Yeah, that's right. Greek words with theta ('th' sound) were transliterated in Russian with letter 'θ' (фита) in the Church Slavonic and in the old orthography, but words with phi (φ) were transliterated with ф. They both were pronounced 'ph' in Russian, and with the elimination of the old orthography, фита became ф.

Boy's name:Misha
Girl's names: Vera, Kateya(sp?) Tatyana(sp?)

Girl's names: Татьяня, Экатерина
Boy's names: Алексей, Саша

hehe two people that like my name

Любимые женские имена: Перестройка, Инвестиция, Матрица;
Любимые мужские имена: Монитор, Консенсус, Дистрибьютер.

Don't forget 'Traktor', 'Pyatiletka' and 'Ninel'.

To be exact according the church rules the name "Dmitriy" must be pronounced as "Dimitriy", came from the ancient Greek word "Demetrious", that is related to the Goddess of Earth .. . something like this

Actually Dmitriy(first i is under the stress) is official name; friends call me Dimon (Deemon) (o is under the stress) or just Dima..(i);

girl- Katya
boy- nikolai

Would type them in Russian but I'm at school right now.

I never liked the name Polina particularly...until now .
