History & Origin

Kimetha shows no older lineage; its first record and small peak both fall around nineteen-fifty-five, marking it as an original coinage of the decade.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at most, and its run ended by the mid-seventies. A girl named Kimetha at that peak would be about seventy today. The name reads as a made elaboration of Kim.

Did you know? The -etha ending gave mid-century America names like Aretha and Bernetha; Kimetha borrows it to lengthen the brisk little Kim, turning a nickname into something more formal-sounding.
