I just saw your edit, Sherry. She goes by Lana, but here's another funny story about her name. When she was born in North Korea, my great-grandmother was living in China. My grandmother sent her a letter to tell her about her new great-granddaughter, named Svetlana. She went straight to church and asked the priest to say a mass for her new great-granddaughter. He asked for the name of the child. She had never heard the name Svetlana (because it was a pagan name), so she couldn't quite remember it, but she knew it was something new, so she told him it was "Aeroplana." So the priest said a mass for some unknown airplane, and a feminine one at that (the "a" on the end of the name means it's feminine).
Incidentally, the reason she was baptized "Photinia" is that she was born close to St. Photinia's day. There are saints associated with every day in the Russian Orthodox calendar. That's why Russians have namesdays or feast days in addition to their birthdays. Birthdays were never as big a deal as namesdays when I was growing up.
