History & Origin
Dajha is a decorative spelling of Daja or Dasha, a modern African American coinage of the 1990s. By coincidence Dasha is also a Russian short form of Daria, from a Persian name meaning 'possessing goodness,' though the American Dajha stands on its own. It reached its small high in the late 1990s.
It stayed rare, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at its peak, so a Dajha from then would be about thirty. It reads as a soft, stylish coinage of its era, at home beside Asha and Raja.
