No, indeed, but her parents - who named her in the first place - were either strong supporters or trying to appear as if they were. And they must have been familiar with all things Stalin: OK, he was a good wartime leader, but I would not have wanted to be one of his citizens.
"Or trying to appear as if they were". Glad you remembered to add that. Unfortunately, people can and do what they feel they must do to survive in Wartime. Sometimes that has included naming practices. Not all of the children named after dictators were because their parents were worshipping supporters.
Either way, she lived in Ukraine for long time so I feel bad. Being called Stalina in Russia is not good but being called Stalina in Ukraine is even worse, in Ukraine everybody hates Stalin because he starved us.
