Takeem is an uncommon yet distinctive name of African origin, derived from Swahili 'Kume,' meaning 'to come.' It's often used as a given name for males and gained some popularity in the United States during the late 20th century.
"Takeem had a notable spike in popularity between 1990 and 1995, with peaks in 1994 and 1995, before declining and remaining relatively steady over the next two decades."
