Aaryan, a variant of Aryan, is a popular and regal Indian boy’s name derived from the Sanskrit term "ārya," meaning "noble," "high-born," or "superior." This name has been used extensively in India and among Iranian communities. It is also used as a surname and has gained popularity globally due to its positive connotations and rhythmic sound.
