Madhavan Name Details

The name Madhavan is of Indian origin and is derived from Sanskrit. It is a combination of two words, 'madhu' meaning 'sweet' or 'honey' and 'avan' meaning 'one who possesses'. Therefore, Madhavan translates to 'one who possesses sweetness' or 'sweet lord'. The name holds strong religious significance as it is one of the many names of Lord Krishna, who is revered in Hindu mythology. Lord Krishna is known for his divine qualities, charming personality, and enchanting flute playing. The name Madhavan is often given to boys in South India, especially among Tamil and Malayalam-speaking communities.
