The first name 
Leisha

Leisha is a female first name.

Leisha – one in 100,000!

There’s a good chance that a girl named Leisha in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Leisha in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 girls is named Leisha by her parents. In the ranking of most common girls names in recent years, Leisha ranks at #10,100. That means there are 10,099 more common girls names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Leisha.

Leisha -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Leisha a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Chosen by 143 parents, the name was given most frequently in 1960 – at that time, it ranked #833. It thus experienced its last peak in a world without internet and cell phones, even before the first personal computer was built. (Do you remember? Those were those big boxes that couldn't even begin to do what a simple robot vacuum cleaner can do today). Since Leisha is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their child this unusual name. So, if your name is Leisha, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Leisha was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
