Archivesmeaning of the names
I am an afican-american female with a unique name. It is important for me to know the meaning of it if there is one.

Most unique names are invented by combining name elements or names. So for the true meaning, you'd really have to ask your parents; otherwise you can just guess which elements they combined. My guess for your name would be Tasha (from Natasha) plus Sheena.
However, the name may not be unique or invented by your parents. It may be a Native American name (Cheyenne).
I googled it and found several instances of it used as though it were a Native name (Cheyenne). I also found Tashina on a page where a person had listed many names and said that they'd been unable to find any info on them. I'd suggest you contact Native American heritage interest groups to seek info, if nobody here speaks up with any.

I have your name as well, just a different spelling. Though I am white, the name is a family name for me. My great great great grandmother was named Twishweena(perhaps not that exact spelling). She was a French Canadian Iroquois Indian. Her heritage consists of light hair, light skin and light eyes. She was also an indian princess. The name means Windwalker. There is a movie out called Windwalker, and I advise you to see it. Though in the movie, facts are jumbled, it will give you an approximate idea of what your name means. Also, in the movie, her husbands name is "Windwalker" which he gave himself after she (Twishweena) died.
