I have a Saskia May ,nearly didn't read the thread as didn't want to hear anything nasty about it.I first saw it on a painting. I think it was Rembrandts wife's name,quite common for the Dutch i think.

Sasha, not saskia, is a variant of alexandra.

Its great being a saskia (or saskya in my case).

Its constantly being commented on (not that I guess many people would tell you to your face that they hate your name!) and the BB and eastenders notoriety have helped keep its popularity down so it retains its unusal edge whilst reducing the number people who have never heard of it and so insist on calling me sasha.

Of the assumptions above (posh, sloany, big breasted) one of the three is correct.
