Give Sasha a notebook that's unmistakably hers. Sasha's Notebook has her name in elegant script over a pink watercolor apple blossom cover.
Behind the Name calls Sasha the Russian and Ukrainian diminutive of Aleksandr or Aleksandra, and says it is used for boys and girls alike. Wikipedia adds that it began among Slavic peoples as a short form of Alexander and Alexandra. In the United States, it says, the name is almost exclusively used for girls. A Sasha is, at heart, an Alexandra with a friendlier face.
Behind the Name’s family tree for Sasha runs through Alexandra, with English short forms such as Lexi and Sandy, and the Dutch and French spellings Sascha and Sacha. Wikipedia lists even more spellings, including Saša, Sasza and Sasja. Alexandra is the full-length option for formal occasions.
Wikipedia’s list of Sashas includes Sasha Alexander, born in 1973, an American actress, and Sasha Banks, born in 1992, an American professional wrestler now known as Mercedes Mone. It also names Sasha Velour, born in 1987, a drag queen best known for RuPaul’s Drag Race, and the DJ Sasha, born in 1969.
Sasha never appeared in a Social Security top-200 decade table, from the 1880s to the 2010s. Behind the Name’s US chart has it in the top 1,000 for 54 years between 1972 and 2025, best at 147th in 1988 and 683rd in 2025. Belgium ranked it 198th in 2025, and France last ranked it 201st for girls in 2024.
Wikipedia lists Sasha Fierce as the alter ego of Beyonce, and Sasha as a Labrador dog that served in the British Army from 2004 to 2008. It also notes that the name is rarely recorded on birth certificates in Russia and Ukraine, because it is seen as a diminutive rather than a formal name.
Sasha’s Notebook works just as well for a teenager as for a grandmother. It’s 6" x 9", which fits in most bags, with 160 lined pages and no printed layout to work around. Use it as a diary, a school notebook, a planner or a place to collect quotes and ideas. A name on the cover turns an everyday notebook into something personal.
A plain notebook is useful. One with her name on it is a gift. Seeing “Sasha’s Notebook” on the cover tells Sasha it was chosen for her, not grabbed off a shelf, and that small touch is often what makes people keep a notebook going instead of abandoning it after a week.
How big is Sasha’s Notebook? 6" x 9", or about 15.2 x 22.9 cm. It’s a paperback with 160 lined pages inside.
