I prefer Svyatoslav. I like Svyatoslav Alexei sounds pretty good. I do think it goes well with Vladimir Ilya.I wish I could tell you, but I'm not sure how Berislav would be pronounced. I do like Vasiliy though.

BerislavI've heard it pronounced like it looks - the first two syllables sound like the word "berry" with more of a short I sound at the end, and then the last syllable is just "slav". But I don't know how to say it with a Serbian accent, so this is the closest I can come.

I think it would sound good. Vasiliy Berislav, that is.

Quite possibly one of the sexiest names ever.But then again, I have a thing for Russian names. And Russian men.I prefer Svyatoslav. In fact, I'm going to go add it to my PNL right now. It's outstanding. Svyatoslav Alexei is fabulous and goes wonderfully with Vladimir Ilya.Vasiliy Berislav is rather adorable!

AgreeIf you can manage to pronounce it. I had to say it to myself to realize its awesomeness, because that spelling looks kind of awkward--almost like mischievous three-year-old put her hands on keyboard. But yeah, verbally it has some serious appeal.

All these -slav and -mir names are just very dated and considered too uncool to be used now in Croatia. They're like Bill or Dick to English speakers. However I do like to see them used, especially by a non-Slavic speaker.My favorite spelling is Svatoslav, that extra letter just jabs at my eyes. Svatoslav Alexei is wonderful!
Vladimir Ilya -I like both names, but they just don't go well together, imo. There are just too many 'i' in the combo.
Vasiliy Berislav -I love it!How about these:Svatoslav Ognjen
Svatoslav DmitarVasiliy Branimir
Vasiliy Kresimir
Vasiliy Tomislav

Kind of hard to pronounce, but I've always been somewhat fond of Russian names, so it is rather nice. Svyatoslav is the best spelling, and is also the original spelling. I adore your combo, Svyatoslav Alexei! Yes, it pairs very well with Vladimir Ilya. Vasiliy Berislav is another nice combo of yours.

It's cool. I like Svyatoslav the best. It sounds fine with Alexei (or Aleksei). I love Vladimir Ilya. Berislav is nice too.
