Help[Opinions] Re: Rate names I would name my future children
in reply to a message by Anya Mel’nik or Mel’nyk
I really like both of your lists! A lot of Slavic and traditional names. I'm from Czechia, and these are rarely used nowadays. My favorite is Viktor "Vitya". I love Vitya, though I'd choose Vitaliy as the full name. Yukhym is new to me; I like the sound and meaning. Horyk is a cute nickname. Too bad there isn't an equivalent to it in Czech. Igor/Ihor sounds a bit too strict/tough. From the girls' list, I especially enjoy Svitlana "Svitka" and Yaryna "Yarka".

In Ukraine we still use the traditional names quite often.
I'm not surprised you've not heard of the name Yukhym, it's not a common name. It's a form of the Greek name Euthymios. The Russian form is Yefim if you've heard that one.
