Tausha is a unique and attractive female given name of American origin. It is believed to have been coined by author Michael Crichton for his character in the 1980 novel "Congo," hence its relative rarity outside of fictional contexts. The name Tausha is often associated with strength, independence, and uniqueness due to its distinctive sound and spelling. In terms of pronunciation, it is typically rhymed with 'saw' or 'maw,' with the stress placed on the first syllable. As for popularity, while not widespread, Tausha has been used occasionally since the late 20th century, particularly in the United States.
The name Tausha experienced its peak popularity between 1970 and 1972, with a significant number of babies named during these years. However, there was a notable decline in the use of this name from the late 1970s onwards, with only single-digit numbers of births recorded annually from 1980 to 2004.
