Meaning & origin
Artemisa, a Spanish variant of Artemisia, has a history of modest but steady use in the United States since its first recorded occurrence in 1911. It reached its peak popularity in 1928, and after a long period of decline, it has been rising again since 2020. In 2025, it ranked 10,917, meaning roughly 1 in 200,908 baby girls received the name. While it is not a top name in any state, its gentle revival suggests a growing appreciation for this mythological and botanical name.
Artemisa is a Spanish form related to Artemisia, itself from the Greek name Artemis, the goddess of the hunt. The name has been in occasional use in Spanish-speaking countries since at least the early 20th century.
