Rama is a gender-neutral name of Sanskrit origin and considerable prominence within Hindu texts. A short form of Ramachandra, Rama represents Vishnu's most popular reincarnation and, in his honor, means "pleasing,” “delightful,” “beautiful,” and “charming." The leading hero of the Sanskrit epic Ramayana, Rama is the very embodiment of chivalry and reason. Known for his unrivaled love for his wife Sita, Vishnu's seventh avatar famously defeats a demon and immense forces of evil in pursuit of her rescue. Invigorated with divine strength and virtue, Rama will no doubt steer your little one towards a path of distinction worthy of worship.
