A Sanskrit name gently fading from the charts.
Vrishank is a boy's baby name of Sanskrit origin, derived from the elements meaning 'bull' or relating to Vrishabha (the bull), one of the sacred symbols of Lord Shiva. In Hindu iconography, Nandi the bull is Shiva's divine vehicle and devotee.
Vrishank carries the strength and sacred symbolism of bull imagery in Shaivite tradition — a name that connects a son to one of Hinduism's most ancient and powerful iconographic traditions.
Vrishank has 17+ years of history in the U.S., first appearing in 2003.
