Do you know if there are big differences between Finnish and Karelian? Are there any typical Karelian first names, or do the Finnish Karelians use Finnish names and the Russian Karelians Russian names?

Finnish and Karelian are very close, many words are the same and I'd say it's more like a Finnish dialect.
I don't know anything about names in Karelia, the Karelians I know (only 6!) have got Finnish names. And I don't know any Russian Karelians at all... jag är ledsen! ;)
