[Opinions] Re: Anastasia
in reply to a message by Lily8
I am an Anastasia. I live in Canada and the majority of the people I encounter pronounce it a-nə-STAY-zhə, which is cool with me. I'm Greek and we pronounce the name a-na-STAH-see-AH. I personally love the a-nə-STAS-yə and a-na-STAH-zee-ya pronunciations; when I get called by them it always makes me smile.
I go by NO nickname. A lot of people try to call me Ana but I always shut them down and they learn pretty quick. The name is usable without a nickname I'm living proof.
Other than the people in my family I have only heard of other Anastasias but never met one.
