4. Ryan: This name literally means a King. It is originally a Christian baby boy name that has now become global. Although the name does not have an Indian origin, parents are naming their kids Ryan these days. It is important for a name to be pronounceable globally these days because kids usually go abroad to study or work.
5. Dev: Silly as it sounds, daily soaps also inspire naming trends these days. Dev happens to be name of at least a dozen soap opera heroes. So this Indian baby name is a hot property these days.
