Buddhism is one of the oldest religions in the world and it has a rich history and culture. One of the things that makes Buddhism unique is its baby names. Buddhist baby names are not only beautiful, but they also have deep meanings.

There are a wide variety of Buddhist baby names to choose from, each with its own special meaning. For example, the name “Amitabha” means “infinite light,” while “Bodhidharma” means “awakened one.”

No matter what name you choose for your little one, it is sure to be a beautiful and meaningful addition to your family.
