My fav baby girl name is Marisa. Did not realise it had indian roots.
I will call my daughter Pari. Really like the name!
How about my daughters name : “Shreeya Ammal”
“Shreeya” – a unique name refers to Goddess Laxmie (Hindu)
“Ammal” – the last name of a Sri Lanka saint, Parvathi Ammal.
To me its a blend of old + new..
I’m not Indian but I find these names sooooo beautiful!!
Trishna sounds cute. Thanks for the great suggestions!
Hey has anyone heard of the name Seshan? Do u know what it means?
Sheshan means serpant/snake or the head of the snake!
nice names.
Yash is an amazing name.
