The civil registry office in the Viluchinsk urban district has recorded the birth of the fifth child in the family of Viktor and Alexandra Oshchepkov.

The parents named their son the rare name Dobromir, according to the city administration. The large family already has four other children with unique names: Darina, Luchezar, Peresvet, and Svyatogor. "We started with heroic Slavic names like Svyatogor and Peresvet. Then we ran out of heroic names we liked, so we went with Luchezar, and now Dobromir," said Viktor Oshchepkov, the father. The mother chose the daughter’s name — she initially wanted to name her Veronika, but changed her mind and opted for the Slavic name Darina.
