Tinisha is a female first name.
Recently, the name Tinisha has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Tinisha. That means that a girl named Tinisha is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Tinisha.
Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Tinisha. Girls named Tinisha have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it a few years ago: At No. 1,582 Tinisha ranked higher than ever before in 1980. By comparison, there have been 110 years in which the first name Tinisha has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their daughters Tinisha only once in a blue moon, so girls and women with this name can consider themselves exceptional!
In years where the graph has no value, the name Tinisha was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
The odds of living in the same statae as someone named Tinisha are about the same as meeting someone with blue eyes in the entire country – both odds are about 25 to 30 %. More precisely, the first name Tinisha is registered in 12 states, among which are California, Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan or Mississippi. In proportion to the female population, most women and girls with the first name Tinisha live in Illinois, and even there the name is rather special – only one in 137,613 would turn around if you called the name Tinisha across Illinois.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter T is a quite popular first letter for girls' names. Because: 6.3% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters for girls’ names are A, S and M.
With seven letters, the name Tinisha has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight letters or more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
With 6.3% of all girls' names that begin with a T, this first letter is thus much more common than all 26 letters on average - and the most popular one of all the girls’ names starting with T is Teresa.
If your name is Tinisha and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
