i love my new name (Vassa) sm tho. at a glance (+knowing my name is Ukr), you'd think it's a diminutive of Vasylyna -- kingly, royalty -- and that theory is valid! but it might also be from the ancient Greek word vassa (βᾶσσα), and some sites just say it means 'desert', that accursed land where i'm from. but if you actually go to an ancient Greek dictionary, it comes up as 'wooded glen.' such a neat depth
