[Facts] Jascha
Does anyone know about the name Jascha, origin or meaning? It is a male name; the Jascha I know is an American, uncertain about his heritage. Do you think it could be a form of Yasha? Thanks,
Sara

I'm a Jascha from Philippines and Jascha's language of origin is Hebrew and it is predominantly used in the Russian language. My mom said Jascha and Jacob are the same so Jascha must have the same definition of Jacob given that Jascha was derived from Jacob.

Yes, I think it could be a form of Yasha. Jascha is the German spelling.
