So what is the traditional Russian nickname for Alexandra? |
|
I would avoid anything that ends in E because in German, they pronounce that E, so Simone would be See-moh-neh. Also be wary of names like Clara that would be Claire-ah in English but Clah-rah in Europe. Someone recommended Eva, but that would be Ee-vah in English, but Ay-vah in other languages. Even Ella would be El-lah vs. Ay-lah.
Your best bet is something like Maria or Nina that others have recommended. |
Eeevah or Ay-vah? |
Ann-ah or Ah-na? |
Say-rah or Sah-rah? |
I would choose a Russian name - Anya, Katarina, etc. |
+1. Super easy and translatable into nearly every language. Love it |
