983 Indian Baby Unisex Names With Meanings

India is a tapestry of multiple languages, cultures, and religions. This diverse heritage has given rise to a plethora of Indian unisex baby names. Most of these names hold a specific cultural, regional, or religious significance. Every language and religion in India has its own essence. For example, Hindu names are usually derived from Sanskrit, but Persian and Arabic also have a part in the origins of certain names. In Hindu culture, giving children the names of Hindu gods is a common practice. Certain names describe characteristics of personality and appearance, and some describe colors. Celestial bodies are also a favorite topic for unisex baby names. Indian Muslim names are majorly influenced by Urdu, which is the standardized register of the Hindustani (Indian) language (1). Indian Christians, Sikhs, Jains, and Parsis mix Indian culture into names from their religion. Indians of nearly all regions and cultures write their first name followed by their middle and last names. In most cases, the father’s name is used as the middle name for boys and girls. In certain Indian cultures, a last name is not used. They only attach the father’s name to the child’s name, either wholly or as an initial. Middle names are often pronounced along with the first name, especially in formal settings (2). The diversity and inclusivity reflected in Indian unisex baby names resonate with the ethos of modern India, where the principles of equality and acceptance are deeply valued. Some names, like Krishna, fulfill several conditions, such as being a God’s name, being the name of a color, and being unisex. By choosing these names, parents make a powerful statement about breaking down gender stereotypes and promoting a world where individuals can define themselves on their terms. We have created a comprehensive list of Indian unisex baby names. You can easily choose the names you like and shortlist the best ones for your baby.
