My name is Aisha and I personally don't like the name. I don't like who I'm named after, honestly. She got married at a very early age to a much older man, which I very much am against no matter what the time period. Like Atarah Derek, I also see her as a tragic figure, subject to the power of the prophet and his influence on her parents. This is just my opinion though.

Well no offense "Anonymous" but your opinion is completely baseless.
She was young, so what of it? It isn't like she was a child. And who on Earth determines a child as someone under 18? You have different countries stating different ages of majority. Even states within the same country can differ. Thus I'm saying : If she's an adult, it doesn't matter if she's 9 or 18. It differs from one person to another and one period to another. And let's be honest, the people of nowaday cities are "spoiled" and you'll see the clear difference between them and the people of villages.
And what exactly is your problem if the man is older? If she didn't complain - Actually, she was happy! -, what gives YOU the right to complain for her? I ask you : Delete this false image of a child you have in your mind.
Furthermore, when you disapprove of something no matter what the period or situation is, it backfires at you. People from the past might see things you do as bad. People in the future might see what you do as bad. Thus, unless evidence and purpose is presented why the act is bad, there's no meaning.
[Like Atarah Derek, I also see her as a tragic figure, subject to the power of the prophet and his influence on her parents.]
I REALLY don't want to sound offensive but this is extremely delusional. You make it look like she has been tortured or something. Another delusional part is the "influence" claim. Had you known that forced marriage in Islam is invalid by default, you wouldn't have made such a statement!
[This is just my opinion though.]
Well if you can't back your "opinion", it is better kept to yourself instead of antagonizing someone whom almost two billion believe in.

My name is Aisha. I was born in 1991, a year after the song Iesha came out. Thankfully my mother decided to spell it the correct way. I like my name, and I think it suits me.

It's a beautiful name, but I feel so sorry for the namesake. Aisha sounds to me like a beautiful, shy, lonely and vulnerable little girl who needs more quality daddy time to really live up to her name. A girl who needs time to enjoy being her daddy's princess instead of being made a queen at too young an age. A girl made to grow up entirely too quickly.
If I wasn't worried about what Muslims would do to Christians all over the Middle East, I'd write a book based on Aisha's life. I see her as a very tragic figure in history.

A little nice, but I hate the apostrophe at the beginning.

The punctuation looks as if it was placed there and doesn't seem to fit at the front of the name. I'm not too fond of Aisha. It seems like a trendy, modern invention, but when you take the meaning into account, it's not that bad. I just think it's a bit overused today.

A very pretty name. Not sure I would use it for a white girl, though, honestly.

I love this name because it's my middle name! But I really do like this name. It's very pretty and a little sassy.

I've also seen Aisha spelled Iesha. I don't like that though.

I like this sometimes, and then other times it sounds a bit overused and too much of a chav name. But I think I like it pronounced "ay-sha" rather than "ai-ee-sha" or "ai-sha" or anything like that.

Sounds very similar to Alicia.

I'd like to add a few more points based on what a few users said.
@-- Laurisgirl 3/14/2007 who says "... other times it sounds a bit overused and too much of a chav name."
Yes, it's common, but since it's so beautiful it's common for a reason! And no, it's not a "chav" name at all.
@-- Atarah Derek 9/24/2010 who says "... lonely and vulnerable little girl who needs more quality daddy time" and "I'd write a book based on Aisha's life. I see her as a very tragic figure in history."
Um, like, how could you speak for Aisha? Know Aisha personally do you? No, I thought not. I don't think anyone should write a book on Aisha's behalf of how she felt when only Aisha herself and some of the people she knew who knew her truly well would actually know.
@-- Anonymous User 9/25/2014 who says "My name is Aisha and I personally don't like the name. I don't like who I'm named after,"
Hmm, I can't believe you're saying that. If you knew much about Islam you would be aware that Aisha was a very good person, not a bad person at all so surely that should be enough to make you like the name? I think your name is perfect.

Your comment is awesome. Thank you for posting something logical and makes sense! Seriously, you're an awesome, intelligent individual. It's nice seeing at least someone on here act respectful towards an important figure Muslims deeply honour. (:
