Sava is a male personal name in South Slavic languages. Perhaps the most famous example is the Serbian medieval prince turned monk Saint Sava.[1] In Croatia, Sava is found as a male name among the Serbs and also as a female name among the Croats,[2] likewise in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a result of the tradition of naming female children after rivers – in this case, after the river Sava.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
