History & Origin
Meisha is a modern American name in the wide -isha / -eisha family that flourished late in the twentieth century. Its closest anchors are Aisha β the Arabic name meaning 'living, alive', borne by a wife of the Prophet Muhammad β and the short form Mesha. Meisha reshapes that sound with an M- onset. We read it as a coined variant that carries the Aisha association rather than a direct descendant.
Meisha crested around 1990 and stayed uncommon, part of a large but individually rare group of -isha names. A girl named Meisha then is now in her mid-thirties. It reads as a soft, contemporary two-beat name of its moment, with no distinct revival so far.
