Usage spans cultures. In Japan the name rose in popularity from the late 20th century alongside trends for floral and luminous kanji; it is primarily feminine but occasionally unisex. In Muslim South Asia and the diaspora, Saiqa/Saika has been used since the mid-1900s. Variants and spellings include Saiqa, Saeqa, Sayqa; Japanese near-variant Saeka; and kana forms さいか/サイカ. Meaning ultimately depends on chosen kanji or the Arabic root.
