Natasha as a name

Natasha is a name of Slavic origin, commonly used in Russia and other Eastern European countries. It is a diminutive form of the name Natalya, which means “born on Christmas Day” in Russian.

The name Natasha became more popular in the English-speaking world in the mid-20th century, due in part to the character of Natasha Rostova in Leo Tolstoy’s novel “War and Peace”. It is now a well-recognized name in many countries and cultures, and is often associated with qualities such as beauty, grace, and intelligence.
