Russian names I love.
A weakness I didn't knew I had, before I browsed the Russian name section, and noticed how many I had on my list already. Those I have put an * behind.
Girls:
Anastasia
Anouska*
Antonina
Dominika
Galina*
Natalya
Selina*
Tatiana
Valentina*
Yelena*
Zoya
Boys:
Andrei
Leonid
Sergei
Valentin*
And not to forget Nikita, a boys name, I use as a girls name.
There's more girls names, because I think they're the prettiest (sp?)

I'm not crazy about Russian boy names but I like most of the girls names, especially Galina.
I think Russian names are very pretty too. I know 2 families who adopted children from Russia. Their names are: Yulia, Elena, Viktor, Ekaterina (a favorite) and Kristina, Veronika (vair-oh-NEEka) and Anjelika (an-jel-EEka).
Anastasia- I have a friend from Kazakstan w/ this name. I didn't like it as much before I met her.
Anouska*- Very nice.
Antonina- Like this one a lot.
Dominika- Never like 'Dom' names for girls, but this one is ok.
Galina*- Love it!
Natalya- Pretty
Selina*- Very pretty
Tatiana- Nice name, but I have a bad association with it (not with a Russian though :-).
Valentina*- Very pretty
Yelena*- Very pretty.
Zoya- Ok.
Boys:
Andrei- A wonderful name and a wonderful association!
Leonid- Ok.
Sergei- Love it
Valentin*- Nice
