Alyona
Alyona (Template:Langx) or Aliona is a Russian female given name derived from the Ancient Greek name Script error: No such module "Lang"., Helenē (dialectal variant: Script error: No such module "Lang"., Helena). See "Helen" for its history. For a long time it was considered to be a colloquial variant of the name Elena . During the Soviet times people had difficulties to officially register the name Alyona, with bureaucrats referring to the dictionaries that stated that "Alyona" is a variant of "Elena". In modern times it is no longer a problem in Russia, keeping in mind that legally Elena and Alyona are considered to be different names.[1]
