Resurrection; one who will rise again
Staisha is a modern diminutive form of Anastasia, which is derived from the Greek name Anastasios. It carries the profound meaning of resurrection, historically associated with the Christian belief in the afterlife. While rare today, it emerged as a creative American adaptation of traditional Slavic and Greek forms.
