Rakesh Name Details

The name Rakesh originates from Sanskrit and is commonly used in Hindu culture. It is derived from the combination of two Sanskrit words, 'Raka' meaning 'full moon' and 'Isha' meaning 'lord' or 'ruler'. Therefore, Rakesh can be interpreted as 'Lord of the full moon'. This name is often bestowed upon boys with the hope that they will possess qualities associated with the moon, such as radiance, tranquility, and calmness.
