Meaning & origin
Tishana is an uncommon name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1971, during a period of creative name formation in African American communities. It never entered the top 1000, with its highest usage occurring in 1990. Since then, usage has remained stable at very low levels, with no recorded births in many recent years. The name has no known etymology outside of modern coinage, and its lack of historical roots makes it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a truly rare name. No states recorded notable usage of Tishana in any year.
The name Tishana first appeared in the United States in 1971, likely as a modern invented name. It may be derived from the name Tisha, a short form of Tishia or Latisha, combined with the popular suffix -ana. No historical or linguistic roots in older languages have been attested.
