Hi again!
I think "Melanie" has an equivalent in Greek. I am not quite sure. But is it possible to write "Melanie Natasha" in Greek characters? If so, please, type it in. I don't have Greek characters in my computer. Only English ones.

Is it Melaina or Melania? Because i've found that Melaina is Greek but ancient Greek.

Where is the stress? Mela(ni)a and Mela(i)na?

[I will give the spanish pronunciation]:

1) Melaina = [M'elena] = Μέλαινα > Ancient greek for "black"

> for a feminine name, you wouldn't want to use it, I think.

2) Melania = [Melan'ia] = Μελανία > Modern greek

> rather a direct translation of the english name Melanie
> artistic name -- keep in mind that μελάνι [mel'ani] == "ink"
> in english it's Mel'ania, or Mel'(ae)nia, isn't it?

3) Melanie Natasha [M'elani Nat'asa]-- Μέλανι Νατάσ(σ)α

> You might want to try: Mέλανυ Νατάσα or Mέλανυ Νατάσσα.

[Why would you want to translate the names?
Also, Natassa (from Anastas'ia == Anastacia) is often used in Greek as a name, in case you didn't know.]

Melaina in ancient Greek means black. It doesn't exist as a name. You should use Melania or just Melanie.
In Greek characters: ΜΕΛΑΝΙΑ ΝΑΤΑΣΑ
or ΜΕΛΑΝΙ ΝΑΤΑΣΑ.
In this case the accent is where you can see it on the small letters where I am also writing your name:
Μελανία Νατάσα / Μέλανι Νατάσα

Yes, 'Melanie' does have an equivalent in Greek:
Melania Natasa : the anglicised version
Μελανία Νατάσα : in Greek (and Greek characters)

Μελανία Νατάσα sounds like Melania Natasha in English, so the equivalent in sound and letters to the anglicised is:

Μέλανη Νατάσα

(Please remember to stress the words correctly).
