Esa

Esa comes from rich roots with meanings steeped in spirituality. In Hebrew, it signifies 'God is salvation', derived from 'Yeshua', a form of Joshua. Finnish speakers will recognize it as a short form of Esaias, or Isaiah, which carries the same divine meaning. The name feels both classic and thoughtful, offering a sense of tradition and a nod to its biblical origins without being overly common.

In terms of popularity, Esa has had quite the rollercoaster ride. It made a significant leap of 4184 spots between 1988 and 1989, showing a burst of interest during that time. However, it saw a dramatic drop from #6900 to #10411 in 1981, illustrating the ebb and flow of its appeal. As of 2023, Esa reached its best rank at #2573 and was last ranked at #2943 in 2024.

Esa exudes a warm, spiritual vibe that's both timeless and understated. It's a name that feels thoughtful and introspective, perfect for parents looking for something with a deep-rooted sense of heritage and meaning. Whether you're drawn to its Hebrew or Finnish connections, Esa offers a gentle strength and quiet charisma that's hard to ignore.
