It's definitely usable. I loved the
Anastasia Krupnik books (by
Lois Lowry) as a child and even wrote my own books about a Swedish
Anastasia.
I think I stopped loving the name when someone said it sounded like "metastasis" and since then I can't think of
Anastasia without thinking "metastasis"...
I think it's one of the "romantic" names a lot of people tend to like, a bit like
Charlotte,
Scarlett,
Rhiannon...
Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?
