Vanja is unisex name in Croatia, spelled this way. Vanya is Russian variation, which is boy name, but in Croatia this name is used as unisex name spelled only Vanja way.

Quite beautiful when pronounced correctly, but at first I thought the "j" was pronounced phonetically and the name reminded me of (excuse me for saying this; maybe I just have a potty mind) a vag-ina.
