What Does the Name Nastassia Mean?
Nastassia is a Slavic form of Anastasia, and its meaning, "resurrection," comes from the Greek word anastasis. That word is formed from ana- ("up, again") and histanai ("to stand"); it literally refers to a standing up or raising up, and in Christian usage it became the ordinary term for resurrection. Anastasia is the feminine form of the Greek name Anastasios, built on the same root.
Nastassia Name History & Origins
Anastasia was used in the Greek-speaking Christian world and was borne by early saints and martyrs, including Saint Anastasia of Sirmium. Through Greek Christian usage the name was adopted into Slavic languages, where it took forms such as Russian Anastasiya and the familiar Russian form Настасья (Nastasya).
The spelling Nastassia is used especially as a transliteration of the Belarusian form Настасся. It is a Slavic rendering of the same Greek name, not a separate name with an independent etymology. In English, Nastassia also appears as a variant spelling of Anastasia.
