No, as per word meaning it means ' daughter of Laxmi ' just like Shailja means Parwati ( daughter of mountain, Himalaya ) Shail meand mountain & Shree means Laxmi. Parwati is also known as Himja as her father was Himalaya. I have read in one answer so for your in formation Ahilya was not born of the stone she was converted in to stone by a curse later released by the touch of Ram's feet.
