    Simple Jain guidance for naming

    • Many Jain families choose names of Tirthankars, Ganadhars, or Dev‑Devis.
    • Names based on virtues (Ahimsa, Shanti, Vinay, Vivek, etc.) are highly appreciated.
    • Avoid names linked to violence, pride, or intoxication in meaning.

    You can choose any of these or combine (for example: Arham Veer, Dhruv Shreyans, Arihant Tej) to form a modern yet deeply Jain name.
