Teesha
Teesha Origin and Meaning
Teesha is a feminine name that likely developed as a diminutive or variant form of names like Latisha, Letitia, or Keisha. The name emerged in American naming patterns primarily in the 1970s and gained modest popularity through the 1990s. Letitia, one possible root name, derives from the Latin 'laetitia' meaning 'joy' or 'happiness,' suggesting Teesha might carry similar connotations. The distinctive double 'e' spelling creates a unique visual identity while maintaining the soft 'ee' sound. As a standalone name, Teesha has a melodic quality with the stress on the first syllable. While never among the most common names in the United States, it represents creative naming patterns that developed during the late 20th century and continues to see occasional usage.
