The Story in Brief
Times Now has published a list of 60 Sanskrit baby names inspired by Hindu gods and goddesses. The list includes baby boy names linked to deities like Krishna, Shiva, Vishnu, and the Sun God, with meanings tied to strength, wisdom, courage, and peace. Baby girl names are inspired by goddesses like Durga and Sita, associated with devotion, grace, and purity. The article suggests these names blend tradition with a modern feel suitable for today's classrooms.
The Indian Opinion
The naming trend is fine as a cultural practice, but some of the meanings are stretched thin. Aarav tied to Krishna? That is a stretch. Advait's 'unique' contradiction is cute, but not actually a contradiction. Articles like this feed a lazy narrative that ancient names guarantee wisdom or prosperity for the child. They do not. What matters is how the name wears in a real-world classroom, not in a Pinterest board. A better test: ask a teenager if they would want to be called Vedant or Atharv at school tomorrow.
