Latricah is in Origin.
Latricah is a modern American feminine given name, most likely a creative elaboration on Tricia/Patricia formed with the productive La- prefix found in African American naming traditions. Through its Tricia/Patricia base, it traces back to Latin patricius, meaning “noble” or “of the patricians.” The final -h is a stylistic variant that does not affect pronunciation, typically rendered lah-TREE-kuh or lah-TREE-shuh depending on regional preference.
Usage for Latricah and related forms rose in the United States from the late 1960s through the 1980s, paralleling culturally distinctive coinages of the era, but it has remained rare in official statistics. Close variants include Latrica, LaTrica, Latricia, LaTricia, Latricha, and Latrisha; short forms such as Trish, Tricia, and Lati are common nicknames. The name blends familiarity with individual flair, carrying the “noble” connotation while standing out for its inventive spelling.
