We’re looking for a name for Stephan and Jacob's little sister. Our current favorites are Zoe, Tessa, Anna, and Dasha. We prefer a name that works well in both -English and Russian, isn’t too common, and doesn’t sound weird in either language. Any thoughts?

How about Alexandra?

It really isn't common as a female name.

Anna would be my choice.

Anna is such an elegant name. Works in so many languages.

Zoe is my favourite- such a beautiful, simple name, and not currently too overused.

I also love Tessa and Anna.
