Krishika meaning
Krishika (कृषिका) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (modern).
(from kṛṣi) agriculture; the earth; kṛṣika, a cultivator
Also used to mean: farmer, prosperity
Krishika (कृषिका) is a modern girls' name built on Sanskrit kṛṣi, which Monier-Williams defines as ploughing and agriculture, the harvest, and the earth itself; the related kṛṣika is a cultivator or a ploughshare. Name lists give "farmer", "earth" or "prosperity", which fit these senses, while a few offer "divine ray of light" or a link to Krishna, which they do not. The form kṛṣikā is not an old dictionary word, so it is best seen as a new name made from a well-attested root.
