I'm trying to name a character and decided to look at some Russian names.
Sasha is my current favorite. What do you guys think of
Sasha? And (bonus!) what type of person does
Sasha make you think of? Do you guys think it'd be better for
Aleksandr to be the full name with
Sasha as the nn, or just make
Sasha the full name?
I also liked, to a lesser degree:
Dmitri - called
Dima (too associated with
Anastasia to me),
Kesha and
Luka (doesn't sound quite right),
Sanya and
Lev (too soft/short),
Nikita,
Nikon, and
Rodion (doesn't fit the character well)
Mikhail - called
Mishka,
Yasha (2nd best), and
Yura (could use these)
*I should note that the story does not take place in Russia or any other country. It's a dystopian story. I merely like Russian names.
