But you're called Alexandra, aren't you? Where's "Shasha" contained or shortened in "Alexandra"? haha
It's one of my favorite names both for girl and boy, Alejandro and Alejandra (or with X, Alexandr@)... I wish I was called Alejandro
my boss likes to do that. In Russia it's a very er...where are my English words when they are needed... 'not rare' name. It's Alexandra for a girl and Alexandr for a boy, but Sasha suits for both. I don't know why there is a lot of variation for the names in my country, you just can't be only Alexandr, anyone can calls you Shurik for example, it's informal.
