HelpRe: Name suggestions?
in reply to a message by MoonAgeDaydreamer
I think the trickiest thing with Eastern European names is finding ones that sound good in both the original accents and English/American accents.
Some gender neutral Slavic names off the top of my head are often diminutives of traditional names like Míša (Mee-shah) from Michal / Michaela, or Péťa (Peh-tya) from Petr / Petr. Then there's Sasha, Kája (Kaia), Dáda, Dagmar which is like technically strictly feminine in Czech, but sounds so masculine in English.
Some English & Hebrew & Biblical neutral names I like could be Micah, Alex, Jude, Glenn, Cameron, Robin, which all sound pretty good in a Slavic accent too, if that's what you're going for.
Some combos...
Alex Dagmar
Alex Vojtěch / Vojta
Micah Glenn
Micah Robin
Cameron Jude
Péťa Miloš
Robin Miloš
