Keshika

Spiky but pretty in sound, Keshika has its origins in both Sanskrit and Hebrew, making it a rare choice that also crosses cultures.

As a Sanskrit name, it is used in Sri Lanka and India, where it is derived from the element keshah meaning "hair", and ik meaning "one". Together, the name is interpreted as meaning "one with beautiful hair."

From its Hebrew origins, Keshika ultimately could derive from the Biblical Keziah, most likely via the more recent creation of Keisha, which was popular in the 70s.

Pronounced kuh-SHEE-kuh.
