Daisha

Meaning of Daisha

Daisha, pronounced DAY-shuh, is a warm, modern name that first began shimmering in American birth records in the early 1970s. Often imagined as a creative twist on the classic Arabic Aisha—meaning “alive” or “life”—Daisha has since carved out its own identity, like sunshine slipping through a new window. Its gentle rise through the charts, peaking in the mid-1990s (around 310 newborns and a rank near 558), and settling most recently at about 30 babies in 2024 (rank 920), tells a story of steady charm rather than fleeting fame. With its lively, hopeful associations and just a touch of stylish flair, Daisha offers families a name that feels both rooted in tradition and brimming with fresh promise.
