Reply:How about Arshad? it means 'brave lion' in Arabic.


or Ishaaq it means Isaac : )
Reply:i actually wanted to name my baby boy Ishaan but had to reject it coz i my mom said it was a muslim name. so i guess it must be an arabic name.
Reply:'Ishan' exist in both Hindi and Urdu, and means very different things.





in Urdu, Ishan probably means the sun (i assume akasma is partially correct)





in sanskrit (or hindi), Ishan is the name of of the ten directions referred to in Hindu mythology. (there are only 4 in Geography, but 10 in ancient sanskrit texts)





In India, the usage of Ishan as a name is predominantly hindi.


Hence, even though ishan has a valid meaning in arabic, it is not a very practical arabic name.
Reply:go with something u both can decide on
Reply:Its more Sanskrit or hindi than arabic .......

Reply:Go to babynamesworld.com and put a description of the baby and maybe it will tell you just a right name for her. Or just talk and decide with your husband.:)

Reply:Ishaan itself is actually Hindi, meaning "the sun." Ishan (as you had both spellings in your question) Is similar to Ihsan (transpose the S and H) which is actually a variant of Ahsan, which is Arabic for "perfection" or "excellence." So by using either Ihsan or Ahsan, you are using an Arabic name.





I like your choice by the way, I think it's a great name. Play with it a little, and maybe poke around the source website. You might find an acceptable name for both of you.
