Saskia?

[Donutdelli]

Pretty certain on it would just like to hear others opinions! Try not to be too brutal, just a simple 'not keen' will do

Im kinda "meh" about it. I dont think " omg no way" but nor do I think "Ohhh lovely"

I love it. Always think of Rembrandts wife

Like it.

Love it!

Really nice.

Not kean!

I love it! It was on my shortlist for DD

Go for it! I chose it and have been supremely happy with decision. It is strong, fun, euro chic! Unusual enough for her to be the only one in her nursery / class / school. Sassy a fabulous nickname too.

Very much doubt this. I know several.

No strong feelings about it as a name, though!

Really like it.

Sounds a little bit European and sophisticated to me, similar to Francesca, Anoushka, Ines, Sasha, Lucia.

I like it. But I do think it sounds a bit European rather than English if that matters.

Not keen

Saskia is a perfectly nice name which feels a bit ‘Essex girl’ to me. She probably works as a hairdresser or beautician and dreams of marrying a footballer. Maybe she sells cosmetics in a department store. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, of course.

@Jsmith99 you're right

Love it, it just sounds great when you say it!

I love it.

Not my personal taste, but it's quite pretty. And i knew a lovely Saskia a long time ago so that makes the name nicer for me.

I don’t really like it but at 0.01% yes they seen statistically extremely likely to be the only one in a class of 30....or year group of 100....or school of 1000.....

@Jsmith99 that’s exactly the vibe I hear too

Beautiful name

Not mad on it for the same reasons given above. I prefer Sasha but that can be a boys name in Eastern Europe as far as I n ow

Oh my fave! If i had a daughter tomorrow she would be called Saskia. Its beautiful.

Not keen

I have an 8yo Saskia, and have received so many lovely comments about her name.

For me it's a name that suits all ages, it's strong and feminine.

It's unusual enough without being "out there" and every one can pronounce it.

8 years on and I still love it!

It was my absolute number one for years. Now I’m actually pregnant, I’ve heard it too often to be comfortable using it. I’m also afraid it has maybe gone a bit ‘glamour model-ly’ or ‘Essex bird-y’...so I’ve been put right off ☹️

Back to the drawing board....
