Keisha is a feminine name of primarily Hebrew origin. As a modern variation of Keziah, Keisha inherits its meaning of "cassia" or "cinnamon" in reference to the spice tree. Far from just a figure of sweet tastes and vibrant energy, Keziah surfaces in the Old Testament as one of Job's three daughters. Having received an inheritance from her father at a time when such practices were unusual, Keziah is embraced by many as a symbol of female equality. Embodying beauty, depth, and balance, Keisha is an encouraging name for baby that packs a powerful punch.
