Concha is Spanish in Origin.
Concha is a Spanish feminine name with layered roots. Most commonly it is a short form of Concepción, tied to Catholic devotion to the Immaculate Conception (María de la Concepción). It also exists independently from Spanish concha, “shell,” ultimately from Latin concha and Greek konchē, lending the name a serene, seaside imagery.
Usage flourished in Spain from the late 19th to mid-20th century and spread to Latin America and the Philippines; notable bearers include novelist Concha Espina and singer Concha Piquer. Variants and related forms include Concepción, Conchita, Conchi; Catalan Concepció with Conxita/Conxa; Galician/Asturian Concha; Basque Kontxi; and Portuguese Conceição (with regional pet forms). The name can sound vintage today yet remains warmly familiar in Spanish-speaking cultures. Note that in Rioplatense Spanish (Argentina/Uruguay) concha is a strong slang term, a consideration for international use.
