Keisean, of African American origin, is a unique and distinctive given name for boys. It is believed to have emerged in recent decades as an original creation, perhaps inspired by the popular names Kevin and Sean, but with a distinctive twist. The name Keisean is composed of two parts: 'Kei', which may derive from the Hawaiian name Kai or be inspired by the Greek name Keith, meaning 'sea' or 'receptive', respectively; and 'Sean', of Irish origin, signifying 'God is gracious'. Thus, Keisean can be interpreted as a blend of cultural influences, conveying a sense of strength, adaptability, and grace. The name Keisean has gained popularity in the United States, particularly among African American communities, with its unique sound and meaning making it stand out among other names.
The name Keisean experienced a noticeable increase in popularity from 1997 to 2003, with the highest number of births occurring in 2003 (16). After that peak, usage fluctuated but remained consistent until 2008, with an average of about 12 births per year. There was a significant drop after 2008, reaching its lowest point since 1991 in 2010 and again in 2018 (both with only 5 births), suggesting a decline in the name's popularity over time.
