Lasha is of Georgian origin and means "the sun" in Georgian language. It is considered a unisex name, although it's more commonly used for males. The name Lasha has been popular in Georgia for centuries but has only recently gained international recognition due to its unique sound and meaning. It is pronounced as LAH-shah, with the stress on the first syllable. Lasha does not have any specific religious or historical significance beyond its association with the sun. It is often shortened to Lashiko, a popular term of endearment used in Georgia.
"Lasha peaked in popularity between 1976 and 1988, with a high of 52 births in 1988. However, it has since declined significantly, with only 7 births recorded in 2012."
