Russian name

[tallc00lone.livejournal.com]

For history we're doing a project where we have to act as immigrants to America. I was assigned Russia, which is basically the hardest langueage to learn any words to *pulls hair out*

Well, that was off subject.
But anyways, my immigrant is going to be a poor, struggling ballerina named Anastasiya* Roccanova. Do you think this name fits both her character, and ethnicity?

**Anastasiya is pronounced Ahn-uh-staw-see-uh

Anastasia is one of the Russian names that they took from Greek, so either way is correct.
