What is the meaning of the name Sashah ?

The baby name Sashah is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈsæʃə/ or /ˈsɑːʃə/ (SAH-shə or SASH-uh).

Sashah is Slavic in Origin.

Sashah is a modern, stylistic spelling of Sasha, the Slavic hypocoristic of Aleksandr/Aleksandra, ultimately from Greek Alexandros (alexo “to defend” + aner/andros “man”). It therefore carries the meaning “defender (of mankind).” Usage is unisex: in Russia and much of Eastern Europe Sasha is chiefly masculine, while in the United States and the UK it skews feminine; France favors Sacha for boys, and Germany uses Sascha predominantly for men.

Originally a familiar nickname, Sasha became an independent given name across Europe and the diaspora in the 19th–20th centuries and spread globally via literature, film, and pop culture. Sashah preserves the same sound while adding a terminal h, an Anglophone embellishment akin to Sarah or Noah. Related forms include Sasha, Sacha (French), Sascha (German), Saša (South Slavic), and Sasja (Dutch/Scandinavian); formal counterparts are Alexander and Alexandra.
