831 Marathi Baby Names From The Land of Marathas

The most challenging yet exciting task for new parents is finding a unique and beautiful name rooted in their culture and tradition. So how about choosing a profound, classical, and sublime Marathi baby name from the treasure trove of the Marathi language? Marathi names are typically taken from Hindu mythology, like Ramayana, Mahabharata, or Marathi folklore. Their names reflect the Maharashtra region’s diverse culture, rich traditions, and language. Most of these names also have roots in the Sanskrit language and usually symbolize Gods, deities, and other historical figures. For instance, names like Bhagyashi, which is a Sanskrit name and means ‘blessed’ or ‘fortunate,’ reflect a promising future, destiny, and prosperity in life. Another captivating choice is Dhaval, a trendy Marathi name for ‘white’ or ‘fair,’ mostly symbolizing purity and innocence. Additionally, the grand Marathi name Rajrajeshwari has Sanskrit roots and is the name of the Hindu Goddess Paravati. It signifies a ruler or a queen with high authority and reflects on virtues like power, strength, and grace. However, elders and astrologers are consulted before zeroing in on the name. And on the day of Baarsa, or the naming ceremony, the child’s aunt whispers the name in the child’s ear four times, along with a prayer. She then announces the name to everyone present in the ceremony. This is followed by blessings of the elders and ends with a feast. Marathi baby names can be traditional as well as contemporary, and their meanings can vary. With roots in Indian culture, these names are sure to sound familiar and form a deeper connection within families and communities. If you’re on the lookout for a distinctive Marathi baby name, you’ve landed at the right place. Below is our complete database of Marathi baby names with meanings. So are you ready to select your favorite?
