HelpSasha
I'm trying to name a character and decided to look at some Russian names. Sasha is my current favorite. What do you guys think of Sasha? And (bonus!) what type of person does Sasha make you think of? Do you guys think it'd be better for Aleksandr to be the full name with Sasha as the nn, or just make Sasha the full name?
I also liked, to a lesser degree:
Dmitri - called Dima (too associated with Anastasia to me),
Kesha and Luka (doesn't sound quite right),
Sanya and Lev (too soft/short),
Nikita, Nikon, and Rodion (doesn't fit the character well)
Mikhail - called Mishka, Yasha (2nd best), and Yura (could use these)
*I should note that the story does not take place in Russia or any other country. It's a dystopian story. I merely like Russian names.
