How Would You Translate My Name in Russian?

My usual first name is Mary-Ann. I've been told it would be "Masha" in Russian.

My middle name is Sylvie. How would it be translated in Russian? It would like to know what the last name "Roche" would be in Russian.

Thank you !

How do you pronounce Roche?

Рош

Mary-Ann is two different names - Мария и Анна ( simly Маша и Аня)

Sylvie - Hmmm.... May be "Светлана" (Света)? I think this name can not be translated directly

В данном случае самым удачным переводом IMHO будет такой:
Мария Сильвия Роше.

1) Mary-Ann - такого имени в русском нет, только отдельно Мария или Анна, при переводе обычно используется имя Мария.
2) Roche - конечно последнее "e" не произносится, но в русском принято такие фамилии переводить именно так, произнося это "е"


In this case the best IMHO translation will be:
...
1) Marry-Ann - there's now such name in Russian, only Marry or Ann, and in the translation is usually used Marry.
2) Roche - sure the last "e" is silent, but in russian translation tradition it's pronounced...

Старославянское имя, занчит типа "Greatest " примерно..

Yuilia - greek ; = July

The "short" variant of Vyacheslav is Slava, or Slavik (sounds too informaly):)

don't suppose anyone wants to have a crack at the russian equivilent for Virginia?? and Gin (thats me nickname) thanx
Cya
Gin

Gin would be гин, Virginia I'm guessing would be Виргиния.

Может лучше так:

Вирджиния
Джина

I actually know a russian person with the name Марианна so I guess that's what you are. Sylvie is Сильвия. =р Well, if you want the russian equivalent, then I dunno.

Как я мог забыть... Марианна... Точно! :oops:
How could I forget... That's it!
