Maigulu Kultaeva, a 42-year-old resident of the village of Jazy-Kechuu in Karakol, received her unusual name from a friend of her father's, known as "Ayash Ata."

She was born on May 1, 1983, in the village of Uch-Terek in the Toktogul district and has been working in the field of education for 20 years. Maigulu is married and raises four sons.

By profession, she is a primary school teacher. Since 2005, she has been teaching children who are just starting their journey in school. Currently, Maigulu holds the position of director and serves as the deputy director for educational and upbringing work at the secondary school named after T. Temirov.

Maigulu shared that she received her name from her godfather. "My name, which translates as May flower, is related to the fact that I was born on May 1. My godfather named me this way so that I would be like the flowers blooming at this time of year. When people first hear my name, they often express surprise and ask again. Until 2001, I had never met anyone with the same name. Once, when I came to check the results of the entrance exams to the university, I saw my last name and first name in the list for the budget group – Kultaeva Maigulu.

“In the list for the contract group, there was a girl named Abdyrahmanova Maigulu. I was very happy to learn that my name is not the only one. My mother, who was a midwife and is now retired, once assisted a friend in childbirth, and that friend named her daughter after me. Now there are two Maigulus in our village. Everyone who knows me says that I always smile and am cheerful. This is probably the best description I have ever been given. Since my name means 'May flower,' I love all flowers very much, especially roses,” added the resident.
