Boy names related to jewels and gems

Jewels give a name a bright, solid kind of beauty. This page brings together 94 Nepali names drawn from gems, precious metals and ornament, from the plain word for a jewel to the name of a particular stone. A few, such as Hira and Moti, are given to girls as well as boys.

  1. Stones with a colour

    Hira means diamond, Rubin means ruby, and Nilam means sapphire, a blue gemstone. Each name carries the picture of its stone.

  2. Worth beyond price

    Anmol and Amul both mean priceless and invaluable. Mani means a jewel or gem, something rare and precious.

  3. Ornament and the finest of all

    Bhushan means ornament or decoration. Chudamani means crest jewel, the jewel worn on the head, and so the finest of all.

Gemstone names for boys

The most direct choices name a stone. Hira (हीरा) means diamond, a precious and brilliant gemstone. Rubin means ruby, the red gemstone. Nilam means sapphire, a blue gemstone. Moti means pearl, a precious gem from the sea, and Mukta means pearl as well as liberated or free from bondage. Rajat means silver, a metal rather than a stone but just as bright. Most are short, so they sit easily beside a longer middle name.

Names that mean precious or priceless

Other names describe the value of a jewel rather than its colour. Anmol (अनमोल) means priceless and invaluable. Amul carries the same meaning. Mani means jewel or gem, something rare and precious, and Ratna means jewel or gem. Chudamani (चूडामणि) means crest jewel, the finest of all. Paras names the philosopher's stone that turns iron into gold, and Bhushan means ornament or decoration. The full collection is on boy names related to jewels.

Tips for parents

  • Pick a stone whose colour you like, since Hira, Rubin and Nilam each suggest a different picture.
  • Remember that Hira, Moti, Mukta and Ratna are used for girls too, so the meaning matters more than the gender.
  • Anmol and Amul are close in meaning; choose the sound that sits better with your surname.
  • Try a short gem name with a longer middle name if you want the full name to have more weight.
