I love it! But I am Dutch and grew up with quite a few Saskias!!

Lovely name, wish I had used it for dd.

I like it but DH vetoed it on the grounds its very posh and sloaney.

Vanessa Feltz has a dd called Saskia as does a friend of miNe. I wouldn't think it hinders credibility - is a nice name. I remember that Saskia in BB and that loathesome Maxwell she hooked up with

Hah, just last week, I read a health article in the papers and the person conducting the research was a Dr Saskia-something, and ... unconsiously and unintentionally ... I 'discounted' the credibility. Something about the name that screams 'don't take me seriously'. Maybe something to do with that awful character from Big Brother too.
