Hot sports opinion: I prefer this as a Masculine name. For boys with Slavic ancestry of course. Like, I wouldn't name MY son Sasha, but one of my characters in my stories is Russian and I named him Sasha. It's a great name.

Absolutely charming. If it was less popular I would use it.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! I have always appreciated the refined, yet playful feel of the name “Alexandra”. However, I have known too many Alex’s and Alexa’s to fully enjoy the name. I recently came across the name “Sasha”, and I fell in love with it. It has definitely worked its way into the US as a feminine name, but it all comes down to your culture (i.e. Russia and Ukraine). I love the name for an American girl, mainly because it has the “stand-alone power” even though it is a nickname (i.e. Lily, Bella). I am excited to use the name Sasha one day, whether for a child or a character (NOT a pet! Sasha is NOT a pet’s name!).

Sasha is a Slavic name and although it is more commonly used for boys it's actually a unisex diminutive form of both Aleksandr and Aleksandra. See: Aleksandra "Sasha" Soldatova a Russian female gymnast. I've noticed that there are a remarkable amount of male footballers called Saša.

Its origins are NOT as a boy's name :) This is the nickname for Alexandra/er, and "Alexandra" was one of the epithets given to the Greek goddess Hera (goddess, not god!) and as such is usually taken to mean "one who comes to save warriors (men)". So originally this name was just an "occupation"... female occupation, btw. Also, the earliest attested form of the name is female. Sasha therefore is of female origin too.

I adore this name for a girl. It has a balmy breeze, warm spring day feel to it. I'd love to use it for a daughter one day, the only thing that puts me off is that it's also used a lot for boys too and its origins are as a boy's name.

My name is Sasha. I'm from the U.S. and I was born in 1982. I was born Sasha Michelle, and I was always mistaken for Tasha or Sarah. I've always loved my name, I would never change it and I think Sasha is a wonderful name for your daughter. Trust me, you won't regret using Sasha for your little girl. She'll love you for it.

Love love LOVE this name for a girl! :) It is the name of the little sister of one of my best friends. They are Russian and her real name is Alexandra (or Aleksandra, I'm not sure how she spells it). My best friend calls her Sushi for a nickname, which I think is really cute. Alexandra is one of my favorite names for a girl, and Sasha is just a perfect short form! I also like Allie, Alex, Lexie, etc., but I think Sasha might just take the cake!

I know a girl named Sasha. She's Ukrainian. Anyway, she says she doesn't care about her name. I think it's a good name. Sasha and Maxine are both refreshing names to hear than all those Emma's, Mila's, Isla's. I love Emma, but don't care for Mila or Isla.

Sasha is such a chill, tranquil, lovely name. It's very lush, like a soft, cool breeze blowing over an open field. Sasha is the clean, refreshing scent of petrichor that fills the midday air in the aftermath of a rainstorm; she is the rainbow that embellishes the sky moments later. Sasha is the joy of petting your beloved pet. Sasha is the sweet, cool taste of an ice pop on a hot summer day, or the rich, warm flavor of hot cocoa when you are snowed in. Sasha is the peaceful vibe of smooth jazz in a sophisticated but not too high end restaurant. Any girl (or boy) who is blessed with the name Sasha is bound to contribute to the warmth this name possesses.

Sasha is a name for both males and females. Full name Alexander/Alexandra. This name is most used in countries like Russia, Ukraine, other countries that were in the Soviet Union and some European countries.
I don't understand why people hate this name and any other name- it's not like it's your name.
P.s. my name's also Sasha.

Love this name, especially as a nickname for Aleksandr/ Alexander! It only might sound feminine in English because of the pronunciation; where I’m from it’s said more like “sUH-sha” and sounds more masculine. I can see how sA-sha sounds feminine when it rhymes with Mascha.

Sasha is actually the diminutive in some form or another for the male Alexander and the female Alexandra. As most countries view it as only a diminutive, it is not a formal name. There are a few countries near the Black Sea that use it as a formal name or that language variant and it is unisex.

My name is Sasha and I love it. The one thing I hate more than anything is being mistakenly called Sarah. I also get annoyed with how many people don't know that it's originally a diminutive of Alexander/Alexandra. I've been given the nicknames Sissy, Sash, and Sadie, with Sadie probably being my favorite. I especially love when a character or famous person is written about in a book or newspaper and I can read my name somewhere else, because it's like seeing it with fresh eyes.

My name is Sasha. It's pronounced Say_sha it has a line over the 1st a which makes it a long A. I never liked my name as a little girl but as I got older I loved it more and more. My mom named me after her fav doll. Sasha Alethe.

A is not a gendered letter, in fact, none of them are. Joshua and Ezra are girls names because they end on a? I can't imagine this on a girl, that's probably cause I am Slavic, where it's normal for a guy to have an a ending name.

In Slavic countries, naming a girl Sasha is like naming a girl John or Michael.

In Slavic countries Sasha is a short form of Aleksandra and Aleksandr (I’m a Slav, I know this), so you are wrong, naming a girl Sasha is like naming a girl Alex or Lexi in English-speaking countries.

It's such a shame that political views are being used to make opinions on basically everything else, including names. All we need to do is set politics aside and look at the thing and only that thing itself.
As for this name, I find it quite attractive. I can picture this name perfectly on a wide variety of little girls and older women. Does this mean that I am liberal? No... it just means that I really like this name!

Sasha is a classy and elegant name! I like it more for a girl! I personally wouldn’t name a boy Sasha since it sounds more feminine in my book. But I can still picture any male with the name Sasha because there is something masculine about it! It’s not 100% feminine to me, but it still sounds more like a girl’s name. I still respect the masculine usage.

I have a friend who calls me “Sasha” and I find it very obnoxious and annoying. I’m not sure if it’s because they were raised by people from a culture in which “Sasha” is a boy’s name or not, but it still seems very annoying. I have never met anyone who goes by the name “Sasha, ” regardless of gender.

My name is Alexandra (Sasha). I live in Spain and nobody else has this name. My parents are from Russia (where this name is really popular for both boys and girls). My second cousin is called Alexander so his parents call him Sasha too. Whenever we are in the same room they call him Shurik and in my case is Shura. These two names are used sometimes. I've seen a lot of people commenting that it sounds weird and that boys shouldn't be called Sasha but you just have to get used to it. There is a similar case with the name Andrea. In Spain Andrea is a female name, only meanwhile in Italy it's a male name only.

Sasha Chanoff is an American aid organizer and humanitarian based in Somerville, Massachusetts who is notable for rescuing thousands of refugees in Africa. Chanoff founded a humanitarian assistance organization for refugees, called RefugePoint, which identifies endangered people, often children, generally in Africa, and provides assistance to them. Generally this involves coordinating their resettlement, by providing logistics including food and money, and working with immigration authorities in countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and elsewhere. He enlists the help of the mass media to encourage donations as well as increase public awareness of the numerous problems facing refugees. For example, he was instrumental in getting RefugePoint featured prominently on the American TV news documentary program 60 Minutes in 2013.

Sasha has become a quick favorite of mine. Bold and independent, but still super feminine and sweet, which is surprising coming from a unisex name! I have been having difficulty finding a middle name that works. Some of my favorites are Sasha Isabelle and Sasha Rosalind, but I haven't gotten very far into the middle name process.

For a girl it's cute. For a boy I'm not sure… personally I would not choose a name ending with "a", as it is indeed seen as a female name. No boy likes having a name that people see as a girl's name. Chances are he'll hate it.

In the US, most names ending in -a are feminine. I have seen a few boys but they seemed feminine because of the -a. Girls names ending in -a are common, while boys usually have names ending in other letters. If you live in the United States, don't name a boy this.

I am African from Western Africa. My daughter was born 1st January 2013. I named her Nanette-Sash,a. I wasn't familiar with the name but when she was put to birth, I went online for a search of names. Since I am a Catholic I based my search on meaning. So the meaning: "defender, help to mankind", for Sasha attracted me.

It's a very soft, sweet name. Very pretty. I see it more as feminine, since it is predominantly female in the US where I live, but I respect that it is a traditionally male name in Russia and don't think it sounds bad on a male.

I'm called Sasha as a nickname for Sarah, because they're so close in structure and sound, and I absolutely love it. I love how it's almost a repetition of the first syllable, but the "sh" makes it a different sound, kind of like the name Nina, because the last syllable makes it a non-repetitive name.

My name is Sasha, and as I live in north America, I have only ever seen it used for girls or dogs (why dogs?!). In N. American it is still uncommon enough that I get called Tasha and Natasha instead.
When I went to Europe, people were always very surprised to see that it is the name on my passport and official ID. A few people tried to call me Alexandra. My cousin is named Alexandria, when she was in Turkey everyone kept trying to call her Sasha. We are both quite entertained/annoyed that we get called the other's name.

My daughter was born in August and I named her Sasha. I love it because it's the perfect popularity in the low 200's, is a diminutive of Alexander which is a family name tracing back several generations, and is less common than an Alexandra or Alexis when honoring those Alexanders. However, a word of caution for those considering this as a baby girl's (or any baby's) first name: When said frequently, Sasha becomes a tongue-twister. It often comes out Shasha or Shasa. Looks like I'll be messing up my baby's name for years to come.

Being Russian, I am more used to hearing Sasha as a boys name. I find it a little awkward when it is a girl's name. (Yes, here it can be short for Aleksandr and Aleksandra, but most girls named Aleksandra seem to use "Sanya" for a diminutive. (At least in my city they do!)

I'm not a fan of names that are both masculine and feminine, but Sasha is one of the few that is an exception. I would not however name a son Sasha because of the ridicule he would be subjected to.

Well Pip, that's probably because you're American (just guessing) as it was originally a male name. I love this on a guy, but then again, I kind of like to mix gender names. I wouldn't use this in America because here it really is a very feminine name, but if I happened to be in Russia.

Most of the time an A at the end of a name is feminine in my opinion but Sasha is a really great name for a boy.

I met a very nice guy called Sasha. I also know a girl called Sacha. I think it suits both. Love it.

I find Sasha too feminine-sounding for a boy. In most Western languages, "a" at the end of a name makes it feminine.

I love this as a boy's nickname for Alexander! Most people I know prefer it for girls, though.

I like the name Sasha in it's own right but I prefer it for a girl as I don't think it is very masculine. My cousin is half-Russian and my aunt and uncle wanted a name that translated into both langauges so they chose Alexandra but everyone calls her Sasha and that suits her far better.

A variant, as you can see, is Sashya, pronounced literally "Sash-ya". It is uncommon and normally used in North America.

I don't like this name because it rhymes with my name, Natasha, so when people say Sasha I always respond.

This is one of the few Russian names/nicknames I adore. From the first time I read the name Sasha in a book I was drawn to it.

I found a name meaning also to be "a helpful friend". I have only ever met one human being called Sasha where I live as the rest of the name bearers seem to be dogs. A very popular name to call a female pet dog.
