Meaning & origin

Timia is a modern American name that first appeared in Social Security records in 1969. It reached its peak usage of about 65 births in 2000, making it a rare choice. Since 2001, its use has been falling, reflecting the decline of many similar -ia names. Timia has appeared in no top state lists and has no clear etymology, fitting the pattern of fashionable invented names from the late 20th century.

Timia first appeared in U.S. records in 1969. It may have been formed by taking the popular ending -ia and attaching it to a short, melodic syllable, possibly influenced by names like Tia or Mia. There is no evidence of a pre-existing meaning in any language. Its use has remained rare, with a peak in 2000.
