Cheska is a rare and unique female given name of unknown origin, but often attributed to be of Slavic derivation, possibly meaning 'cheerful' or 'lively'. It gained some popularity in the late 20th century, particularly in Eastern European countries like Poland, the Czech Republic, and Russia. Cheska's pronunciation is similar to that of English words 'chess' and 'check', with a soft 'k' sound at the end. As a name, Cheska carries an air of uniqueness and individuality, making it a distinctive choice for parents seeking an uncommon yet appealing moniker for their daughter.
The number of babies named Cheska has seen a slight increase over time, with only five born in 1976 and six in 2010, resulting in eleven Cheskas in total across those two years.
