The girl's name Ashia \a-shia\ is pronounced ah-SHEE-ah. It is of Arabic origin, and its meaning is "life and hope". Hindi name. Mythology: the name of the wife of a Hindu demi-god.
Reply:While the first person who answered is correct about the name Aisha (my name is Aesha), Aisha and Ashia are two different names (as you know!). Ashia is African; its origin is Arabic (as is Aisha) and it means "hope".
Reply:Is is spelled Ashia or is that just how it's pronounced? Because there is a name Asia (pronounced Ashia) in Polish. Asia is short for Joasia which is a nickname of Joanna.


My mother's name is Joanna and all Polish speaking people call her Ashia.


I looked up the name with the spelling you asked for on this website and they didn't have it, but they did have alot of similar names such as the Polish Asia I said and Aisha in Arabic.

*Katie: The question is for the name ASHIA, not AISHA.
Reply:The girl's name Aisha \a(i)-sha\ is pronounced ah-EE-shah, AY-shah. It is of Arabic origin, and its meaning is "alive and well". Aisha was the favorite wife of the prophet Muhammad. The name is also linked to the moon goddess. Use in the English-speaking world is recent and many variants have been created from this name due to its pleasing sounds.
