I encountered this name today on a middle-aged woman whose accent I couldn't place.
What do you think of Olessia? I think it is pretty and can see the appeal in an
Odessa,
Alessandra kind of way.
Edit: Olessia is, of course, an entirely legitimate name. I found it interesting on a woman whose accent I couldn't pick (but wasn't Russian) is all and am considering how it would come across on a child from an English speaking background.
