It's a little strange. I have a friend whose middle name is "Sakkie" and is supposed to come from this name. I've never heard of anybody being named this!

I love this name! It sounds good and has an amazing meaning.
This name is a little too long for my taste, but it's overall a nice name. I know an Evangelos, but until recently few people knew his real name, for everyone calls him "Vaggeli", and he's registered as Vaggeli at the school. How's that for a nickname?
