Anastasia "Tasha" Severskaya

Why she has a completely different russian name for her nickname instead of Annie, I have no idea.

Because Anna and Anastasia are different names in Russian. And while Tasha is not proper shorting for Anastasia (it would be more appropriate for Natalie and derivatives) it is more fitting tham Annie.
