Browsing Nepali names from A to Z

Some families already know the sound they want, or they want a first letter that matches a sibling's name. This page lets you browse Nepali names by letter, across all 26 letters of the English alphabet. Pick a letter to see every name that starts with it, then open any name to read its meaning, gender and Nepali spelling.

All 26 letters

Every letter from A to Z has its own list. Jump straight to the letter you need instead of scrolling through one very long list of names.
Roman and Devanagari

Each name shows its common English spelling and its Nepali script form, so you can see how Sagar is written as सागर.
Meaning on every page

Open any name to read its meaning, gender and spelling variants. That makes it easy to compare names that share a first letter.

Nepali names starting with S

S is a busy letter for Nepali names. Santosh means contentment and peace of mind. Sagar means ocean or sea, and Suman means flower, as well as good-minded and cheerful. Sujan means a good, wise and kind-hearted person, and Sunil means deep blue, like the sky. Names that share a first letter can still feel very different, so read each meaning before you build a shortlist. You can also filter by boy names or girl names to narrow a long letter list.

Spelling matters when you search by letter

Many Nepali names have more than one English spelling. Bibek is a variant of Vivek, and Nabin is often written Navin. So the same name can sit under B or V, or under N with a different second letter. If you can't find a name, try its other spellings. To look up names by their first letter in Nepali script instead, use the Nepali letter index. Our pronunciation guide explains how Roman spellings map to Nepali sounds.

Tips for searching by letter

Choose a letter that sounds good with your surname, not only one you like alone.
Check alternate spellings, such as B and V, before deciding a name is missing.
Read the meaning on each name page so the first letter isn't your only filter.
Use the random name generator if you want fresh ideas outside your favorite letters.
