Thinking about the name
Arun
Sanskrit origin
“A Sanskrit name meaning 'the sun' or 'dawn,' Arun symbolizes new beginnings, light, and radiance. In Hindu mythology, Arun is the charioteer of the sun god Surya, adding mythological prestige to an already luminous name. It's widely used across India and carries both simplicity and depth.”
