Meaning of Kasiah

Like a gentle whisper of cinnamon floating on a summer breeze, Kasiah, pronounced kuh-SY-uh (/kəˈsaɪə/), is a spirited unisex choice that feels both fresh and time-honored. Borrowing from the Hebrew Keziah—meaning “cassia” or fragrant spice—Kasiah adds a modern twist with its soft –iah ending, hinting at a subtle spiritual echo without feeling stuffy. Its popularity in the US has been on a steady uptick, jumping from just 20 newborns (909th) in 2023 to 59 (865th) in 2024, proof that more families are drawn to its understated allure. It’s the name that won’t get lost in a sea of Emmas and Olivias, yet doesn’t demand the spotlight like a neon marquee. Whether paired with a classic middle name or something bolder, Kasiah offers warmth, versatility, and a pinch of the unexpected—an ideal moniker for a child destined to stand out.
