Mihika meaning
Mihika (मिहिका) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Snow; mist, fog; camphor
Also used to mean: dewdrop
Mihika (मिहिका) is the Sanskrit mihikā, which Monier-Williams records as snow, in the Bhagavata Purana, and as mist or fog; older lexicons add camphor, perhaps for its whiteness. Name lists give mist or dewdrop, close to the dictionary, and families choose it for the image of a cool, fresh morning. It is a modern name with a short, soft sound. Mihika sounds close to Mahika, but the two are different words: Mahika has its own entry.
