"My name is KEISHA. I am 22 and African American. My name is Pronounced as, ?Key-shuh.? And yes, every single substitute teacher I had in school pronounced it as that white singer with the same name but weird pronouciation lol. Everybody in middle school called me, Keyshia Cole lol. I like this name because like others, it?s unique and I?ve only came into contact on social media with a couple. A girl at my elementary school that I had classes with actually had the same name as me and coincidentally, my mom knew her mom before we even knew each other." Jun. 6, 2018:

"Naming a white girl a black girl name is going to raise heads and make things awkward for her. Also i think we turn out to look as beautiful as our name implies, people named Butch turn out to be ugly, people named john turn out to be manly (i won't explain why, but sometimes this doesn't apply thats why you hear the turn of phrase "you look more like a john or billy than a xxxxx") So yeah people do indeed turn out to look like their name and how they are treated. People named keshia turn out to be fair skinned, long hair, and assertive in personality or strong is emotion but hide it. I would reccomend this name for cultures that represent these traits." Mar. 3, 2010:

"I agree with the comment left on April the 3rd, "My name is Kesha, and I am Indian. I've always gone through issues with my name. Since I was young everyone said it was a African American name and not a suitable name for a Indian girl. In class, when teachers would role call for attendance, whenever they would come to my name they would stare at every other girl in the room but me, even if I would have my hand waving wildly. There were many points in my life when I absolutely hated my name because I didn't think it suited me, I mean I always thought it was a ghetto name, but now, as I am older, and much more mature, I really love it. I thank my mum for naming Kesha, although I am not so sure how she came up with the name since we were not living in the States when I was born. Just remember your name does not define you, you define your name. In Hindi, Kesha is the female name to Krishna, and it does mean long hair. Long hair, to me signifies beauty in a female, and my dads name is Krishna and I am blessed to be named after him (how many girls can say that!). KESHA IS NOT GHETTO. Kesha is a beautiful female, with exotic looks who not only is the essence of beauty but the essence of intelligence. She is unlike anything anyone has ever met." My name is Kesha, and it is pronounced kesha, not keesha, sound it out, like you do inn spanish." Apr. 17, 2009:
"My name is spelled Kesia but pronounced Keshia. I've only met one person who's name was is Kesia but she was a stranger. lol And I know for sure that "Kesia" is a rare name just because i've never found anyone else's name spelled this way. Yall know Kesha , Keesha, Keisha, Keyshia, etc. are common. So yeh.. lol" Apr. 12, 2009:
"MY NAME IS KISHA AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! AND THE SPELLING! WE'RE ALL SO LUCKY AREN'T WE?! :)" Apr. 12, 2009:

"My name is KESHA and my mother thought she made it up. some people spell there name like me but i never heard someone pronounce it the same way until today when i realized the girl singing with flo rida has the name Kesha and pronounces just like me! crazy!" Mar. 16, 2009:

"My name is KESHA and my dad named me this. He claims it is from a commerical from when he was young a polish sausage commerical and song "who stole the Kesha?" I love my name and I wish people would not make it so hard to say and video people and rappers PLEASE get some other girls with different names I am a strong black woman "A beatiful woman"-Raheem Divine that is my theme song. Big ups to the KESHA's spelled like just like that. Anything else is a cover up-Bokesha, Markesha, lakesha:)" Nov. 11, 2008:
"my name is Keshia it is so hard to find other people with the same name as keshia. if their names are keshia it is spelled differently. i have a friend from drum practice her name is keshia but its spelled like kesha. For every certificates i get for school they spelled my name as keisha. but i relly like the name keshia. ty mommy and daddy lol love ya" Sep. 30, 2008:
"my name is Lakesha. No one can spell it right. I will say that it's spelled plain and simple and they'll add "ee", or "i" I mean it's spelled as it sounds, and they can always read it right, but no one can spell it right off the dome. My aunt used to spell it "Lekesha" and I've lived with her since I was born. I love my name, and I'll never change it. Like my friends said, "Whether we call you by your favorite nickname, Kesha or by Lakesha, you'll always be unique, just like your name." And I think Kesha, and Lakesha are actually names that sound classy...my brother's name is Keshawn, and we wonder why our names were connected like this, but he's my only brother, and just like my name and myself, I am the only "L" in my family of siblings. The others are "K" I thank my mother for my name, and in her memory and because of my pride, I won't change it...everyone with the name Kesha,Lakesha or anything containing Kesha... represent!
Much Luv Ppl!" Sep. 18, 2008:

"My name is Kesha, its rhymes with 'pressure'. No one can ever say it or spell it right...but im working on being more assertive so they do!
I'm from NZ and am the only person there I've ever met with my name, people often get in confused with the NZ actress Keisha Castle Hughes.
My mum also got it from Keshia from the Bill Cosby show, she thought she invented it by changing it to kesha but obviously not!

Arabic - Alive & Well
African - The favourite one
Russian - blessing" Jul. 15, 2008:
"I love the name. Most people just think "oh kesha that's just a ghetto name" but i think otherwise not just because my name is Kesha. It's just a great name. Other people put la,i,ie,eyshia. I think you should just leave Kesha." Jul. 9, 2008:
"I Love the name Kesha. Everytime someone write my name they put an "I" in it and have to correct them quickly. My name is Takesha but I only use Kesha. I don't know to many Kesha without the "I" in their name." Jul. 4, 2008:
"I love the name Keshia simply because thats my name and i rarely ever meet someone with the name keshia and if i do its not spelled like mines ususally. i think it is a short and sweet name that every one can handle and i like the way i write me name. lol My mom actually named me Keshia from the girl off of The Cosby Show Rudy. her real name is Keshia Knightpullium and she spells it the same way as mines. I guess thats what she can base my name off of. lol But i would never change my name its beautiful just like me." Apr. 9, 2008:

"My name is Kesha and I love it! I spell it KESHA. Most poeple want to throw an ei, ie,ia,i around in it. People usually do misspell my name - I think KESHA is the simplistic way ... short and sweet. The name has so much character to it." Mar. 27, 2008:

But throught out its great to see that many people confuse my name because at least they remember who i am!!! (only if you know what i mean)" Feb. 15, 2008:
"I'm 25 years old, and according to my mother my name was actually intended to be "Keisha", but it was misspelled on my birth certificate. For many years I thought my name was Keisha, and spelt it as such. About 10 years ago, my mother informed me of the misspelling on my birth certificate. From that point on, I began using the correct spelling, the way it appeared, "Kesha". I love the name. I've never met anyone else with it. I think its absolutely unique! And so am I." Jan. 29, 2008:

"my friends name is kesha..but its spelt keschia but she changed it to kesha cause she didnt like the way it was spelt. so yeah byeee." Oct. 30, 2007:
"I like my name. I don't like having to spell it to make sure it's not spelled like Keshia or Keisha or Keysha, any other variation thereof. For the the reader who wrote her mom spelled it different from Keisha Knight-Pulliam. I think most of our mothers thought they were doing something original. My mother thought she was being orginal because she never heard "our" name. I end up meeting a another Kesha that was a couple of years older than me when I was in elementary school; nonetheless to say I'm in my mid-thirties now... :-)
Oh yeah, the Indian young lady...love the Sanskrit meaning...KT in Atlanta." Oct. 26, 2007:

"I LOVE my name. I do get the misspellings (as Keisha is the most common way), but I personally love this variation. Sometimes people attempt to pronounce it with a short e sound instead of a long e, but I just correct them and move on. My parents named me after a little girl they met once who was always cheerful and smiling. I may not be the most bubbly person around, but I like to think I'm pretty positive. I definitely wouldn't change my name if I had the opportunity. I like it just as it is." Oct. 2, 2006:

"Kesha, pronounced with a short e.
I named my daughter after ambulance service in Nashville,TN.,called Resha. I dropped the R. This was in 1979.I would always correct people,when they pronounced it with long e. I named her younger brother Kevin. Can't people see that it's the same. We don't pronounce Kevin with a long e!
