We kept our daughter's name of Anastasia, but changed to the "Disney" pronunciation. She was adopted at age 4. We used the nickname of Nastia that she was called in Russia for the first 6 months and then switched over to her full name when she started kindergarten. We felt that Nastia was too close to the word "nasty" and we had already heard another child say so. I love the name and things have worked out really well.
