Lasha — girls' name

What the Data Says About Lasha

The Social Security Administration has registered 1,033 babies named Lasha between 1966 and 2012, spanning 47 consecutive years of U.S. birth records. As a girl's name, Lasha currently falls outside the top 1,000 girls' names for 2012. The name reached its historical peak in 1991, when 59 babies received it in a single year.

Decade-level aggregation shows that Lasha performed strongest in the 1980s, accumulating 366 births during that ten-year window. Across the 6 decades of recorded activity, Lasha shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in Illinois, which accounts for 16 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by California and Pennsylvania. In total, SSA state-level files list Lasha in 10 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Lasha in our reference dataset. These figures derive from SSA's annual national and state-level name files, which include any name appearing at least five times in a given year or state-year; names below that threshold are suppressed for privacy and therefore excluded from the totals shown here. The 1,033 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
