Mishika can be a japanese name - i.e. it is possible to spell it with japanese characters - but it is not really being used. If you type Mishika into google first thing you get is that it's being used as a transcription for the word "mythica", but not as a name (apart from a dog's name).Mishika doesn't have any fixed meaning in Japanese either.A name that is much more frequent would be "Michika", but the pronunciation is different and it doesn't have a fixed meaning either. Else I can only think of Misa or Misha which are close.But I suppose Mishika has a different origin, maybe a made-up name.

Origin is Sanskrit, meaning is 'love of god' or 'god's gift'.

Somehow that seems doubtful. It may be South Asian, but that includes hundreds of languages that are neither descended nor cognate with Sanskrit, and Mishika doesn't seem to have any elements that would correlate to "god".
