Looking for modern Indian boy names

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all,
We are expecting our second baby boy in a couple of weeks and are trying to find a modern [name_f]Indian[/name_f] name. We live in the US and would like something that’s not going to get distorted or mispronounced. The names that we have shortlisted so far are:

  • [name_u]Rohan[/name_u]
  • [name_m]Nikhil[/name_m]
  • Aakash

Any votes on the above and any other suggestions? Btw my elder son’s name is [name_m]Ishan[/name_m].

Thanks!

I really like [name_u]Rohan[/name_u]!

I’d suggest:
[name_m]Aarav[/name_m]
[name_m]Arjun[/name_m]
[name_m]Kamal[/name_m]
Ajay
[name_m]Hari[/name_m]
[name_m]Ravi[/name_m]
Ashwin
[name_m]Veer[/name_m]

I’m no expert but my friends son is Dhruv which I really like! And easy to pronounce for non-Indians :slight_smile:

I really like [name_u]Rohan[/name_u]! [name_m]Ravi[/name_m] is a very handsome name too.
