Trecia

Trecia is an English given name most likely formed as a variant or elaborated spelling of Tricia, itself a short form of Patricia. Patricia derives from the Latin patricius, meaning of noble birth or patrician, a term rooted in pater, meaning father, and used in ancient Rome to denote the hereditary aristocracy. The name Patricia gained widespread popularity in the English-speaking world during the twentieth century, partly through association with Saint Patricia of Naples. Related forms include Tricia, Trisha, and Patricia.
