Meaning
From “pra” (forth, intense) + “dīpa” (lamp, light, flame)
Literally: “light that shines forth”, “lantern”, or “illuminating lamp”
Figuratively: guidance, knowledge, enlightenment, hope
Usage in Indian languages
Hindi/Sanskrit: “lamp” or “light of knowledge”
Bengali: pronounced Prôdeep, same meaning
Tamil/Malayalam/Kannada/Telugu: Pradheepan / Pradeeban also exist as variants
Gujarati/Marathi: used with same sense of “guiding light”
It’s one of those names that’s pan-Indian, devotional, and very “classic middle/upper-class” — like naming someone Beacon or Illuminator in English. |
