Naisha (नैशा) is a modern Indian girls' name that name lists usually explain as "special" or "unique". We could not find that sense in the Sanskrit dictionaries, so it appears to be a meaning that has grown up around the name. The closest Sanskrit word is naiśa, formed from niśā, "night", which Monier-Williams gives as "relating to the night, nocturnal", citing Manu and the Mahābhārata. That links Naisha with Nisha and Nishi, but we cannot be sure the modern name was coined from it. It is a modern girls' name.
