Latishah is in Origin.
Latishah is a modern American spelling of Latisha, itself a phonetic form of Letitia, from Latin Laetitia meaning "joy" or "gladness." The final -h is an ornamental flourish that does not change the usual pronunciation luh-TEE-sha. Through its Latin root, the name conveys cheerfulness and delight, linking a contemporary look to an old, positive meaning.
Use of Latishah and related spellings grew in the United States, especially in African-American communities, during the 1970s-1990s amid creative La-/Le- name patterns and renewed interest in classical sources. Letitia has been recorded in English since the 16th century and appears across Europe as Leticia (Spanish/Portuguese), Laetitia (French), and Letizia (Italian). Close variants include Latisha, Lateesha, Laticia, Latesha, and Letisha; common nicknames are often Tisha and Tish.
