Baby Names

Middle name help for Sasha

So I've gotten great feedback on here for our name choice which has been Sasha Helene

Though, I'm feeling not quite set on the middle name. When I say it out loud, I don't know, something just doesn't quite do it for me. 

Helene is supposed to be for my Grandmother Helen. She was from Finland and very proud of her heritage, so I thought of maybe calling this baby Sasha Fin (lastnamesoundslike) Capelli

What do you think? Any other MN name suggestions to go with  Sasha with a nod towards grandmother Helen Eleanor from Finland?

  • Sasha Helene. 

    IMO, I think you need a really feminine mn with Sasha. Though I would think "girl" when I heard it, I know of a lot of people, namely Russians, who would think it's a boy.

    I know a Sasha Margaret.  

  • Agreed on Sasha Helene.  I really kinda like Sasha as a girl name!

  • I really like Sasha Helene.  I might get flamed for this, but if you really, really want to use a Finland reference instead of her name then I'd just use Finland.  A place name rings a little better than a half word or a male name (Finn), especially with Sasha as pp pointed out.  

    There are also a lot of variations of Helene and Eleanor.

    Helene:  Elena, Helena, Elin, Helen, Ellen

    Eleanor:  Eleanora, Lenore, Nell, Nellie, Elle, Nonie, Nora(h), Noreen, Ellen.

  • I don't really like the flow of Sasha Helene and I think Sasha Fin looks odd (and cutting the name of a country short to honour your grandmother's heritage just kind of sounds funny to me).

    What about using a Finnish name in the mn spot? I just looked up some Finnish girl names and found Laine. I like the sound of that. Sasha Laine.
