Modern American creation, possibly meaning gift or life
Shataya is a modern American name likely created through the combination of phonetic elements popular in African American naming traditions. It may be influenced by the Hebrew name Shaya, meaning 'gift of God,' or the Arabic name Shadiya, meaning 'singer.' Because it is a contemporary invention, its specific meaning is often defined by the parents who choose it.
