Latoya by the numbers

Latoya was given to 20 American babies in 2017, the most recent full year we hold.

Its American peak was 5,051 babies in 1984, so it is a 1980s name that has since fallen a long way.

What we can tell you about Latoya

Not every name has a meaning to trace. Plenty are coined rather than inherited — invented outright, blended from two names, or respelled from an older one — and where we cannot find an etymology we can stand behind, we would rather say so than make one up. What follows comes from the birth records themselves.
