Further Comments: Similarity to Sanskrit root Ish, to flow/to pour (especially regarding wealth), in locative variation 'Ishani' meaning 'in the flow' with the sense of 'in abundance'. Likely local variation on how to pronounce original Sanskrit sound. There is a very large historic Sanskrit influence on Indonesian culture, so Ichsani is a likely loan word. -DK
