What the Data Says About Tiesha

Decade-level aggregation shows that Tiesha performed strongest in the 1980s, accumulating 1,219 births during that ten-year window. Across the 6 decades of recorded activity, Tiesha shows a clear decline from its mid-century high. Geographically, the name is most concentrated in New York, which accounts for 329 births — the largest state-level total in the dataset — followed by Illinois and Texas. In total, SSA state-level files list Tiesha in 22 of the 51 U.S. reporting jurisdictions.

No etymological entry is currently available for Tiesha 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 2,849 total represents a lower bound — actual usage may be higher in years or states where the count fell below the disclosure floor.
