Sasha Farber is clearing the air on the origin of his moniker after Jenn Tran’s ex Devin Strader threw some shade his way.

“The name Sasha is short for Alexander,” the Dancing With the Stars pro, 40, wrote via his Instagram Story on Monday, November 11. “You know who else had the same name, Alexander the Great!!! FYI 😂.”

Farber’s explanation checks out as Ancestry gave a similar account. The genealogy database shared that the name Sasha originates from Russia and is a shortened form of Alexander. It explained that the moniker has become gender-neutral for modern-day use.

Farber’s clapback comes a few days after Strader, 28, made remarks about the dancer’s moniker on social media. On Saturday, November 10, a user replied to Strader’s Instagram post saying, “Jenn found a great guy his name is Sasha.” In response, the Bachelorette alum retorted, “That’s a girls [sic] name.”
