Around the globe, Avashan (Авасхан 
, Avashan 
) is a rare mostly masculine, but uncommonly girly forename. The forename Avashan is characteristic of Central Asia, particularly Kyrgyzstan, where it is a rare gender-neutral name, Uzbekistan, where it is a rare male name, and Kazakhstan, where it is a rare primarily masculine, but scarcely female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, the name is most common in India, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan. Much less frequently, Avashan is the last name as well as the forename.
