1. Could I use
Anya as a name on its own?
Anastasia doesn't fit; I need a short name.
No. It's too cutesy and insbustantial and using nicknames as full names is a practice I hate. It's traditionally a nickname for
Anna, but
Annabel or
Anneliese would work too.
2.
Anya or
Reine to go with
Liv?
Anya if it's a nickname but
Reine if you'd just go with
Anya. For the record, I prefer
Liv as a nickname too. I'd adore a sibset of
Anna /
Annabel /
Anneliese and
Olivia /
Lavinia /
Livia /
Liviana "
Anya and
Liv"!
3. Any other short, unusual names you can suggest?
