Tymika is a name of African American origin, derived from the Swahili word 'timeless.' It's composed of two elements: 'timi,' meaning 'time,' and '-ka,' denoting ownership or relationship. Thus, Tymika can be interpreted as 'owner of time' or 'relating to time.' This unique name gained popularity in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s but remains lesser-known outside those circles.
The name Tymika appears to have been popular during the late 70s and early 80s, with peaks in 1975 (10 births), 1978-1981 (6 births each year), and 1988 (7 births). However, its popularity declined thereafter, with only sporadic increases in the 90s. Overall, there were a total of 116 babies named Tymika from 1973 to 1995.
