A few notes to help you choose:
- Many Jain boy names are drawn from Tirthankaras (e.g., Mahavira, Parshva, Neminath) or from Sanskrit roots that denote virtue (peace, purity, light, strength).
- If you prefer a name tied to a specific Jain tradition (Digambar or Shwetambar), tell me and I can suggest options typically favored in that tradition.
- If you want modern-sounding yet distinctly Jain, I can create compound names using Sanskrit roots related to Jain virtues (e.g., “Shri” or “Vira” + a virtue).
Would you like me to tailor the list to a particular starting letter, length, or meaning (e.g., peace, courage, purity) or provide pronunciation guides?
