Tyleah is a unique and modern given name of recent coinage, believed to have originated from American baby-naming trends. It is often attributed to the influence of popular culture, particularly names used in television shows and movies. The name consists of two distinct elements: 'Ty', which has been associated with various names such as Tyler and Tyson, and '-leah', a popular feminine ending found in names like Leah, Leila, and Ayleah. Therefore, Tyleah can be interpreted as a blend of these two parts, creating a fresh and contemporary moniker for baby girls.
The name Tyleah appears to have gained popularity over time, with a significant increase in usage from the late 1990s onwards. The peak in popularity occurred between 2014 and 2017, with more than 35 births each year during this period. However, there was a slight dip in popularity after 2017, with the number of births ranging between 19 to 22 annually until 2023. Overall, since 1995, the name Tyleah has been chosen for a total of 606 newborns.
