Anastazja (Aleksandra) Ruslana Lisowska
[edit]Her name "Roxelana" most probably. Moreover, it's not sure if her original name was "Aleksandra", but a lot of sources mention another Polish name - "Anastazja" (her childhood nickname was "Nastja" or "Nastia"). Now the most important - her surname was "Lisowska", not "Lisovski". In the Slavic languages like Polish, Bulgarian, or Ukrainian, the surnames that end with "ski" in case of males, in the feminine form end with "ska". One more thing - she came from Rohatyń, then the territory of the Kingdom of Poland (now, Ukraine). So to sum up - her ORIGINAL name most probably was Anastazja Lisowska or Aleksandra Lisowska and she probably had a middle name Ruslana. 78.8.235.88 (talk) 13:22, 18 October 2014 (UTC). She was a peasant girl and the peasants did not have middle names in those times.
Her name and surname is uknown. Anastazja (Aleksandra) Ruslana Lisowska is her literary name Mariam110906 (talk) 12:55, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
Hurrem Sultan
[edit]If you read in some books it says that she was a Queen if you look online it says she went from a slave to a Queen, and I know it could be wrong but if you put in google translate "Sultan" and translate it to Turkish underneath it will say all the words that it means including Queen, a lot of people and written books about her and said she was Queen.

She was a sex slave
[edit]This should be mentioned more often and throughout the text. Arnsonstidgley (talk) 17:56, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- It is already made clear. She was a slave and she was a concubine; hence, she was a sex slave. That is already stated in the article and will be clear to the reader.--Aciram (talk) 18:35, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
