Rajan is a masculine name of Sanskrit origin, meaning 'king' or 'royal.' This regal name has been used for centuries in India and other South Asian countries, reflecting its deep cultural roots. While traditional in India, Rajan has gained some international recognition in recent decades as global naming patterns have diversified. The name carries connotations of leadership, dignity, and authority. In Hindu traditions, it can also relate to Rajyoga, a spiritual practice aimed at sovereignty over the self. Though not among the most common international names, Rajan remains a popular choice for families with South Asian heritage who seek a name with both cultural significance and accessible pronunciation.
