Only Svetlana in Russian likes your name in Enlgish.
Svet - light. So, Svetlana can be translated as "light".

Ray, there is no need translating names into Russian. A lot of Russians names have Greek, Latin, Jewish or German origin and they mean nothing to most people.
The slavic-origin names have meaning. If you are interesting about the closest Russian name with the same meaning like yours so... There is a female name Svetlana which has the root "svet" - light.

Svetlana / Svet ....i can be use be my name , right ? but how to write in Russian ? hehehe~ thanks again and again ..... ^^ hugs !!!

Светлана. Света. Светочка. Светик.
All are different forms of same name.

Света equates Light ?
Slvetlana can written to Светлана , Света only written to Light ?

sorry , i know i do have many question ....plz forgive me ?

thank you so much !

^^

Светлана is the full name. Света is the short name. All other forms are pet names.

Sveta is a diminutive form for Svetlana. Kinda "kitty" is a diminutive form for "cat", "doggy" - for "dog". The word structure in Indo-European languages is [prefix]-root-[suffix]-[ending]. The root of words Svetlana and Sveta is "svet" - light. So Svetlana/Sveta means something like "(she is) light/bright".
Got it?

thank you every body !

Света ♂ I can use this be Russian Female name right ?

thx again ^^

By the way. Does the ending "-лана" in Светлана mean anything?
There is also a female name "Лана" in Russian.

I don't know russian name "Лана". Only "Лада".
Also I don't know what is "-лана" means. I think that it means nothing.

Your name is Рей or Рэй in Russian. Светлана is not your name.

isn't Лада an automobile in Russia?
