vas(i)-liya
Origin:Russian
Other Origin(s):Greek
Meaning:King, emperor; Royal, kingly
Vasiliya is a girl’s name of Russian origin, meaning “royal” or “kingly.” Greek at its core, it draws its worship-worthy etymologies from the name Basil, a popular title among rulers of the Byzantine empire, meaning “king” or “emperor.” Vasiliy, a closer counterpart to Vasiliya, has quite a few ties to the throne, too, from the grand princes of Russia to tsars and more. Perhaps your little royal can claim a crown of their own with this noble selection!
