Reply Viktor Jun 25 at 1:52 pm Incredible name in my opinion! Yes in Russia we have name Raisa, which is full name and short nickname is Raya, but I don’t like Raisa, only short version, and after cartoon we decided to name our daughter Raya. She should be born at December of this year! Im so glad this name is incredible and rare.
