Rasheeda hums with sunshine and spice – a female name pronounced ruh-SHEE-duh (/rəˈʃiːdə/) that springs from the Arabic word for “rightly guided,” a guiding star of wisdom and warmth. It struts through the kaleidoscope of Latin street carnivals, sashaying to Caribbean drums and whispering promises of insight at every fiesta. In New Jersey from the late ’70s to the early ’90s, proud parents couldn’t help but cheer its rise, keeping it firmly in the top 162 as it twirled through the charts like a ballroom queen. If you’re craving a name that delivers soul, swagger and a touch of sun-drenched magic, Rasheeda is already center stage.
