Your favorite Russian names?
My husband and I are looking at Russian names for our third child, in honor of my heritage. What are some of your favorites for either gender, that you feel would still be useable for a child growing up in the states?
Off-limits names (because other family members have used them) are:
Liliya
Nadezhda
Demyan
Maxim
Natasha
Marina
Dominik
