Meaning & origin
Tikisha is a modern invented name that first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1971. It reached its peak usage in 1977, though exact rank data is not available because it never entered the top 1,000. The name's trajectory has been stable but rare, with only a handful of births per year. It is most often used for girls and fits a style of similar coinages from the 1970s, such as Keisha and Latisha. No top states are recorded, indicating broad but low-level usage across the country.
Tikisha appears to be a modern coinage, likely formed in the United States during the 1970s. It may have been inspired by similar-sounding names like Tisha or Keisha, combined with a fashionable suffix. No known historical or linguistic derivation exists.
