History & Origin

Tashara is an American coinage that builds on Tasha, the short form of Natasha (a Russian form of Natalia, 'born on Christmas Day'). The added -ara ending was fashionable in the later twentieth century, generating flowing, rhythmic girls' names. Tashara reads as one of these inventive elaborations rather than a traditional name.

It crested near sixty girls a year around 1990 and clustered in that period. A woman given it at its peak would be in her thirties now, and it reads as a datable late-century coinage with a soft, three-beat sound.

Did you know? Tashara stretches the familiar Tasha into a fuller, three-beat name — part of a nineteen-eighties fashion for -ara and - isha endings that spun everyday nicknames into elaborate new names.
