“Ancient Greek 'resurrection' in a sleek modern package”
Origin & Etymology
Stassi is a diminutive of Anastasia, the elaborate Greek name meaning 'resurrection' or 'she who shall rise again' — from 'ana' (again, up) and 'stasis' (standing, existence). Anastasia was a beloved name in Eastern Orthodox Christian tradition, given in honor of Saint Anastasia of Sirmium. The shorter Stassi brings the ancient name's dramatic meaning into a breezy, contemporary package.
Popularity Story

Anastasia carries enormous weight in Russian history — Grand Duchess Anastasia Romanova, youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, became one of history's most romanticized tragic figures after the 1918 execution of the Russian royal family. The name carries a complex mix of royal glamour and heartbreaking history.
