History & Origin
Natassia is an elaborated respelling of Natasha, the Russian pet form of Natalia. That parent name comes from the Latin 'natalis,' 'of the birth,' understood as the birthday of Christ — Christmas — and was traditionally given to girls born in that season. The -ssia ending lends Natasha a softer, more ornamental finish.
The name crested around 1983, when Russian-flavored names like Natasha and Nadia were fashionable in America, then eased back with them. It reads as an elegant early-eighties styling, and a Natassia today carries the warmth of Natasha with a distinctive spelling of its own.
