If you like that sound, perhaps you'd also like the Russian name Zoya? It's got quite a similar sound but transcends the occupation name trend which may feel dated going forward.
I believe Zoya is a variant of Zoe, "life". I do have to admit that meaning is quite a bit more attractive to me than the one for Sawyer:
1: one who is employed to saw wood 2: any of several beetles whose larvae bore holes in dead or dying trees especially conifers
