Рома
A shortened, affectionate form of Roman, ultimately from Latin Romanus: "of Rome".
Meaning and origin
Roma is the everyday short form Russian speakers use for a boy named Roman, built the same way many Russian names are clipped into a warm two-syllable form, as Sasha stands for Alexander or Kolya for Nikolai.
