Ashesh meaning
Ashesh (अशेष) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin. By its first sound, अ, it is a Mesh rashi name (Krittika nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
Without remainder, entire, perfect, all
Also used to mean: complete, infinite
Ashesh (अशेष) is Sanskrit aśeṣa, formed from a-, "without", and śeṣa, "remainder, what is left over". Monier-Williams gives without remainder, entire, perfect and all, and the adverbs aśeṣam and aśeṣeṇa, "entirely, wholly". In everyday Bengali the word also means "endless", as in ashesh dhanyabad, "endless thanks". Baby-name lists give the name as "complete" or "entire", matching the dictionary, and some add "infinite", which follows the everyday sense. The name is used mainly in Bengal and North India.
