Why: In The Woods, the dude has an Uncle Sasha who [spoiler alert] was in the KGB. It is now a name for sassy girls, like Natasha "Sasha" Obama, Sasha Fierce, and Sasha Cohen, who is about to take over your TV.
Answer: It comes from the name Alexander! which means "man's defender" or "warrior." Only Russian boys are named Sasha, not girls.

The More You Know: Cody Lambert on "Step by Step" was played by Sasha Mitchell. In Sept. 1995, he was arrested for spousal abuse... BUT it turned out his ex-wife was a dirty drug addict child abuser, and he was defending his 4 kids from her. He was granted full custody, and she was only allowed 5 supervised visits a year. Three cheers for the Code-Man!
