How do you pronounce Saffia?

Saskia, unless you're Muslim/Asian - Saffia is a very Muslim name imo, though I have to say I've never seen it spelt like that so I'm prepared to be told otherwise.

I love both. I actually think Saffia though.
I don't think it's too 'muslim' fgs. Look at how many Aaliyah's, Aisha/Iysha/Aicha's and Leila's there are!

I've seen Safiya rather than Saffia which I prefer as it doesn't bring to mind a slang word for South Africans as much. Grin
