Aayushi

Meaning of Aayushi

Aayushi derives from the Sanskrit āyūṣ, the feminine form of a word meaning “long life” or “longevity,” and carries an implicit wish for health and enduring vitality. Pronounced /ɑːˈjuːʃi/, it has enjoyed modest adoption among Indian families and their diaspora, appearing in U.S. birth records consistently since 2000. In those two decades, its rank has hovered in the mid-900s—peaking at 899 in 2003 and most recently placing 951th in 2020 with five newborns—reflecting a steady but selective appeal. Its combination of melodic simplicity and auspicious meaning makes Aayushi an attractive choice for parents seeking a name that feels both distinctive and deeply rooted in tradition.
