Tisa

Tisa is a short and sweet girl's name rooted in Swahili, meaning "ninth born." Even if nearly a dozen siblings aren't in baby's future, this name will bring out their family-centered side. They'll probably feel most in their element in a busy and boisterous home full of laughter. Tisa also has a trendy, modern quality, thanks to its lookalikes, Lisa and Trisha. It's the perfect choice if you're seeking an African name with a spoonful of American flair.
