Salaar Origin and Meaning

The name Salaar is a boy's name meaning "leader".

Likely inspired by the 2023 Indian action movie, Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire, Salaar more than doubled in use in the US between 2023 and 2024. Given to 50 babies in a recent count, the name is the alias of the central character, played by actor Prabhas.
