Cadencia is a modern given name drawn from Spanish cadencia, "cadence," ultimately from Latin cadentia, from cadere, "to fall." Across music, poetry, dance, and even equestrian terminology, cadencia names the measured flow, graceful swing, and resolving rhythm, associations that give the name a lyrical, balanced aura. It sits alongside cognates such as English cadence and Italian cadenza in the family of Romance terms for rhythmic phrasing.

As a personal name, Cadencia remains rare but has appeared in 21st-century records, largely in Spanish- and English-speaking countries, aligning with the broader trend of music- and word-based names. Commonly treated as feminine due to its -a ending, it can be used unisex. Related forms and variants include Cadence, Kadence, Cadenza, and the creative spellings Kadencia and Kadensa; diminutives like Cady or Cadi occur in English. Meaning: "rhythm," "flow," "measured step," or "musical resolution."
