About the Name Abhimanyu

Abhimanyu (अभिमन्यु) is best known as the son of Arjuna and Subhadra in the Mahabharata. Apte’s Sanskrit dictionary identifies him through this family relationship. It is a personal name with a literary and religious association.

The hero’s story gives the name associations with courage, but son of Arjuna is an identification of the character, not a literal translation of the word. This entry does not treat fearless or heroic warrior as a securely established etymology.

Important Note

The Rashi and Nakshatra shown on this page are general associations based on the initial sound of the name. The actual Rashi and Nakshatra of a child depend on the exact date, time and place of birth.
