    I love Elena and Eva, they're so pretty and sweet. And of course, Svetlana is gorgeous.

    I also like: Elizaveta, which means 'vow to God'
    Larisa
    I really like Lidiya, the Russian form of Lydia.
    Another one I found is Lyubov, which means love. I kind of like it, and it would probably sound quite nice as a middle name.

    Elena Lyubov Zakharova
    Eva Svetlana Zakharova
    Elizaveta Larisa Zakhorova
