Areesha (pronounced uh-REE-shuh, /əˈriːʃə/) is a feminine name of Arabic origin whose literal meaning conveys “protected by God” and suggests the freshness of a gentle breeze. In the United States, it entered the Social Security Administration’s top 1,000 in 2001, peaked at number 892 in 2002, and currently ranks 944th in 2024 with six newborns registered. Its smooth, three-syllable cadence has resonated beyond Arabic-speaking families, finding particular favor within Hispanic communities that appreciate its fluid phonetics and multicultural appeal. By blending Middle Eastern heritage with Latin-American flair, Areesha offers modern parents an elegant choice symbolizing both divine guardianship and serene grace.
