Re: Russian friendly "heavenly"/sky-related names?
in reply to a message by Edu
It is not really a stereotypical name, it is also really popular in Greece and many other countries. I'd say it is common in Russia but I wouldn't automatically associate it with the country. I prefer Anastasia and I like the full name and Asya (which is not so common as a nickname) but dislike Nastya (which is super common).
Serafina or Seraphina? It is the name of a witch in "His Dark Materials" and related to angels, spelled Serafina in the book. Instead you could also use Serafima or Seraphine or Serafine.
Also:
Celeste
Celestia
Celia
Angelina
Angelica
Angelia
Estella
Estrella
Celine
Selene
Selena
Luna
You could also create a name like Evaluna or something like that. For a witch character that might be fun.

I think Angelica (or the russian verion Anzhelika) suits her quite well :) Selena, too, might work well (has the perfect length) Obsessed with Celine but i'm not sure how that'd go in russian (i've noticed that a great part of feminine names end with an -a) I like Serafina but it makes me think of my cousin's deceased pet deer (RIP)
