Dipak is an attractive and distinctive given name of Sanskrit origin, meaning 'lamp' or 'light'. It is often associated with wisdom, knowledge, and enlightenment in Hindu culture. Spelling variations include Deepak and Dheepak. While it has traditionally been more common among individuals of Indian descent, Dipak is increasingly appearing worldwide due to its appealing sound and meaningful symbolism.
Dipak is a unique and uncommon name, with only five babies being given this name in the United States in the year 1972. This means that out of all the babies born that year, Dipak was chosen as the first name for just five of them. It's interesting to note that this low number of births is not typical for other years, making Dipak quite distinctive among American baby names from that time period.
