Aishia Origin and Meaning

The name Aishia is a girl's name.

Aishia is a feminine name that appears to be a variation of Aisha, which has Arabic origins meaning 'alive' or 'prosperous.' Aisha was the name of one of Prophet Muhammad's wives who was known for her intelligence and contribution to Islamic tradition. The variant spelling Aishia emerged particularly in African-American communities in the late 20th century, reflecting a trend toward distinctive spellings of traditional names. While maintaining the melodic sound and cultural significance of the original, this spelling creates a unique identity. The name carries connotations of vitality, wisdom, and spiritual connection that appeal to parents seeking names with both cultural depth and contemporary style.
