Kasja

Kasja is a girl’s name with various origins across Europe. It is a Serbian and Croatian variation of Kasija and the Polish form of Kasjusz. Kasija and Kasjusz derive from the name Cassia, the feminine form of the Ancient Latin and Etruscan name Cassius. Cassius means “metal helmet” and “empty.” Two famous Americans carried the name Cassius Clay. The first was an avid abolitionist from Kentucky who founded the antislavery publication The American. The second changed his name to Muhammad Ali and became one of the most successful boxers of all time. Baby Kasja will have these great role models to admire as they blaze their own trail in the world.
