Derived from Cassius, meaning hollow or empty
Kashis is a modern phonetic spelling of the Roman family name Cassius. While its ancient Latin root likely referred to a hollow place or a maker of helmets, the name today is often chosen for its sharp, contemporary sound. It has gained some visibility as a creative variation of the more traditional Cassius or the trendy Cash.
