Did the DJ Sasha's name choice have anything to do with this man?

Not one bit.

Sasha, real name Alexander Coe, was named after the charachter Alexander in the novel Dr. Zhivago. Sasha's mom was mad for Russian authors, and decided to name him after the charachter in the book. Sasha is a Russian nickname for Alexander. In a sense, Sasha is his real name...

"It`s my real name, short for Alexander. Russian short for Alexander. My mother was mad about Dr Zhivago and my father was into Russian authors. All my family call me Sasha."

No drug references in his name whatsoever. Drug references in DJ names went the way of good trance music in the late 1990s.

The guys from the Crystal Method probably disagree with you.
