Hindu baby names or the Indian baby names are mostly after Hindu deities, spiritual names, names from Sanskrit words, names of flowers etc. As India is a vast country with a varied cultural heritage and whatever is in the Northern part is uncommon to the Southern part of this blessed country. Similar thing is with the naming thing.

Different people from different areas of India have different popular names for their babies. Here I have tried to bring a list of such baby names which are not limited to any Indian territory.

First I will mention boy baby names and their meanings,

1)Ram: This name is what every Indian mother wants to give to her child. Its actually the name of Hindu deity Lord Ram, who was brave and chivalrous.
2)Shankar: Another popular Hindu baby name after the name of Lord Shiva, who is one of the Hindu Trinity.
3)Mahesh: Its another name of Lord Shiva and is a popular Hindu baby name.
4)Ramesh: Ramesh is Ramadevi’s ish(husband), Lord Vishnu. He is one of the deities of the Hindu trinity.
5)Vijay ,Ajay are all meaning ‘victory’
6)Gaurav which means ‘honor’

Satish, Rahul, Ganesh, Raj are other popular Hindu baby names widely used all over India.

Now lets see the popular Hindu girl names,

1)Vaishali which mean ‘Princess of Vaishala.
2)Names after Hindu Godesses like Sita, Lakshmi, Saraswati, DUrga
3)Geeta after the Hindu sacred text ‘Bhagwad Geeta’
4)Priyanka, Priya which mean ‘delightful to look at’.
5)Names after flowers like Prajakta, Ketaki, Shalinee, Neha are also among Popular Hindu baby names.
