What is the meaning of the name Tamecca ?

The baby name Tamecca is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced tə-MEK-ə,tay-MEK-ə.

Tamecca is English in Origin.

Tamecca is a modern American feminine name, a creative respelling of Tamika/Tameka that blossomed in the United States during the late 1960s-1980s, especially in African-American communities. The broader family is widely thought to be influenced by the Japanese name Tamiko, which can be written with characters meaning 'child of the people' or 'child of many beauties'. As with most respellings, Tamecca does not have a separate traditional etymology, but it generally carries the same positive associations attributed to Tamika/Tameka.

In records, Tamecca is rare compared with its cousins, while the base forms peaked in U.S. popularity in the 1970s and early 1980s and also found use in Australia and the UK. Variant and related spellings include Tamika, Tameka, Tameeka, Tameca, Tammika, Tammeka, Tomeka, and Tamyka. Some may hear an echo of Mecca in this spelling, though the lineage traces to the Tamika/Tamiko stream.
