[Facts] Usage of Russian nicknames, diminutives and pet forms
May I respectfully point that most diminutives (like Nadia, Lena or Liza) are rarely used as full legal names in Russia, and pet forms ending in -ka (excluding -ika) are strictly informal. Same for Dunyasha, Katyusha and Verusha. Is it possible to mention the difference in the database to avoid confusion?
There are also a lot of unmarked rare/archaic names.My PNL http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/111792
