Ganda Lal

Ganda Lal (sometimes spelled as Ganga Lal or Gandalal) is a common given name, particularly found in South Asia, specifically in India and Nepal. It is predominantly a Hindu name. The name typically comprises two elements: "Ganda" (or Ganga) and "Lal."

• Ganda/Ganga: "Ganga" refers to the Ganges, a major river considered sacred in Hinduism. It symbolizes purity, life, and auspiciousness. In some regions, "Ganda" might be a colloquial or shortened form of "Ganga".

• Lal: "Lal" is a Hindi/Nepali word meaning "dear," "beloved," or "red." It's often used as a term of endearment or to convey the idea of something precious.

Therefore, a general interpretation of the name "Ganda Lal" or "Ganga Lal" would be "dear Ganga" or "beloved Ganga," invoking the sacred river and expressing affection or reverence. The name may be given to a child with the intention of associating them with the positive qualities and blessings of the Ganges River. The name is primarily used for males. Variations in spelling are common due to regional dialect differences.
