Letishia

US Popularity Rank: 11424

Origin: None

Meaning: Joy, gladness, happiness

Already sounding like a synonym for laughter, Letishia unsurprisingly means "joy" and "gladness." Originating in Latin, Laetitia was the Roman goddess of gaiety commemorated on a coin circulating between 240 and 243 AD. The name began to peak in the late 19th century and has remained popular ever since, spawning several variations. The joy and gratitude you feel as you gaze at your little one are reciprocated entirely by Letishia’s happy and friendly nature.
