History & Origin

Kashious is a modern American respelling built on Cassius, an old Roman family name whose own meaning is not settled. The Kash- opening ties it to the popular Kash sound in current U.S. naming. It is a recent invention rather than an inherited form, so we call the routes uncertain plainly (said 'KASH-us').

It appears only rarely for boys in the U.S. Rare, bold, and modern.

Did you know? Cassius, the Roman name behind Kashious, was borne by an old Roman family and later by Cassius Clay before he became Muhammad Ali. The Kash- spelling is brand new, with routes we note as uncertain.
