What is the meaning of the name Anastasha ?

The baby name Anastasha is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced /ˌænəˈtæʃə/ (an-uh-TASH-uh).

Anastasha is in Origin.

Anastasha is a modern reimagining of Anastasia, likely shaped by the ear-pleasing echo of Natasha. Its root is the Greek Anástasis, “resurrection,” a meaning embraced by early Christians and tied to Saint Anastasia of Sirmium (4th century). Through Byzantine and Slavic traditions the name flourished, later appearing among European nobility, most famously within Russia’s Romanov family, which helped sustain its cross-cultural appeal.

As a variant, Anastasha employs the -sha ending familiar in Slavic pet forms, yet remains rare and largely 20th–21st century in use, especially in English-speaking settings. Related forms include Anastasia, Anastasiya (Russian), Anastazja (Polish), Anastacia (Spanish/Portuguese), and Nastassia or Nastasya. Common diminutives are Ana, Stasia, Tasia, Nastya, and Asya. Though it resembles Natasha, that name stems from Natalia and is etymologically distinct. The enduring sense of “resurrection” lends Anastasha themes of renewal and hope.
