Jaleesa is a unique and melodic name of African origin, specifically from Swahili culture. It's composed of two parts: "Jali" meaning "to praise," and "esa" meaning "beautiful." Thus, the name Jaleesa carries a beautiful meaning, 'praising beauty,' reflecting its owner's grace and charm. This name is not particularly common in English-speaking countries but stands out for its distinctive sound and meaningful origin. It could be considered a unisex name, though it's more commonly used for females.
"Jaleesa saw its inaugural usage in 1989 with six newborns bearing this unique name."
