Re: meaning for name
The reason I asked is that there is a Sanskrit word adhIsha, deriving from the prefix a'dhi, meaning above, and the verbal root Ish, to possess, which means overlord, and is sometimes used as an attribute of some of the Gods. But, the transliteration schemes from Indian languages to Roman alphabet are varied, and this is not a common enough name in India for me to figure out.
