In Russia, the name becomes popular simultaneously with the advent of Orthodoxy (X-XIII centuries). At the same time, in Russia, from pagan times, a special attitude to the bear was preserved, so people continued to call the bear different euphemisms , for example, the epithet "quiet." One version of the origin of this euphemism is from the word “quietly,” which, according to legend, was pronounced near the bear’s den. Presumably, it was the consonance of the adjective “silent” and the Orthodox name Tikhon that served as the reason to first name both the bear itself and the figurine of this animal when gifted as a talisman of a family hearth, luck in marriage and affairs. So, in the traditional wedding ceremony of some Siberian nationalities, a gift is mentioned in the form of a bear figurine, which was called Tikhon.
In Russia, the name was common among ordinary classes ; since the 1920s it has been used mainly as a monastic . Then the term "Tikhonovism" appeared, which official Soviet propaganda called the ideology of "counter-revolutionary Orthodox clergy", that is, those who remained faithful to Patriarch Tikhon - in contrast to the recognized renovationism .
