Tips for parents

  • Read a few -esh names together, since Ramesh, Rajesh, Dipesh and Rupesh differ only in the first part.
  • Pick one spelling and stay with it, as Bishal and Vishal, or Subash and Subhash, are the same name written two ways.
  • Say the name with your surname and listen for repeated sounds, which are easy to miss on paper.
  • Use the name finder to search by meaning when a list of 960 feels overwhelming.
