Glynisha Origin and Meaning

The name Glynisha is a girl's name.

Glynisha appears to be a modern constructed name combining elements from different naming traditions. The prefix "Glyn-" may derive from the Welsh element meaning "valley" (seen in names like Glyn or Glenn), while the suffix "-isha" appears in various feminine names and may have Persian origins (as in Marisha) or represent a creative feminine ending. This combination creates a distinctive contemporary name. Documented usage begins in the late 20th century in the United States, though it remains relatively uncommon. Glynisha exemplifies the modern trend of combining recognizable name elements to create unique personal names. The name likely follows the pronunciation pattern of "glih-NEE-shah," though regional variations may exist.
