I've never heard of Arkady. Zina is alright.

That would be a fun sighting for me! Gosh, they're great.

They're nice, but pretty standard Russian names.

I've always liked the sound of Arkady. Zina seems nicknamey but is cute (I prefer it to names that rhyme with it like Lina and Mina, although Tina might tie), and I like the full names for it.

These are normal in Russia and Ukraine. Zina is probably called Zinaida (maybe Zinoviya). I have met many people with these name.

Arkadiy is cool :> I wish I know more people called Arkadiy it is cool name it is rare where I live

Zina I met a lot of them! Most are Zinaida but both people called Zinoviya that I know are called Zina short :>

I hope Zina is short for Zinaida. I think that’s a great name. Arkady is good too!

Arkady is one of my favorite male names!

Zina does very little for me.
