Anup means incomparable. Browse boy names starting with A for the rest of this group.
A as अ and आ, and the other A sounds
The letter A stands for more than one Devanagari sound. Anil and Amit begin with अ, a short open a. Aakash (आकाश), meaning sky, and Aayush, meaning life or long life, begin with आ, held a little longer. Ashish and Aashish share आशिष, so the extra A changes the spelling but not the name. Asmita means self-respect, pride or identity. A few names begin with ए or ऐ, so check the first letter before you decide.
Tips for parents
- Decide between the short अ of Amit and the longer आ of Aakash, then match the spelling to it.
- Compare Ashish and Aashish, since both are written आशिष, and stay with the form you choose.
- Browse names starting with Aa if the long आ sound at the start appeals.
- Say the name with your surname, as many A names end in a vowel and can run into the next word.
