Samsara

In Indian religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism, Samsara is the concept of rebirth and the cyclicality of life: in other words, a pretty fundamental principle. It has occasionally been used as a name, and its similarity to other English names like Sara and Samantha — as well as its spiritual meaning — make it an appealing choice.

Pronounced sum-SAR-uh.

As of October 2026, Samsara ranked #14922 in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #12538 in 2004.
