Anastasia

Anastasia Myskina is an attractive lady. Nobody’s ever going to contest that, even when she’s quite a bit older and is sprouting gray hair. But part of her appeal stems not just from looks, but from the name she’s been given.

And who would contest that, either? ‘Anastasia’ is a beautiful name. Even to foreign tongues it slips past the lips with great ease and delicacy. As such its proven a popular name in quite a few countries. Here are just a few Anastasia’s to have graced the annals of history:

- Anastasia Horne, an American soap opera star.
- Saint Anastasia the Patrician, from the sixth century.
- Escrava Anastacia, a Brazilian saint of slaves.
- Anastasia Blue, a former pornographic actor.
- Anastacia Newkirk, more popularly known as Anastacia, an American pop singer.
- And even Albert Anastasia (a man, in this case), a mafia boss who died in the 1950’s.
