Ishwary is a modern South Asian given name rooted in Sanskrit aiśvarya, a term deriving from īśvara "lord, divinity," and denoting prosperity, opulence, and sovereignty. By extension it evokes the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi and a sense of splendor or dominion. The spelling reflects regional transliteration that drops the initial vowel of Aishwarya; common variants include Aishwarya, Ishwarya, Iswarya, Aiswarya, and the related Ishwari/Ishvari ("goddess").

Used chiefly as a feminine name across India, Sri Lanka, and the diaspora, Ishwary rose in visibility in the late 20th century alongside the broader popularity of Aishwarya, amplified by cinema and media. Short forms such as Aishu, Ishu, and Ashu occur informally. Cognate masculine forms include Ishwar/Eshwar. In Indic scripts one may see ऐश्वर्या for Aishwarya and ईश्वरी for Ishwari, underscoring the shared root and auspicious meaning of abundance and divine authority.
