The त, ट and थ sounds inside T names

Three Devanagari letters do most of the work here. Tapendra (तपेन्द्र), meaning lord of heat or the sun, and Tribikram, conqueror of the three worlds, begin with त. Tika (टीका), a blessing mark, and Tank, a pointed tool, begin with ट. Thakur means lord, master or chief and begins with थ. Tripti means satisfaction, contentment and fulfilment. Three names in the group begin with छ, so the English T does not always point to the same Nepali letter; check the Devanagari, and browse names starting with Tr for another cluster.

Tips for parents

  • Choose between Tika and Tilak by sound, since both mean an auspicious mark.
  • Decide between Tanka and Tank early if you like that name, as both share टंक.
  • Say Tirth and Tirtha aloud with your surname, since the shorter form can sound clipped.
  • Use the Nepali letter tool to see which Devanagari letter opens each name.
