Tichina is a unique and distinct given name, often found among individuals of African descent. It is derived from the African name Tichina, which is of Nigerian origin specifically from the Yoruba ethnic group. The name Tichina is believed to mean "God's gift." While it may not be as widespread as some other names, those who bear it carry a sense of uniqueness and cultural richness.
It appears that the name Tichina was quite popular among parents in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with a significant spike in popularity in 1995 with 88 births recorded that year alone. However, it seems to have declined in popularity since then, with fewer than 10 births per year from 2000 onwards, including several years with only five births each. Overall, there were 379 babies named Tichina between 1965 and 2006.
