Baby names inspired by ancient Indian mountains: Meaningful names rooted in nature, mythology and India’s rich cultural heritage

Adrija carries the same idea, “born of the mountain”, but with a lighter, more modern feel. It is formed from “adri”, meaning mountain, and “ja”, meaning born, and it too is associated with Parvati. It is short, melodic and easy to pronounce in almost any language, and it is rarely used, so it suits parents who want a name that is meaningful, traditional and not heard in every classroom.
