Meaning & origin
Kiasha is a rare modern name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1974. Its peak year was 1993, though it has never ranked among the top 1,000 names. Since the 1990s, its trajectory has been stable, with very few uses each year. Kiasha is almost exclusively given to girls. The name's origins are unclear, but it likely follows a pattern of invented names ending in the fashionable suffix -sha, seen in Aisha and Keisha. Its rarity means it has no top states or notable famous bearers, making it a distinctive choice.
