Derived from Sanskrit, 'Devendra' is an intriguing given name of Indian origin. It translates to 'king of the gods', reflecting a celestial connotation that adds a touch of grandeur and mystique. The name Devendra is composed of two elements: 'Dev', meaning god, and 'indra', which signifies ruler or lord. This compelling moniker has been historically associated with figures of power and divinity in Indian mythology and culture.
Over a span of twenty-seven years (1991 to 2018), the name Devendra experienced periods of consistent popularity and a recent surge. Between 1991 and 1997, it maintained steady usage with six births each year. There was then a decade-long gap before it resurfaced in 2017 with another six births. Notably, in just one year later, in 2018, there were eight babies named Devendra, indicating a significant uptick in its popularity during that time. In total, throughout this period, twenty-six children were given the name Devendra.
