Mikia is English in Origin.

Blending modern creativity with traditional roots, Mikia is a multicultural given name with several plausible sources. It can derive from Hebrew Micah/Micaiah (Hebrew Mikha/Mikayahu), meaning “Who is like God?”, often filtered through short forms like Mika or Mica. In Japanese, Mikia may be fashioned from kanji such as 美 (beauty), 希 (hope), 輝 (radiance), and 愛 (love), producing compound meanings. In Hawaiian-influenced usage, where Micah becomes Mika, Mikia appears as an elaborated, melodic form.

Used in English-speaking countries since the late 20th century, Mikia remains uncommon and is chosen for its light, international sound. It is typically feminine but can be unisex. Variants and near-relations include Mikiah, Mikiya, Mikya, Mekia, Mikaia, and the roots Micah and Micaiah; short forms include Miki, Mika, and Kia. The name carries a blend of devotion, brightness, and gentleness across traditions.
