I've never seen the name before, and on immediate look, I'd expect the bearer to be from South Asia. It has a /sound/ which implies it could be of a religious background, but it is also comprised of the common Ash-, and that could mean it just derives from a tree.

If it is a religious name, I, for one, wouldn't know ...unless I looked it up but that's besides your point I suppose

So it's a no, not too closely tied to religion, for me
