[quote=Anonymous]Andrei may read Russian. Andrey may read Polish or Ukrainian. Andrey is probably more likely to be pronounced correctly. For best results, use the version that correctly matches the parents' country background and let the kid choose his Americanized nickname. I work with a fully Americanized, possibly American-born, Istvan from a Hungarian-American family. He only goes by Steve but his official paperwork says Istvan. Nobody cares. Another solution is to name Andrew then nickname Andy or Drew.[/quote]
