Meaning & Origin
Kenisha is a girl's and boy's baby name, a modern American name popular particularly in African American communities — possibly a creative feminine form of Kenneth (from the Scottish Gaelic Coinneach, meaning 'handsome, comely') with the -isha suffix, or an invented name.
Kenisha has the melodic, feminine quality of names like Keisha and Tanisha that were especially popular in the 1970s-1990s. It carries warmth, rhythm, and the cultural pride of a naming tradition that creates beautiful, individual names.
