Mysha is a modern feminine name, emerging as a variant of the Russian diminutive Misha (itself from Mikhail, “Who is like God?”) and subtly adorned with Persian phonetic grace. Pronounced MEE-shuh (/ˈmiʃə/), it unfolds with the quiet poise of a two-syllable ghazal, offering balanced depth in minimal form. US Social Security records trace Mysha’s first entries to the early 1980s, when it climbed to a peak rank of 768 in 1983, and again noted a rise around 2011 with 40 births (rank 907). In 2024, 25 girls received the name, placing Mysha at rank 925—a testament to its steady, niche appeal. It never clamored for mainstream attention, preferring a consistent, understated presence that appeals to parents seeking a name both globally attuned and reliably distinctive.
