Eska Name Meaning and Origin
Eska is of uncertain origin, but it is believed to be derived from the Old Norse word “eska,” which means “ash tree,” symbolizing strength and resilience. In some cultures, Eska is also considered a variation of the name “Esker,” which refers to a ridge or mound formed by glacial deposits. The name has an earthy and nature-related feel due to its association with trees and natural formations. While it is not widely used, it has a modern, unique appeal and can be used for both genders, though it is most commonly given to girls in contemporary settings. Its simplicity and connection to nature make it a distinct and timeless choice.
