History & Origin

Natajah is a late-twentieth-century American coinage. It joins a Na- opening, echoing Natasha and Natalie, to a -tajah element related to Taja and the word 'taj,' crown. Names shaped this way were an individualizing trend, and Natajah is one of its rarer forms.

It was never common, given to only about sixteen girls a year at its peak around 1998. A girl named Natajah then is in her twenties or thirties today.

Did you know? Natajah blends the sound of Natasha with the -tajah element seen in names like Taja, a creative combination that American families favored in the nineteen-nineties.
