Shakeyta is a unique and distinctive given name, of African American origin. It is derived from the combination of two popular namesakes: Shakira, meaning 'dancer' in Arabic, and Latoya, which means 'gathering together' in Hawaiian. This blend results in a name that stands out while still holding meaningful roots.
The name Shakeyta had two peaks in popularity, with five babies named each year in 1982 and again in 1986, resulting in a total of ten children bearing this name over these four years.
