Marquisha
Meaning of Marquisha
Marquisha (/mɑrˈkiːʃə/) is a late-20th-century American feminine name that fuses the French-derived title marquis (“noble”) with the popular –isha ending, while its opening element Mar subtly echoes the Spanish word for “sea,” adding a Latin inflection. California birth data from 1984 to 1995 show Marquisha maintaining a steady presence in the mid-300s on the state’s popularity charts: its highest annual count of 17 newborns occurred in both 1992 and 1993, with other years recording between 5 and 12 registrations. The name’s blend of traditional nobility, modern creativity and cultural resonance—particularly within Afro-Latino and multicultural communities—has made it an appealing choice for parents seeking a distinctive yet accessible option.
