In America this name is mainly feminine. I’ve never met a male Sasha other than a young man from Russia.
In my experience, Americans use it on girls, and Russians use it on boys.
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.
In Slavic countries, naming a girl Sasha is like naming a girl John or Michael.
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.
My name is Aleksandra but I have always been called Sasha. I am from England and my family is known for having either unusual names or ridiculously long names. I my full name is Aleksandra Louise Mackenzie Edwards. My mum called me Aleksandra because she had a Russian friend who was going to call her child Sasha but she unfortunately had a miscarriage. I do like my nickname Sasha and I have never met a person with the same.
The name is also English, but I've only ever heard it on women.
I think I'm one of the few Sasha females in Italy... People here consider it (and they're wrong) a name for males only!
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!)
This name is popular among young Asian parents.
