These Russian names
WDYT? Not in any specific context (like, for an English child, or something other than for a Russian kid, just as names in general). I’ve been thinking about these a lot lately:
Alexandra
Anastasia
Taisiya
Maria
Daria
Tatiana
Vera
Valentina
Sophia

I adore and would use
Alexandra
Anastasia
Sophia
I like
Maria - probably wouldn't use myself, but it's nice
Daria - I like the diminutive "Dasha" better
Vera - I like it as a nickname for Veronica
Valentina - again, probably wouldn't use it personally, but I like it
I'm meh on
Taisiya - it sounds like it could almost be a short form of Anastasia, but not quite
Tatiana - honestly I don't know why I don't like it much, because I'm usually all about -ana names

Hi !!!
I like some of these names but spelled differently: Aleksandra, Anastasiya, Vera and Tatjana.
I would love to use Anastasia in real life!
