- Comments and insights on the name Dasha
I named my daughter Dasha. Her name is mispronounced often. We typically have to explain it's like Sasha but with a "D". It's my understanding the name is Russian and means "precious". My Dasha is very precious. Her middle name is Claire. Her name is not very popular here in the states but it's my understanding from her foreign doctor that her Russian name is a very popular name.
