Lakaysha Origin and Meaning

The name Lakaysha is a girl's name.

Lakaysha is a feminine given name that appears to have emerged in the United States during the late 20th century. The name likely combines the popular prefix "La-" (meaning "the" in French and Spanish) with a variation of Keysha/Keisha, which itself may be a variation of names like Kecia or an Anglicized form of the Irish name Ceasha. The name demonstrates the creative combining of elements and distinctive spelling patterns that became popular in American naming practices from the 1970s onward. Lakaysha peaked in usage during the 1990s but remains relatively uncommon. This name represents contemporary naming innovations that combine recognizable prefixes with established name elements to create distinctive, melodic combinations.
