Sava (name)
Sava is a common male personal name in south Slavic languages, and is also used in Romanian. Perhaps the most famous example is the Serbian medieval prince turned monk Saint Sava. In Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sava could also be a female name, a result of the tradition of naming female children after rivers - in this case, after the river Sava. Saba is a popular Georgian variant.People
