Meaning and history
Nikeisha is a modern feminine name used especially in African American and Caribbean communities. It appears to combine the familiar name element Ni- or Nikki with Keisha, but its formation varies and it has no single established ancient translation. Keisha itself developed in modern English, sometimes as a shortened form of Lakeisha. Claims connecting Nikeisha directly with the Greek goddess Nike or a specific African word are not reliably established. Prominent exact-spelling bearers are limited.
