Hi. The reason you had trouble finding the meaning of the name is because it is in a language that is no longer in common usage. It is an ancient language called 'Sanscrit' which was used in ancient India. The word Ashka is Sanscrit for 'hope'. The Hindi word for 'hope' is 'Asha' which is quite similar :) The name 'Asha' is in fact quite common, and made famous by the singer Asha Bhosle on which the song 'Brimful of Asha' is based. Anyway, hope this was of some help.
