Tisha meaning
Tisha (तिशा) is a Hindu girl's name.
Meaning today
Happiness, faithful
In the dictionaries
The name isn't in the classical dictionaries we use, so it is most likely a modern name. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Tisha (तिशा) is a short, modern girls' name. We could not find it in the Sanskrit dictionaries, and name lists disagree about its meaning: some give "happiness", others "faithful" or "abundant". None of these can be traced to a source word, so we treat Tisha as a modern name whose meaning depends on the family. It is a different word from Sanskrit tiṣya, an old name of the Puṣya nakṣatra. Tisha is also used independently in English-speaking countries, which makes it easy to carry abroad.
