Ugh, when I think about it, my dad wanted to name me after a heroine from a Strugatsky book – Stella. Brrr... Lena is much better. :) Dasha is a very beautiful name and it's not old-fashioned at all! Dasha, Dashenka. Besides, if your parents gave you that name and you grew up with it, then you are Dasha, and you can't have any other name. A new life should have its own name, otherwise it won't have any destiny. Without a name, a person is nobody. :)

Anyone who doesn't like their name can easily change it... Go to the passport office, wait a couple of weeks, and get a new passport with the name you choose...

Yeah, right. If I do that (by the way, it costs 900 rubles), I'll have such a headache that I'll be dealing with it for another month. Besides, the person has a bunch of documents besides their passport. You won't have time to change them all. I don't know how our class monitor managed it.

Besides, it's even better when they call you by a diminutive, affectionate name.

"Stella" would be better.

Listen, after reading your posts, I get the feeling that your situation is hopeless. Are you... named Fedya?:confused:

My friends call me Yurik... it's not related to my name.
And we have three buddies - Yurik, Burik, and Terka - these are all nicknames.

Yep, Genevefa. :smile51: That's right, it's hopeless. Yes, it sounds idiotic and the meaning is unclear!!! :smile35:

And because of my constant brawls and stories about the past glory of my people, they nicknamed me "Scyth" (when I was about 14 years old).

Well, if you think about it:
1. On game servers and in computer clubs, I'm known as R.3.M.:smile03:
2. But on the streets and at school, they just call me Bayan:o (because in class – it all started in school, with my friends – I'm the first one to crack jokes and come up with excuses for why I didn't do my homework for the umpteenth time...).

Yeah, Genevefoy. :smile51: Exactly, it's hopeless. Yes, it sounds idiotic, and the meaning is unclear!!! :smile35:

It's not idiotic at all! I like it! :) It's a name you don't often encounter! ;) You can also look up what it means; it could be really cool! :)

Kochiev Atsamaz Leonidovich! I like my name! And those who don't like it...

Guys! Everything is okay! These are normal names! It's not like Dazdraperma or Dazdrakrasarm?! ;) :)

Not at all unoriginal! I like it! :) Besides, it's not a name you hear often! ;) You could also look up what it means; that would be really cool! :)

Huh?! Actually, that was sarcasm. :smile07:
In French, it means "seductress."
And what "Draco"? I'm not Malfoy.

I'll say this: I've gotten used to almost all the Russian names. I won't list them to avoid offending anyone. But when I hear an original, unique name, I don't have any mocking associations. Quite the opposite. I'm all for diversity. So, it shouldn't be seen as a pathological case if a name stands out from the others.

I'll just say that I've grown used to almost all the Russian names. I won't list them so as not to offend anyone. But when I hear an original, ownable name, I don't have any mocking associations. On the contrary. I'm generally all for diversity. So it shouldn't be seen as a clinical case if a name stands out from others.
I'm telling you, that was sarcasm. "Genovefa" would be better (at least I know the exact meaning) than the current one.
Yesterday at the meeting with Pekhov, one unpleasant person ruined the whole mood—he told his girlfriend my nick and name (and even added in a whisper, "Imagine that"—since when does he decide how I can be called? :mad:), even though I asked him in plain Russian not to do the latter.
