When you’re blessed with a baby, you want your child’s name to be a blend of traditional and modern. You want it to have a stylish sound and contemporary elements while being rooted in heritage. Bengali names are perfect examples of such kind of names.
Bengalis believe that the name of a child depends on the character of the baby. Hence, they select names inspired by gods and goddesses, influential figures, and nature. Some parents also select names that reflect the hopes and aspirations parents have for their children. The surnames of Bengalis reflect their sub-clan groupings and family background.
Naamkaran or naming ceremony is an important tradition in every Indian community, and even Bengalis conduct it with utmost sincerity. It is mostly observed on the 21st day of the baby’s birth, with a grand celebration.
From the land of Rabindranath Tagore, MomJunction brings you an extensive list of beautiful bengali boy names and bengali girl names with meanings. So go ahead and pick a perfect name for your newborn.
