Thanks for the replies!
Love a few of them..Arun, Hari and also Ravi (although I know what you mean, it's a classic!)

Heard Arun was quite common of late ..so might put that as a back up

Jasprit , Rohit , Virat , Shikhar , Anish

Is the surname Indian too? Could you have a name like Arun, but spell it Aaron? Hari spelt Harry? Ignore me if the surname isn't Indian.

Rohan
Raffi

I have a friend called Prakash. Not sure if it's modern or not, but I absolutely love the name.

123Pandy · 15/04/2020 22:01

@elouera the surname is Indian 😊

Abra? X

Rishi means seer, which I like a lot.
Many little boys are called Rohan, seems to be the most popular Indian boy's name where we live.
Tarun is nice, and also Taran is a Welsh name meaning thunder.
I used to know a lovely boy named Pankaj, and I've never met any other.

erised · 15/04/2020 22:19

My old bosses little boy is called Nikhil and I always loved it.

I knew a little Himanshu once, nicknamed Sunny, he was actually a little ray of sunshine and so cheery

Could you have a name like Arun, but spell it Aaron?
No, you couldn’t. A Jewish name would be odd.
