Help[Opinions] Re: Ilya, and some other Russian names
in reply to a message by Tippins
I love Russian nicknames, how they are just so cute. Anushka, Mashka, etc etc. My favourite Russian "name" is Petrova, I know now it's a patriarch (sp?) but in one of my favourite childhood books (Ballet Shoes) they called the little adopted girl Petrova as she was from Russia. This was obviously a cultural mistake of the author but I loved that girl who dreamt of planes but danced against her wishes to make money for the family :)
Aww tell Bayr his name is awesome and not to listen to those meanies at school :( All of their names are great but my favourite is Ilya. I agee with you how cute and boyish it is. Cute, but not girly cute.
Hmm, another love of mine right now is Nevena. It's not Russian, but Bulgarian. I get a similar vibe from it though. And Olena, which is Ukranian. Some actual Russian names you might want to think about:
Pavel "Pasha" :)
Sonya
Taras
Vikenti
