Dejai
Dejai Origin and Meaning
Dejai is a contemporary feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a creative variation of names like Deja (which comes from the French phrase 'déjà vu' meaning 'already seen') with an added 'i' ending. Alternatively, it could be a novel spelling of D.J. (traditionally a nickname for various names beginning with these letters) adapted as a standalone name. The name might also draw inspiration from Sanskrit-derived names like Jai (meaning 'victory'). Dejai began appearing in naming records in the late 20th century but remains relatively uncommon. The name has a modern, mellifluous quality with its two syllables and vowel ending. Its flexible pronunciation possibilities (either 'deh-JAY' or 'DAY-jai') add to its appeal as a distinctive contemporary name.
