Origin and meaning of Kaja
Kaja has debated origins: some link it to the Greek Chaia, related to the earth goddess Gaia, others see it as an independent Scandinavian form that later spread to Poland. It is a very short, modern name, much loved by Polish parents over the past two decades for its fresh, international sound that is easy to pronounce across languages. Its minimalism makes it a contemporary choice, far from longer traditional names.
