We are expecting a little girl in a couple of months and currently live outside of our homeland. We are Russian, however hopefully we will be back by the time she is due, as we are only out of the country for a work contract.
We have a list of names and we are struggling in case she is actually born outside of Russia. We live in the UK at the moment, so pronunciation might be an issue.
Aleksandra
Anastasia
Ekaterina
Irina
Maria
Tatiana
Xenia
Irina is my top name, however my husband does not mind. I like it a lot, however I am worried I might regret it if she ends up being my only girl, as I like all the names on our list. I have a lot of girl names saved from earlier times, I did not expect 5 boys. She is our first girl, and I like far more girls names than I do boys so it is hard.
Her siblings are Vladimir, Nikolai, Anton, Mikhail and Kirill.
