Meaning and history
Arisha is a modern feminine name found in South Asian, Arabic-speaking, and other communities, but its origin is not uniform. It may represent different Arabic or Indic forms depending on the original script, and popular translations such as “highness,” “peace,” or “one who builds” are not reliably universal. The intended meaning should therefore be confirmed from the bearer’s language and spelling. A notable bearer is Pakistani actor Arisha Razi. Exact etymology remains context-dependent.
In 2025, 49 babies were recorded with the name Arisha, ranking #3,211 among girls.
