About the Name Aakanksha

Aakanksha represents Sanskrit ākāṅkṣā (आकाङ्क्षा), meaning a wish or desire. Aspiration expresses its sense as a personal name.

The same word has a technical use in grammar for the expectation of another word needed to complete a meaning. As a name it may evoke hopes or ambitions, but it does not establish how ambitious or successful its bearer will be. Akanksha is a related English spelling.

Reference: Cappeller Sanskrit-English Dictionary, ākāṅkṣa/ākāṅkṣā.
