Sancha is a girl's name as pure as the morning sunlight, promising a life filled with grace and blessings. This moniker can trace its roots back to the Latin sanctus, meaning "sacred," and was often used in religious contexts for making something holy. Its male counterpart, Sancho, appeared in the Spanish novel Don Quixote as a loyal, humorous, and wise companion to the main protagonist. Sancho Panza's daughter is called María Sancha, a name that seems to be fashioned from her father's and likely led to the rise of Sancha in Spain. Humble and kind, your little Sancha is sure to voyage out on their own adventures!
