I like it, one of my European all-time-fav's.

Not where I live. As this Internet quote will show: not identical, OK, but too close.SASKO operates 14 bakeries throughout South Africa, supplying over a million fresh loaves via more than 51 000 delivery points daily.

I love Saskia because it's sophisticated but also kinda brutal (see: meaning).

I worked with a Saskia. She was a fortysomething tough-talking ex-trucker who was built like a brick sh!thouse and had skin like tanned leather. She wore her hair slicked back in that sort of chav ponytail style and smoked like a chimney. She had that legendary gruff exterior, soft heart thing going on. Since she and Rembrandt's wife are the only Saskias I know of, it gives the name an interesting aura, a mixture of toughness and refined culture. I like it a lot. But people had a lot of trouble with Saskia's name, they tripped over it often. People don't generally talk to me about names, but more than one person told me privately that they didn't like her name. I felt bad about that, poor Saskia.

She was also legitimately Dutch and would occasionally get dressed up as an old-timey Dutch milkmaid, with the wooden clogs and winged cap and everything, for the local multicultural festival. It was amazing.

I like it, I met one in real life, it’s got a bit of a trendy vibe but also a history.

It's vaguely familiar to me. I can't remember where I first heard it. I think it's okay.
