Take a look at: http://www.dosima.org/forenames/Kunal.htm
also http://www.hindunet.org/wwwboard/mea...sages/110.html

Basically, it's a male Hindu name that may mean "lotus flower".

hmm interesting.. I could not find a meaning for it in my search.

Meaning: Lotus in Sanskrit. This was the name of the son of Emperor Ashoka.

Kunal (Kunaal) A devotee of Vishnu


Many sites just say it has no meaning.

Are you going to name your son Kunal?

We are of Indian origan living in the US. And we would like to have an
Indian name that is easy to pronounce and yet have a significant
meaning. So we are looking at names like :Rohit,Rohan,Neil,Navin,
Nikhil, Kunal and Karan (some of the names we are leaning towards)

Let me know what you think :)

I like Rohan and Navin. My DD has an Indian origin name: Jayan. We
pronounce it Jay Anne, but I love the name and the spelling. I think
Indians pronounce it Jai-an. Either way, it is an easy name to spell
and say.

Jayan can be for a girl or a boy. It means Victory. The male Jayan
is from the root name Jay (which I think comes for Shiva). The female
is from the root name Jaya (which is another name for Durga).

Just a suggestion! For other suggestions, I found some links of
Indian names:

for Indian names that can be pronounced by foreigners)

Rohan,Neil

Neil and Rohan are Indian names? I can see how maybe the same Rohan
spelling as the celtic one could be also Indian but Neil?


Well Neil as a Celtic name is actually an anglicisation of Niall which is
pronounced as Neil in Gaelic linguistics.

And the Celtic Rowan is spelled with the W in the middle, not an H. I've
seen Rohan as an Indian name before.
