to-communicate girl, he is captivated by her beauty and voice. The woman also becomes interested in Igor at first sight; his self-sufficiency and independence allows her to think that he can become a protector and support in everything. Elina is inspired by this strong man, for his sake she is ready to do a lot, but she should not rush things, as this may frighten the young man. In marriage, partners exist calmly, they perceive each other as they are, and do not try to interfere with the realization of ambitions. The wife’s desire to spend time not only with her husband, but also with her friends can become a reason for quarrels.
Kirill56% Elina and Kirill can make a good couple. Both partners need a stable relationship that they can give to each other. A man loves to surprise his chosen one, make her life bright and interesting. The girl likes this attitude towards her, but she values ​​her lover little. Elina is used to being the leader in relationships and tries to limit her man’s freedom, which, of course, he doesn’t like. Family life is turbulent due to the eternal struggle for leadership. The woman does not believe that she should do household chores and tries to distribute household responsibilities equally with her husband. Harmony in this union will come only if the man gives in to his chosen one.
Michael35% These two will not be able to create a harmonious relationship. Mikhail does not like Elina's desire to dominate him. For such a domineering and selfish man, a more flexible woman is needed. But the girl is comfortable next to this young man, but her independence and eternal search for the best do not allow her to stop making a choice. The only thing that is possible between these partners is light flirting, but living together will make them completely disappointed in each other. Lovers do not feel responsible for each other and do not show care. Ultimately, everything ends in separation.
Oleg76% Oleg and Elina build a strong and serious relationship. The girl is fascinated by bright and unpredictable events, into which she also drags her chosen one. She likes riddles and mystical motives, so she often surprises her boyfriend. He, in turn, becomes interested in this girl at first sight. Often the partner here is younger than the partner, he tries to demand more from her than she can give. Because of this, their romance may never develop into a family relationship. In marriage, these people are never bored. Oleg constantly brings changes into their lives, but in order for the union to become more harmonious and strong, the husband needs to calm down and allow his chosen one to be alone at least sometimes.
Sergey71% Elina and Sergei have a pretty strong relationship. The woman is the first to pay attention to the man, shows signs of sympathy, but if he does not take the initiative, then their passion will remain at the level of flirting. However, Sergei often takes decisive steps towards the girl, so they begin an affair, which ends in marriage. But here Elina gets an unpleasant surprise: she finds out that her husband is prone to cheating. Eternal scenes of jealousy, scandals and suspicions bring partners closer to divorce.
