[Opinions] Re: Sasha or Sacha?
in reply to a message by Lily8
i prefer it as a nn for a boy. russian nns kind of do that, where they have a basis in the name, but really do change into another form. [e.g. avdotya - nn dunya/dounia/dunechka] i do know of one little girl named sasha. i feel like in the united states at least it is thoguht of as more feminine. i do think it's a little nicknamey. maybe a nn for sandra or alexandra/ria, etc. also i don't think that sacha is too hard to pronounce. it's a little more interesting i think, too. :)
