The ocean of Sanskrit names is unfathomable. Hundreds of thousands of Sanskrit names are attested in Sanātana, Bauddha and Jaina texts. Sunāma-Sarit (“the river of good names”) is an authentic collection of 10,000 short (one-, two-, or three-syllable) Sanskrit names chosen from the author’s curated collection of more than 200,000 names from around 150 Sanskrit texts. In an age where the Internet is full of misinformation on Sanskrit names, this book is a ready reference for parents or entrepreneurs seeking a short Sanskrit name for their child or business. The book has 5,000 masculine names and 5,000 feminine names, with an equal number of masculine and feminine names beginning with each Sanskrit letter. There are more than 20,000 citations from various Sanskrit texts like Vedic texts, Rāmāyaṇa, Mahābhārata, Purāṇas, Nāmastotras and many more (including Bauddha and Jaina texts) for the names. About the author: Nityānanda Miśra, an alumnus of IIM Bangalore, is an investment banker, author of ten books, and an onomastician based in Mumbai. He has offered more than 1,200 consultations on Sanskrit names to parents and entrepreneurs over four years. This is his second book on Sanskrit names; the first being ‘Sunāma: Beautiful Sanskrit Names’ (2020).
