Anya
What do you think of Anya? I'm really surprised it isn't more common in the US. I know it is seen as dated in many non-English speaking countries (it placed pretty high in Germany in the 70s and in Russia I think it's very common as a nickname for Anna). It just seems to fit in with many trends. It's short and simple like Ella but kind of exotic like Maya and unusual like Mila. Any ideas why it isn't more common?I prefer it on its own, I think Anna nn Anya really only makes sense in Russia. Do you prefer Anya, Anja or Ania?What about Aine? Is it pronounced exactly the same? Or is Anya AHN-ya and Aine AHN-yeh? I like how she was the queen of fairies and the meaning.Also do you pronounce Anya more like AWN-ya or AHN-ya?
