Russian Culture Monday: Russian Names

A few weeks ago, a discussion about Russian names was begun on Russian Culture Monday. First names, patronymics, and last names were discussed. The topics have been grouped together for easy access with links to more information that describes how the Russian naming system differs from what you may be used to. So whether you're reading a Russian book with characters who seem to be called by a different name every time you turn the page, or you're preparing for a trip to Russia during which you'll meet new people, you'll be able to quickly find the answers to your questions from one main page:
