Question

СРРООООЧОО!!!!Почему Ивана2 назвали Красным??

Answer 1

"Красный" - значит "красивый". Хорош был собой Иван, значит. Его еще называли "Кротким".

Answer 2

Why Ivan II was called "Krasny" (Red)

Ivan II was called "Krasny" not because of the color red, but because "Krasny" in old Russian meant "beautiful" or "handsome." This was a common practice in medieval Russia to use the term "Krasny" to denote beauty or attractiveness, rather than the color red.

So, the name "Ivan Krasny" was a way of referring to Ivan II as "Ivan the Beautiful" or "Ivan the Handsome," highlighting his physical appearance rather than a reference to the color red.
