History & Origin
Nastashia is a variant that sits between Anastasia and Natasha, two forms of a single Greek name. Anastasia comes from anastasis, meaning 'resurrection' or 'rising again,' a word rich in Easter symbolism, while Natasha is its affectionate Russian diminutive. Nastashia fuses the shape of both, keeping the stately meaning of renewal within a spelling that reads as a personal, softened take on the classic.
The name was never common in this form, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak in the late nineteen-eighties. A Nastashia born then is nearing forty now, a contemporary of the Anastasia revival.
