Eshani
Meaning of Eshani
Eshani, a feminine given name of Sanskrit origin, derives from the root eṣa- “desire” or “wish” and holds significant cultural resonance in Hindu tradition as an epithet of the goddess Parvati—consort of Shiva and embodiment of the divine feminine principle; its phonetic form in Hindi, rendered as eh-SHAH-nee (/eˈʃaˌni/), exemplifies the characteristic prosody of Indo-Aryan tongues. In the United States, Eshani has been recorded by the Social Security Administration since 1993, and although it has consistently ranked outside the upper strata of the one thousand most popular female names, it has maintained a modest presence—peaking at rank 861 in 1993 and most recently appearing at rank 942 in 2024 with eight occurrences—thus reflecting a measured yet enduring embrace by English-speaking parents seeking names of cross-cultural depth and historical richness.
