[Stuart Goldberg]

I am answering to the list because the resource is worth knowing about.

On www.gramota.ru, among other dictionaries, there is an online Slovar'
russkikh imen.

Their spravka is also a very nice service.  They are usually quite
quick, and one answer I received included references to 17th- and early
18th-century dictionaries.
