In order to better understand Sasha's perspective, I tried asking her about Russian culture.

This is Sasha's full name♪

Александра Святославовна Курникова Aleksandra Svyatoslavovna Kurnikova

Subyatosuhyara...

Ahaha!

СвятославовнаSvyatoslavovna.

It's called a "patronym". Russian children get a name from their papa's!

Sasha's papa is named "Svyatoslav".

The patronym changes depending on if it's a girl or a boy...

Father

Son

Daughter

Huh...

The ending is different!

* There are many other variations as well.
