ArchivesRe: meaning of these names.
in reply to a message by Caryda
Are all three of these names you're asking about Russian? "Zoya" is the Russian form of "Zoe ".
"Tishana" or "Tashana"... Could either of those two names originally have been "Tatiana "? (Another popular Russian name.)
"Geneya" or "Genia"... Possibly a short form of "Evgenia"? (Which is the Russian form of "Eugenia ".)

Tishana is the name of an Ethiopian tribe. Part of the Me'en People. I just found that out. I thought it was Russian, too

By the way, what is the meaning/origin of Caryda ?
...by the way, in Greek "caryda" means coconut.

LOL! I think it may be a fanciful spelling of "Querida" -- Spanish for "darling". I've seen the word used as a name and not only spelled literally, but also spelled as "Carida".
