The "proper" spellings would be in Cyrillic, and for those just see the entries here: Nikolai, Aleksandra, Olga, Tatyana, Mariya, Anastasiya, and Aleksey.

Those Latin spellings, btw, are generally considered the proper Romanisations of these particular Cyrillic names. However, more often than not I've seen Mariya and Anastasiya rendered without the Y.
