It is also considered how these names corresponded to the church calendar and whether the name was chosen, and in the latter case, which names were preferred. So, most of the names were chosen from the amount of 7 days before or after the birth of the child. Names that were clearly selected on the date of birth or baptism were exactly one-third of all.

Finally, the noun of extramarital children was considered, as it turned out, there were no special name-markers for them, but they used the same names as in the city as a whole.

The analysis of Ukrainian-language periodicals («Svoboda», «Chas i Podii», «Ukrainske Slovo», «NOVA Gazeta», and «Mist») attests to the fact that despite the emigration, the dispersal of cultural and intellectual forces, Ukrainian Diaspora in the United States has managed to turn the cultural factor, along with the religious one, into the force that consolidates and creates a nation.

The knowledge of the national cultural achievements is necessary not only for the elevation of national dignity of Ukrainians, but also for the present generations, when the best cultural traditions of ancestors can be used to form a national consciousness, upbringing of the coming generation, which should be conscious of its national identity. Ukrainian Diaspora in the United States has become such a monolith that unites broad masses. Due to its hard work the artificially created gaps of Ukrainian contribution to the world cultural process were closed. The material of periodicals testifies that foreign Ukrainians created such a powerful cultural stratum that it managed not only to enrich the world civilization, but also contributed to the USSR destruction and returned to the Ukrainians lost national memory.
