I don"t know about Russian proper but Polish have a phrase (Sto" Lat!) literally (may you live)-l00 Years! in popular usage a mixture of (Good Luck!) or (Congratulations) It has been argued that this Polish phrase may have inspired the quite opposite meaning American phrase-It sounds almost homonymic- So, What! or So What! In other words, Who cares! It is possible the Polish longevity phrase was corrupted into the American and derisive-So What! Viva or Vive (depending on Gender literally Alive! can have the(Long live) aspect- well, Viva Czarina! for example Long live the Empress or Czarina. By the way Anastasia never formally claimed this title, she was (Only) a Grand Duchess or Czarevna- Western usage Crown Princess. Thus she w3ould be styled Your Highness or Imperial Highness, not (Majesty). Except possiboly for ceremonial purposes Stacy never wore a crown after the revolution.
