Meaning & History
Variant of Takia. This was popularized by the American actress, comedian, writer and singer T'Keyah Crystal Keymáh (1962-), who was born Crystal Walker and adopted her stage name in 1988. She has claimed that the name means "mental revival of God's spirit" in Hebrew; perhaps the spelling was influenced by Hebrew יָה (yah), which refers to the Hebrew God.
