Sanja -not a diminutive. What would it be a diminutive form of? Not sure how this was created (and I tried believe me,lol), it might be a blend of Sonja and Tanja, but it also means 'to dream' in Croatian.
Ruzica -a diminutive of Ruža (Ruza, ž= French J, Ruža means Rose in Croatian
Hrvoje -Croatian word for Croat is 'Hrvat' and the female form is Hrvojka / Hrvatka
Ruzica -a diminutive of Ruža (Ruza, ž= French J, Ruža means Rose in Croatian
Hrvoje -Croatian word for Croat is 'Hrvat' and the female form is Hrvojka / Hrvatka

Ah, thanks for that informantion. I guess I was thinking Sanja looked like it came from Suzana. I was thinking Ruzica was a form of Ruža, but I wasn't positive.
I love the look of Mirela - how is it pronounced?
We pronounce it 'mee-reh-lah'.
Oh, that's so beautiful! Definite shortlist material. Thanks.
