HelpYevgeniy / Evgeni
First of all, which spelling of this do you prefer - Yevgeniy or Evgeni? Do you like it paired with Vadim? If not, what would you pair it with? WDYTO the sibset Vladislav Yaromir, Miroslav Evzen, Milan Berislav, and Yevgeniy (or Evgeni) Vadim?
TIA!

First the sibset: Like the names, but too many 'vs' together for my taste.
I actually prefer Jevgenij:-)
But from your list Evgeni, since it looks easier for an English speaker. The name is nice, but it makes me think of a novel in verse Evgenii [or Yevgeny] Onegin (Jevgenij Onjegin in Croatian) by Alexander Pushkin, which I hated in high school when we had to read it.

Yevgeniy!
It looks a lot more Slavic and less like some cutesy name a mom made up so her daughter could be unique. I like the Y's and they make the pronunciation more obvious too. Yevgeniy Vadim is a fantastic combo. The sibset is cool, but I don't like the matchiness of the endngs on Vladislav and Miroslav

I know a guy named Evengi. I think it's pretty neat. I like your sibset too but I don't know about it being paired with Vadim...

Yevgeniy!
I also really like Yevgeniya on a girl. WAAAAAAAAAAY cooler than Eugene / Eugenia.
I do like it with Vadim, but I'll give some more suggestions:
Yevgeniy Radomir
Yevgeniy Aleksandr
Yevgeniy Nikolai
Yevgeniy Leonid
Yevgeniy Samuil
Yevgeniy Anastas
Yevgeniy Anisim -- I really like this one
Yevgeniy Kazimir
Yevgeniy Veniamin
Yevgeniy Maksim
Yevgeniy Maksimilian
Yevgeniy Radoslav
The sibset is really awesome, as far as Russian names go. I'm not a big fan of Vladislav or Berislav; there are other -slav names that I prefer. Milan feels awkward with brother Miroslav, sort of like a random adoptee in the family. I'd use Borislav Milan instead of your current combo. Go Russian/Slavic names!

I love Yevgeniy Vadim! I prefer the spelling Yevgeniy over Evgeni.
Vladislav and Miroslav are a bit too similar, but they all sound good together. I like the combos.

I prefer Yevgeniy to Evgeni. Apart from being the most accurate transliteration, the delicious "yev-" sound at the beginning is clearer. Besides, the Evgeni spelling makes it look like you are just part of the "Eve" craze (Eva, Evelyn, Evangeline, Evan etc.), especially since you're already planning on using Evzen (as a mn).
As a combination, Yevgeniy Vadim is too "v" heavy for me. I'd prefer:
Vladislav Yaromir (nn Volodya ? Vlada?)
Miroslav Evzen (nn Miro)
Milan Berislav (nn Miliy Bear?) ;-)
Yevgeniy Konstantin (nn Zhenya!)
That's a lot of slavs and mirs under one roof. :-)

It's the Russian form of Eugene
It's pronounced yev-GYEN-ee. You don't hear it too much outside of Russia
