Which do you prefer?

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone!

I am Russian, having difficulty deciding between:

  1. [name_f]Anya[/name_f]
  2. [name_f]Yana[/name_f]
  3. [name_f]Irina[/name_f]

Thank you in advance for your opinions.

I love [name_f]Irina[/name_f]! It’s so beautiful and delicate. I am not a fan of the other two.

[name_f]Irina[/name_f]! I think it’s so pretty. My second choice would be [name_f]Anya[/name_f]. I’m not crazy about [name_f]Yana[/name_f].

Another vote for [name_f]Irina[/name_f] - so beautiful.

Thank you for the input so far :slight_smile:

I’ve always loved [name_f]Anya[/name_f]! [name_f]Irina[/name_f] is pretty too.

I like [name_f]Irina[/name_f] the best

I love [name_f]Irina[/name_f], but I find it’s a bit common. I have a friend [name_f]Marina[/name_f] who was supposed to originally be an [name_f]Anya[/name_f] as well (coincidentally, her mother’s name is also [name_f]Irina[/name_f]). However my favourite would have to be [name_f]Anya[/name_f]. I have simply always seen such beauty and charm in it.

Im currently learning how to speak Russian hah
My favorite is also [name_f]Irene[/name_f] followed up by [name_f]Anya[/name_f], I’ve never heard of [name_f]Yana[/name_f] being used in [name_f]Russia[/name_f] before though we do use it a lot here in Greece

[name_f]Irina[/name_f] is my favourite from your list. Absolutely beautiful! [name_f]Anya[/name_f] would be my second choice:)

Thank you everyone! I love [name_f]Irina[/name_f] too - my concern is it being shortened to [name_f]Irene[/name_f] which I am not big on!

I prefer #1, [name_f]Anya[/name_f].

I love [name_f]Yana[/name_f]! It sounds great, but it has a string, feisty, slightly wild feel to it and some great imagery.

To me, [name_f]Anya[/name_f] seems to work better as a nickname (for [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f], or maybe [name_f]Annabel[/name_f] or something similar).

[name_f]Yana[/name_f] is pretty, but I have to agree [name_f]Irina[/name_f] is the best one of the list in my opinion :slight_smile:

I think [name_f]Irina[/name_f] looks pretty, but I’m never sure on the pronunciation.

Is it Eye-reen-a? Eh-reen-a? Eh-renn-a?

My fave on the list is [name_f]Anya[/name_f].

I love [name_f]Anya[/name_f]

My vote goes to [name_f]Anya[/name_f]! I know a man who’s daughter’s name is [name_f]Anya[/name_f], and I absolutely love it!

I love [name_f]Irina[/name_f] and then [name_f]Anya[/name_f]

In order of how much I like them;
[name_f]Yana[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
[name_f]Irina[/name_f]

I can see why you are having a difficult time, all three are lovely with BEAUTIFUL Meanings! :slight_smile:

As so many others have said, [name_f]Irina[/name_f] is delicately exquisite, like a precious [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]! However, [name_f]Anya[/name_f] is actually my Favourite, incredibly warm and [name_u]Golden[/name_u]!! <3
