Tips for parents
- Decide whether you want a short royal name like Raj or a longer one like Rajendra; the short form is easier for a child to write.
- Try the name in its full form and its pet form, since many royal names have both: Rajendra often becomes Raj.
- Read the meaning closely, because titles such as Naresh and Bhupendra describe a ruler rather than a kingdom.
- Say the full name aloud with your surname, then read our guide on how to choose a Nepali baby name before you settle.
