I knew a girl called Nikita who will be about 12 or 13 now. I don't love it but I quite like it and never knew it was a boy's name. In England it's pretty known as a girl's name.

I wouldn't bother about meanings of names either. Mine apparently means Hebrew Heifer which is just delightful. But I'm Rebecca which is a perfectly nice, normal sort of name and nobody cares about the meaning.

I prefer Nicole and Nicolette to Nikita. But think I prefer Nikita to Nicola. And Kiki is sweet.

Mis(c)ha is another Russian boys name used as a girls name further west.

It is definitely a girl's name in India. I think its one of those that works quite in both cultures cos it sounds reasonably familiar to English speakers.
