975.0. "NEED RUSSIAN NAMES...." by BUSY::BONINA () Mon Dec 12 1994 14:56

    My husband and I seem to like a lot of Russian names, I was wondering
    if anyone had a list of them they might want to share.
    
    My 3 years daughter is a Natasha Alexis......so one of our favorites
    ....Natalia is out because it would be too confusing.  
    
    We're in need of both boy and girl names.
    
    We're thinking we might want to use the middle name Alexsei for either
    a girl or boy....but who knows...that plan could change.  I'd love to
    use Alexsei for a first name but my husbands not keen on that idea.
    
    Any help would great be appreciated.

	Can't think of what the spelling would be, but there's a Russian variation of Elizabeth - something like Elizavieta. Sasha is a nickname for both Alexander and Alexandra. Pasha is also a nickname for a boy. Russian Peter is Piotr (pronounced pee-yo'-ter). Yekaterina is our Katherine. Katya ("cot'-ya") is the nickname. Our Richard would be something like Rihurt (that's not likely the right spelling). My name in Russian class was Karolina (Carol-ee'na). Other boys' names (don't know if they were mentioned) are: Yuri, Ivan (which is pronounced ee-von'), Boris, Josef (yo-sef', I think) Carol
