History & Origin

Natosha is a spelling of Natasha, the warm Russian short form of Natalia, from Latin natalis, 'birthday' — traditionally the birth of Christ, hence 'born at Christmas'. The middle-o spelling is an American period variation on the standard Natasha.

A girl named Natosha at its 1986 high is now nearing forty. It reads mid-eighties and has not revived; Natasha and Natalie remain the familiar forms. The respelling shifts the look without changing the sound, so it mainly invites a spelling clarification.

Did you know? Natosha peaked in 1986, during the American vogue for Natasha and its many respellings that followed the name's spread through film and dance.
