Dasha
About Dasha
An energetic — dare we say dashing — Russian diminutive of Darya that hasn't caught on in the same way as Sasha has in the English speaking world.
Singer Dasha (born Anna Dasha Novotny) , actress, podcaster, and filmmaker Dasha Nekrasova, and model and influencer Dasha Taran are all notable bearers.
Pronounced DAHSH-uh.
As of October 2026, Dasha ranked #2128 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #1254 in 1995.
