Anesha is Hindi in Origin.
Anesha is a multilingual feminine name with several roots. In South Asia it most often reflects Aneesha/Anisha, from Sanskrit an- “without” + īśa “lord,” giving modern readings like “sovereign; without a master,” and, by echo with niśā “night,” “unending.” In Slavic contexts it parallels Aneša/Anežka, forms of Agnes (Greek Hagnē), meaning “pure.” It also appears as an English elaboration of Anne or as a variant of Arabic Anisa (“friendly”).
Documented in diaspora communities from the late 20th century, Anesha remains uncommon in U.S. and U.K. data but occurs in India, the Caribbean, and parts of Africa. Variants include Aneesha, Aneisha, Anisha, and Aneša; related names are Anish (m), Anisa, Agnes, Ines, and Anya. Nicknames Neesha/Nesha are typical, highlighting its versatile cross-cultural appeal.
