Saskia

Saskia is a girl’s name with multiple origins. In Germany and the Netherlands, it evolved as a form of Saxia, which means “a Saxon.” It is also rooted in the Germanic word sahsa, which means "knife." Saskia may also be a variant of the Russian and Slavic name Sasha, short for the Greek Alexandra, which means “protector of mankind.” Whichever meaning you prefer, this name has a lovely sibillant sound and a timeless feel that makes it an excellent choice for baby.
