Ishani is from the Sanskrit ईशानी (Īśānī — feminine of Ishana, queen, goddess, ruler) — feminine of Ishana from Sanskrit īś (to rule/master). Ishani is one of the Sanskrit feminine names — central to traditional Hindu Shakta + Shaiva heritage.
Ishani does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.

In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Ishani reduce to 6, The Nurturer. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
