Comments for KEISHA:

I just love the name. My daughter's name is Keisha but I spelt it KEESHA.

In the Swahili dictionary put up by Yale University on the Internet, none of the five words for "favorite" looks anything like "Keisha" to me. Of course, maybe a completely unabridged Swahili dictionary would have this, but I personally doubt it. [noted -ed]

This name only looks right on girls with darker-colored skin.

That makes absolutely no sense and it's not true either. What a dumb response.

Just because mostly black people use this name doesn't mean that other races can't use it.

I just recently remembered that Rose Tyler (off Doctor Who) had a mate called Keisha.

My name is Keisha, I personally don't like it, it's too common and mostly ghetto people have this name which I'm not.

This one sounds quite trashy to me, and no, I don't think it sounds natural on white women, as it has that typical ghetto name sound to it.

There is a beautiful r&b singer named Keyshia Cole. She's definitely one of my favorites and she makes this name seem so much sweeter then what people make it out to be.

I think Keisha is an okay name, but perhaps spelled differently, like Keysha.
Also, slight_night_shiver, what is this 'typical ghetto sound' you are talking about? I am black and I hate people telling other black people 'your name doesn't sound black' just because her/his name isn't Keisha, Shenika, Daquarius, or Quantavius.

I knew a (white) girl with this name and she pronounced it Kay-sha.

I admit it sounds as tolerable as ghetto names go, and it actually sounds professional compared to names like Shaniqua, LaKeshia, and LaWanda. Even so, it's still ghetto and a little trashy.
