In the world, Kanishka (Kanishka 
) is a common gender-neutral forename. The first name Kanishka is habitual in Sri Lanka, where it is quite a common primarily male, but very infrequently female name, United Arab Emirates, where it is quite a rare epicene name, and Afghanistan, where it is quite a rare boy's name. In absolute terms, it is commonest in Southern Asia, particularly Sri Lanka, India, and Afghanistan. Much less frequently, Kanishka is the last name as well as the forename.
