Andisheh is Persian in Origin.

Andisheh (Persian اندیشه) is a modern Persian given name drawn from the common noun andīsheh, meaning “thought, reflection, contemplation.” It comes from the verb andishidan “to think,” with roots in Middle Persian andīšag, and carries longstanding associations with prudence and intellect in Persianate culture.

The word is frequent in classical Persian poetry and prose, and it gained traction as a given name in the late 20th century - especially in Iran, Afghanistan (Dari-speaking communities), and the diaspora - amid a trend toward abstract virtue-noun names. Andisheh is unisex but more commonly given to girls. Variants and transliterations include Andishe, Andisha, Andesha (common in Dari), and Andishe without the final h; a casual nickname sometimes used is Andi. The name’s meaning evokes thoughtfulness, wise counsel, and reflective creativity, offering a contemporary choice with deep literary resonance.
