Tamekia Origin and Meaning

The name Tamekia is a girl's name.

Tamekia emerged as a distinctive name in the United States during the latter half of the 20th century. It appears to be a modern creation that may have developed as a variation of names like Tamika or Tameka, possibly with the addition of the feminine '-ia' suffix common in many naming traditions. The element 'Tam-' appears in various names across different cultures, sometimes related to the name Thomas (of Aramaic origin meaning 'twin'). Tamekia gained modest popularity during the 1970s and 1980s but has declined in usage since then. The name exemplifies the creative naming patterns that developed in the United States during this period, where distinctive suffixes and prefixes were added to create new variants of existing names.
