[name]Russia[/name] is not really my style. But I prefer uncommon names, so I say if you both love it - go for it! And people are using place names all the time lately - like you said [name]Chyna[/name] and [name]India[/name], [name]Ireland[/name], [name]Sydney[/name], [name]Asia[/name], etc.
I like [name]Russia[/name], but I also think it’s weird, and your child will get flack for it. As I posted before, I’d advise you to consider Jerussia (NN [name]Russia[/name]) or Prussia (which at least is a bit less political, in my view). Perhaps put [name]Russia[/name] in the middle slot, you can still call her [name]Russia[/name]. I don’t see any problem with [name]Isabel[/name] [name]Russia[/name]. PS I didn’t vote.
