Ashis is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.

Ashis is a masculine given name of South Asian origin, ultimately from Sanskrit āśīṣ, meaning “blessing,” “benediction,” or “good wish.” In many modern Indo‑Aryan languages (Hindi, Bengali, Odia, Assamese, Nepali), the lexical form āśīṣ denotes a blessing spoken over someone; as a personal name it carries the sense of “one who is blessed” or “bearer of blessings.”

The name has been widely used across eastern and northern India and Bangladesh since the 20th century, buoyed by Sanskritic revival and the appeal of virtue names, and it remains familiar in the South Asian diaspora. Spelling reflects regional phonology: Ashish and Aashish (Hindi/Marathi/Nepali), Asish or Ashis (Bengali/Odia/Assamese), and Aashis. Common nicknames include Ashu and Ashi. The concise Ashis form characteristically drops the final aspiration while preserving the same auspicious sense of benediction or good wishes.
