Letoya Origin and Meaning

The name Letoya is a girl's name.

Letoya is a feminine name that gained recognition primarily through American R&B singer LeToya Luckett, an original member of Destiny's Child. The name appears to be a modern creation, possibly a variation of Latoya, which combines the popular 'La' prefix with a creative ending. It may also be influenced by Toyota, repurposed as a given name. Letoya has never been widespread but saw modest usage following the singer's rise to fame in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The name has a melodic quality with its fluid vowel sounds and soft consonants. Though uncommon, Letoya offers a distinctive option for parents seeking a modern, musical-sounding name with contemporary cultural connections.
