Moniqua is a feminine name with French origins. It is a variation of the name Monique, and both names are pronounced as moh-NEE-kwah (/moˈniːkwə/) in English. The name Moniqua has been given to baby girls in the United States since at least the 1970s, although its popularity has fluctuated over the years. In recent decades, it has been less commonly used, but still remains an option for parents seeking a unique and distinctive name for their daughter.
