Help[Opinions] Russian names needed
I'm writing a story, and it centers around a family of direct Russian descent, and I was wondering if anyone knew some common Russian first names. I need 6, but any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I think Galina is Russian. I don't know if it is a popular Russian name, but it is very pretty.
