I like the way 'Yevgeniy' is pronounced in Russian - sounded simply beautiful and exotic. Personally, this name gives me some vibes that its bearers may have kind of reserved character.
Dope name. Shameless brought me here.
I'm not sure if I like it or not, but it is a lot better than Eugene.
A gorgeous name, but for me, I'm only familiar with it through the name of the villain of the third Metal Gear Solid game. So, if your kid hangs out with a bunch of video game enthusiasts, it may be a little odd, but other than that it's much more pleasant and masculine sounding than its english equivalent, Eugene.
As a Yevgeniy myself, I am Russian. However, I don't believe in the American translation of this name to Eugene. I personally go by Justin. Other Russian people I know go by simply Yev. Still others take names like Gary. Some Russian females with this name go by Jen or Jenny. I personally would go by Yevgeniy if I did not have to constantly tell people how to pronounce my name. If you're Yevgeniy considering an American name, you could go by Jerry. I do not recommend anyone to change their legal name because I believe you should be proud of your roots.
Famous bearer is Yevgeniy Plushenko, a Russian figure skater. He won the gold medal at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin.
