Cash is English in Origin.
Cash is an English surname turned given name. The surname most likely comes from Middle English and Old French case/caisse, meaning “box” or “chest,” used for a maker or keeper of chests; as English evolved, it became closely associated with “ready money,” shaping the name’s modern vibe of wealth and brisk practicality. In some families Cash also functions as a short form of Cassius or Cassidy.
As a first name it appears in U.S. records from the 19th century but stayed uncommon until late in the 20th. Popularity rose sharply in the 2000s, boosted by the enduring cultural pull of singer Johnny Cash and a taste for punchy, one-syllable names with Western grit. Predominantly masculine yet occasionally unisex. Variants and related forms include Kash (modern respelling), Cass, Cassius, and Cassidy; meanings range from “chest/keeper of chests” via the surname to the debated Latin roots of Cassius (“hollow” or unknown).
