Re: Paige's Russia lessons
Interesting fact is that Elizabeth goes all the way back to a Greek variant of a Hebrew name, and in transliterated Koine(ish) Greek it's Elisabet.
From that form, it's been borrowed almost unchanged in many languages, including Russian.
I'm pretty sure Philip could render as Filip, but I really don't know how Russified that is.
