That's it really. Sasha's full name would be Alexander.

I also like Wlliam but DH won't consider it!

Reuben. Love Roo as nn when he's a baby!

JollyGolightly · 27/01/2013 08:36

I'd choose Sacha but spell it this way.

muddledsheep · 27/01/2013 08:36

Reuben here too! Mine is 3 and utterly gorgeous :)

AThingInYourLife · 27/01/2013 08:38

Daniel

meditrina · 27/01/2013 08:38

Sasha (this spelling is fine as it follows the standard Cyrillic transliteration)

fall-back: Daniel

Bakingtins · 27/01/2013 08:40

Daniel, but I also like Reuben and Alexander.

soimpressed · 27/01/2013 08:42

Sasha

TheDeadlyDonkey · 27/01/2013 08:42

Reuben or Daniel

StaceymReadyForNumber3 · 27/01/2013 08:43

Ethan but I'm biased!

DizzyHoneyBee · 27/01/2013 08:47

Reuben, not seen too many of those at work recently. We have a handful of Sashas, all girls though - sorry.

TwistAndShout · 27/01/2013 08:48

Reuben,

Definitely not Ethan

botandhothered · 27/01/2013 09:03

Reuben. Only know 1, and he is 14.

gingermcflea · 27/01/2013 09:04

Daniel.
Classic. Good nickname. No spelling issues. Not faddy.

QuietNinjaTardis · 27/01/2013 09:07

Max.

InNeedOfBrandy · 27/01/2013 09:08

Sasha or max

Lavendersbluedillydilly1969 · 27/01/2013 09:18

Reuben here.

NewYearNewHat · 27/01/2013 09:21

Max is definitely the best out of those.

givemeaclue · 27/01/2013 09:24

Hi, for a boy sasha is spelt sacha.

Sasha is the girls spelling

BikeRunSki · 27/01/2013 09:24

Ruben.

IncognitoIsMyFavouriteWord · 27/01/2013 09:30

Reuben love it.

SoggySummer · 27/01/2013 09:31

Rueben.

Sasha is too feminine to me. I know its a non gendered name but my automatic reaction on hearing the name is to assume female first.

gingermcflea · 27/01/2013 09:33

Just couldn't choose Reuben for the spelling issues - the last three posters have each spelt it differently.

Sacha is the Germanic spelling, Sasha is French. The spelling doesn't denote the gender. It's s family name and all the male ancestors were spelt Sasha.
