Roman was Roman Mikhailovich. We kept Roman, and his new middle name is my father's (Leonard). Funny about nicknames - the orph. staff always called him "Roma". Why just a shortened name, I always wondered. But we've found ourselves doing it too!

HI,
We named our daughter
"Veronica Maryalla"
Her name was Alla. They called her Allitchka in the orphanage.
We both wanted to Alla in her name but we really wanted Mary as her middle name so we put the two together.
