I have continually asked if the five Matryoshka dolls
have individual names - can anyone please answer my question?
Hi Athlyn,
Well done Hubpage!
My daughters played with a set of nesting dolls given to them by my sister. My niece played with them. The girls were fascinated by the clever way these were constructed and would spend hours opening an closing them.
Respectfully,
Nicholas Chase
I have a great set of Matryoska dolls that I bought in Moscow in 1992, with Soviet and Russian leaders ending with Yeltsin.

Hi Andy,
Which five dolls are you referring to? I've never come across dolls with specific names but this might be a reality somewhere, depending on who made the nesting dolls. I could see this with political leader nesting dolls.
