I don't really see what is so unusable about this name for anglophones... Seems like a lovely name to me

My name is Neisha! I think they should add my spelling as a variation. Also, I have been told by many friends who are from India and speak Hindi, that the name translates to "Beautiful Night"

I'm curious as to why Nameberry thinks Nisha won't translate well to English countries... living in America I know a couple Indian-Americans named Nisha and no one has ever commented on it. It seems to work just fine and is a very pretty name.
