Origin
The name Anastasia originated during the early days of Christianity and was given to many Greek girls born in December and around Easter.[1] It was established as the female form (Greek: Ἀναστασία) of the male name Anastasius (Greek: Ἀναστάσιος Anastasios pronounced [anaˈstasi.os]),[2] and has the meaning of "she/he of the resurrection".[2][3] It is the name of several early saints; including Anastasia of Sirmium, a central saint from the 3rd century who is commemorated during the first Mass on Christmas Dawn each year according to the traditional calendar of the Catholic Church[1] and on December 22 according to the Eastern Orthodox Church. Slavic diminutives include Nastya,[2] Nastia or Nastja (Serbian, Slovenian) as well as various hypocoristics: Nastenka, Nastyusha, Nastyona, Nastasia, Nastunja.
