Description:

I checked my massive collection of idioms and proverbs, and it wasnt there.

But, names with a similar "kesh" sound, maybe meaning strength or hair, are related. Think Keshav or Keshub. Names starting with "Al," like Alaric or Alistair, also sound similar. Albert or Alan are possibilities, but the connection is weaker.
