Pratyush is of Indian origin, derived from Sanskrit 'pratyuṣ' which means 'clear', 'radiant', or 'beautiful'. It is composed of two parts: 'prati' meaning 'towards' and 'yuṣ' meaning 'light'. The name Pratyush implies the idea of light approaching or being directed towards something, suggesting brightness or clarity.
"Pratyush saw a steady increase in births from 5 per year initially up to 17 in 2007, followed by fluctuations but generally maintained an average of around 8-9 births per year since 2016."
