History & Origin

Antasia is a modern short form of Anastasia, a name carried by saints and Russian grand duchesses and rooted in the Greek anastasis, 'resurrection.' By dropping the opening, parents kept the elegant core sound while giving it a lighter, more contemporary feel.

Antasia appeared mainly from the 1980s into the 2000s and never rose above a few dozen girls a year. It reads as a fresh, pared-down take on a very old and dignified name.

Did you know? Antasia can be heard as Anastasia with its first sound softened away — a common American way to make a grand old name feel fresh and casual.
