Tashena
Meaning of Tashena
The feminine appellation Tashena, rendered phonetically in English as /təˈʃiːnə/, has emerged within the late twentieth-century Anglo-American onomastic landscape as a neologistic derivative of the diminutive Tasha—itself rooted in the Russian form Natasha, whose etymology conveys ‘born on Christmas’—and further elaborated by the suffix -ena, which confers a rhythmic elongation aligned with prevailing anglophone naming conventions; although its Slavic antecedent carries liturgical connotations, Tashena’s semantic profile within the United States remains secular and stylistically oriented. Empirical analyses of U.S. Social Security Administration data reveal that, while Tashena has never ascended into the top 500 female given names, its annual incidence has persisted at a modest level since the mid-1970s, with recorded birth frequencies typically ranging between six and twenty-six and corresponding national ranks predominantly within the 700–900 interval, thereby underscoring both its relative rarity and its enduring presence in American naming practice.
