If I remember correctly, the Greek Orthodox missionaries took "the faith, " Eastern Orthodoxy, to Russia. That is why the Russian Cyrillic alphabet is similar to the Greek alphabet. The Eastern Orthodox religion includes many different countries under its rubric; it is not just Greek Orthodox.
The Russians, Serbs and other ethnic groups who belong to the Eastern Orthodox faith share the same dogma, the same faith; traditions can account for some variation in practice, and the language in a Russian Orthodox church or Greek Orthodox church spells out the main differentiating factor, for the most part. It is the same church -- just a different country, language and local customs.
So, we share the same saints, honoring the same religious heroes and martyrs. Although I am not an expert, I suspect there are saints for each ethnic division of the church that pertain primarily to that church's ethnicity.
Saint Basil (Vassilios), Saints Peter & Paul, Saint Marina (today is her celebration, by the way), the Panaghia (Virgin Mary), etc., are shared by all Eastern Orthodox churches.
"Anastasia" is most assuredly a christening name used by all Eastern Orthodox Christians.
ETA:
In the fifth century the relics of Saint Anastasia were transferred to Constantinople, where a church was built and dedicated to her. Later the head and a hand of the Great Martyr were transferred to the monastery of Saint Anastasia [Deliverer from Potions], near Mount Athos.
I do not remember correctly but I think Russian tzar Ivan III married Byzantin princess Sophia (Zoe) and that is how Russia became Orthodox. Again, not a 100% ,too tired to Google.

Yikes! I didn't know that, but it doesn't surprise me. I'm not totally sure how Phillip feels or once felt about Nazism.
