Hm...
According to two websites, one an Evangelion fan site, the other a random one, Asuka means "tomorrow fragrance," from asu, tomorrow, and ka, fragrance/perfume. Someone else said it was "tomorrow beautiful," assumably interpreting ka as "beautiful." And others have said that the kanji of all the NGE names are unavailable, so the exact meaning could be unfindable.
[Another site, non-Evangelion, lists Asuka as a place name written with character meaning "to fly" and "bird." "One hypothesis is that it derives from the stock epithet "of flying birds" (tobu tori no) commonly prefixed to the place name 'Asuka' in poetry." Probably unrelated, but interesting. ^_^]
And I'm convinced that if names have secret, hidden meanings, Asuka's is "Anta baka?!" ;D
Getting to the point ---> "Tomorrow fragrance" is probably your best bet.

Name Meaning:
The name of Asuka brings opportunities for success in business and financial accumulation. It fires you with ambition and promotional ideas, ideas that are original, progressive, and large-scale. With this name, success to you is a foregone conclusion, for you cannot conceive any reason for not reaching all your goals, as you have self-sufficiency, supreme confidence, boundless energy, and enthusiasm. As long as you have a sense of freedom from monotony and drudgery, and can see progress being made, you feel buoyant and optimistic. However, obstacles and frustration can give rise to feelings of impatience, intolerance, and depression. The ever-present desire to progress does not allow you proper relaxation or the proper expression of the softer feminine qualities of sympathy, encouragement, and affection. Others see you as rather shrewd and calculating. Your intense, restless nature can bring on tension which affects the solar plexus and digestion, or the female organs.
tahts waht it means!
