In search of names that honour my [name_f]Indian[/name_f] ancestry, I have amassed a collection of Sanskrit-origin names. I wish to share them with the naming community, and hence this thread was born!
Drop a description of yourself and the gender of the combo you prefer. Most people in [name_f]India[/name_f] donāt have middle names, and when they do, theyāre usually either the parentās name or surname. In my version, Iāll be having word names (that I think fit your personality) in place of middle names.
I love art and animals. I also love the Beatles, The Office, and Friends. My favorite colors are sage green and lilac and I love names of course. I love the rain and autumn leaves. I donāt know what else to say besides thank you!
This is such a cool idea, [name_f]Scarlet[/name_f]! Iām sooo excited! Iād love a feminine name/combo, please. Hereās a little description of meā¦
I love Christmastime and cozy clothes very much! Iām a nanny, a writer, a university student (studying linguistics), and a life-long name nerd. Iām tall and talkative, got lots of freckles and very long, mousy hair. [name_m]Favorite[/name_m] things include: [name_m]Little[/name_m] Women (book, movie), pink (color), winter (season), fish and chips (meal), and lace-up boots (shoe). Iām also a big fantasy, classic literature, and [name_u]Marvel[/name_u] personāI love stories with lots of heart and familial emotion!
Iām a graduate student, studying Shakespeare, and love literature in general. Iām married to a history nerd and weāve probably seen every period drama ever made! My favourite colour is lilac and I like playing dungeons and dragons, horse riding, long walks, and Earl Grey tea. Iām very pale with blue eyes and dark hair.
Neutral name please! If not possible masculine or femenine
appearance: Iām fourteen, I have black short hair with black eyes. I wear golden glasses.
style: I like to wear hoodies and sneakers or sport shoes. But I also wear more elegant, dark academic shirts and trousers and jumpers. I tend to wear dark colours like dark red, black and dark brown and dark blue or colours of white / beige / brown side.
personality: Iām a chaos somehow; inside me there are so many thoughts and i am for real a complicated person. I am somehow lunatic maybe, get annoyed easily somehow and overthink; but I am kind and nice, I think. I like to make friends. I like to know the true side of the story. I am an introvert somehow. I enjoy my own company and I am a bit closed maybe sometimes but that is because I am complicated myself; yet I like to make of company with people.
hobbies/interests: Reading, writing, art and museums, music and singing, history, names, literature (Russian, British, Gothicā¦), swimming.
random facts: I am queer, a writer, a poet. I like to try to do the best to help who I can and to spread positive things and thoughts and to donate or to do voluntary jobs. I love the sea and the water. And the stars and the night. And I love gothic Victorian stuff and gothic stuff in general.
Iām a 13-year-old nature lover, daydreamer, Ravenclaw, nerd and completelessly hopeless romantic. I love JaneAusten, Anne of Green Gables, long walks, writing, and history. I have 5 brothers, who I love, but annoy me endlessly, and Iām an INFP. Iād call my style cottagecore-ish, and I have shoulder-length brown hair and green eyes. Iām currently watching All Creatures Great and Small and Sanditon and reading Great Expectations. My favorite colors are purple and green, Iād call myself pretty creative, and Iām fairly introverted, but when you get to know me, you can see my slightly crazy side.
iām south asian too!! what a coincidence! though my actual name is sanskrit, ivory is just an online name (:
iād love to see what you can do with ivory luelle!
Summary
i love green, pink and brown! iāve always loved aesthetics and such and i adore writing and reading.
iām an introverted person and i suppose i have my head in the clouds most of the time?! i survive on noodles and chai
iād love a femeinine name! thank you so much scarlet!
about me
iām around 5ā4-5ā5 somewhere in that range! iām quite sporty/athletic, iām a soccer player, a swimmer and i do track. on the flipside, iām also very into math and science, especially science. i love anything that has to do with biology or astronomy and would love to become a biochemist or astronomer one day! my favorite colors are emerald green and dark blue. iām quite the extrovert as well and really love talking to new people! taylor swift is probably just about my favorite person ever. i also really enjoy reading, especially psychological thrillers & classics. iāve been really into alice feeney books recently! two other random things about me are that i have a twin brother and can also speak french!
Iād name you Prakriti [name_f]Lilac[/name_f] or [name_f]Varsha[/name_f] [name_f]Sonnet[/name_f].
You totally seem like a Prakriti [name_f]Lilac[/name_f]! I love that name for you. Prakriti means ānatureā. [name_f]Varsha[/name_f] [name_f]Sonnet[/name_f], on the other hand, would also make for a good alternative if you donāt like Prakriti. [name_f]Varsha[/name_f] means ārainā and I love how the meaning joins together to form āsonnet of rainā.
Vidya means āknowledgeā. The winter solstice marks the start of winter in the Northern Hemisphere. Karnika, on the other hand, means āheart of the lotusā. Lotuses are pink, as you stated was your favourite colour. I chose Lark because of the description NB had in its entry for it:
The expression āhappy as a larkā gives this songbird name a cheery image, as well as a ālarkā being a synonym for a merry time.
Iya [name_u]Florence[/name_u] or Ahilya [name_u]Story[/name_u] are the names for you!
Iya means āviolet flowerā since you mentioned you liked the colour. I love that, with Florenceās meaning, it means āblossoming violet flowerā. Ahilya is in honour of Maharani Ahilyabai Holkar, ruler of the Malwa kingdom. She was an advocate for womenās education and industrialisation. The name means āsacredā.
I might have been following a subtle theme here, but nonetheless, I think these are perfect. Kanak means āgoldenā and together the combo means āgolden thunderā which gives such a fierce imagery. Bhavya āvirtuousā.
Youād be Prerna [name_u]Willow[/name_u] or Vati [name_f]Frances[/name_f]!
Prerna means āinspirationā and Vati means ānatureā. The middles were obviously cottage-core themed, but Prerna [name_u]Willow[/name_u] is really the one for you.
[name_u]Love[/name_u] to see some south asian rep here! (iām half sri lankan myself : ) )
Iād love a girl name!
about me
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite things to do are reading, drawing en listening to music. I prefer fictional novels although I wonāt turn down a good autobiographical novel ;). I love biology and Ancient Greek!
The names Iāve chosen for you are [name_f]Aditi[/name_f] [name_f]Wisteria[/name_f] or Mridvika [name_u]Lux[/name_u].
[name_f]Aditi[/name_f] means āboundlessā and [name_f]Wisteria[/name_f] is an obvious nod to [name_u]Taylor[/name_u] [name_m]Swift[/name_m] (the lakes). I personally love this for you. Itās very cottagecore in my opinion. Mridvika might be a bit difficult to say (though if thatās a problem, I would be more than happy to change it) but it totally suits you! It means āa vineā.
