Iesha (sometimes spelled Ayesha, Aisha, or Isha) has roots in several cultural traditions. The most documented origin is from Arabic Aisha (عائشة), meaning "alive" or "living," which was the name of one of Prophet Muhammad's wives in Islamic history. The spelling variant Iesha became more common in the United States during the latter half of the 20th century, particularly gaining popularity in the 1970s and 1980s. The name's popularity across various spellings demonstrates its phonetic appeal and cross-cultural recognition. The spelling with an initial "I" rather than "A" represents an orthographic adaptation that maintains the original pronunciation. Usage statistics show Iesha reached its peak popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s, appearing consistently in naming records across diverse communities throughout the United States, with particular popularity in southern states.
