This is my name, but my friends call me Van, even though it doesn’t match the pronunciation.

This name reminds me of Vanya from the Umbrella Academy, it’s kind of sad actually. Anyways, this name sounds rather feminine to me, especially with how similar it is to “Anya”.

Pronounced "VAN-yə".
It is also used as a female name here in Bulgaria. I know it from way too personal point of view. That's why I never use my real name /the one we're talking about/ anywhere on the internet. It is a nightmare to be a girl having a name that's known to be used as short call for russian boys. Especially if you hate Russia in your guts.
I also thought it was a feminine name. Mostly because I kept mixing it up with Valya.
I always thought that 'Vanya' was more feminine than masculine. Because of this, and my strange logic, I think it's a very cute name~!
