Maybe Ekaterina? full: Екатерина among friends: Катя diminutive: Катенька, Катюша But why is not Kamila? full: Камила among friends: Камила, Мила diminutive: Камилочка, Милочка,... maybe Камилёнок :)

Hi! Kamila is not very common name in Russia (but very common in Tatarstan as far as I know) but of course it is OK to use it, your name sounds very beautiful! The diminutive form may be Mila ("Mila" is similar to russian word "милая" which means "nice", "sweet", "lovely") . Mila is also a diminutive form of Russian name Lyudmila. I don't know any other Russian names except Aleksandra (and Alexandr - for men) that have the diminutive form Sasha.

I am very sorry, but what means 'Russian name'? And why you need to change your name when you are learning Russian (or any other language)?

Камилла - read the same, it would be not too strange name for russian people
