Kyneishia is in Origin.

Kyneishia is a modern African-American given name formed by creative elaboration and respelling, most plausibly blending the Keisha element with the -nisha/-neisha suffix. Keisha itself is widely viewed as a short form of Lakeisha, a late-20th-century coinage influenced by Aisha (Arabic "alive, living") and sometimes by the biblical Keziah ("cassia"). The -nisha ending echoes Nisha (Sanskrit "night"), though in African-American name style it often functions as a melodic, fashionable suffix rather than a direct borrowing.

Used in the United States from the 1970s forward, Kyneishia and its cousins saw their greatest visibility in the 1980s-1990s within Black communities, without becoming broadly mainstream. Common variants include Kyneisha, Kynesha, Keneisha, Kaneisha, Kenisha, Kanisha, Keisha, Lakeisha, and Neisha. Because the name is a modern blend, it carries associative meanings from its parts - "alive, living," "cassia," and "night" - but does not have a single fixed traditional meaning.

Kyneishia turns up in none of the birth registries or name datasets we cover. Names like this are usually very rare, tied to a particular region or tradition, or freshly invented. Whatever the reason, hardly anyone else has it.
