    You don't have problem with height and weight, you have it totally enough, now you have 48kg on 167... But your height limit you because you can't participate in different competitions because minimum there is 173, and sometimes even more that 175.

    Am i right? I think to start learning this language.
    Right ! up

    Yes, the girl doesn't look Russian, or any kind of Slavic.

    Hess, Milena doesn't have same meaning like Melanie... In Southern and Western Slavic countries it means gracious or beloved. In Czech, pet name for Milena is Milenka, and it is same like Czech word for lover or mistress. Although in Latin countries they say it is combination of Maria and Helena (Mylene in French is actually Marie Hellene).

    I heard it was number one in Armenia few years ago, but it's not Caucasian name.

    It is. Czechs even have chocolate with that name:



    In Czech and Slovak calendar, name day is celebrated on 24th January. In Polish i think 24th May but i am not sure...

    Melanie or the Western versions of that name is actually of Greek origin:
    Melanie as a girl's name is pronounced MEL-a-nee. It is of Greek origin, and the meaning of Melanie is "black, dark". From the French form of the Latin name Melania, derived from Greek "melaina".

    Here Milena is more popular than Milana, Milana is even somehow rare, but those 2 names are just variants.
    Grozenka, don't put that sad face, we saw your pics and you look good. Like a real woman.

    I have 166 and 52, but it's not always important how much kilos you have, but where they are.

    Melanie is of Greek origin, but Milena or Milana are not version of Melanie, and doesn't have same roots, although it sounds similar.

    Sad in a way that Russians have lost a lot of their old Slavonic names in favour of Orthodox Greek inspired ones. Rather like our situation in England, where native Old English names are almost unheard of now. I've always been impressed how Jugoslavs have kept more variety in their names, retaining much from the old Slavonic naming stock.

    I have a feeling that the old English names have turned into last names rather than first names. >> http://baby-names.adoption.com/origin/old-english.html

    not all of our names are Slavonic, there are some that are unique here.

    Example, Domagoj, Borna, Visko, Mišo...etc
