Another Anastasia from Krasnoyarsk. You've probably noticed by now that something like 80% of Russian women have one of about 5 or 6 names: Anastasia, Irina, etc. But that for each name there are 4 or 5 diminutives which are not always dead obvious (for example Natasha is nickname for Natalia, whereas Nastya is the the nickname for Anastasia). Plus add in that there are different ways to transliterate the names (anastasiya/anastasia, etc.), and believe me it's hard to search very effectively...
