Top 150 Unique Indian Baby Names

From the very first day, you know you are pregnant, the excitement of naming your child starts to grow in your heart. With the arrival of your little bundle of joy, shortlisting unique and meaningful names is a must. Shakespeare might have said, “What’s in a name?” but it is believed that the name has a lot of influence on a child’s personality and intellect. I remember when we were expecting our first child we wanted something Indian, unique and a name that could be pronounced globally. We had shortlisted two boys and two girls name but when our first child was born we didn’t think the names suited him. The dilemma for the perfect name started again. Finally, my mom-in-law suggested a name that we both loved and we named him ‘Eeshan’ which means Lord Shiva and it clicked with us.

But before we decided we ended up literally tossing and turning in bed over the name. To help you out in deciding the name of your baby yourself, here is a list of 150 unique names for boys and girls to help you deal with the confusion of  the crucial task of naming your little one.
