Chandria

US Popularity Rank: 11307

Origin: Indian

Meaning: Moon shining

Chandria is a girl-given name of Sanskrit and Hindi origin, meaning “moon shining.” This radiant name stirs up visuals of the bright, celestial being, as its variant, Chandra, refers to the Hindu god of the moon. One of the nine Navagrahas of Hinduism and holding power over plants and nightfall, Chandra is a force to be reckoned with. Chandria is the perfect choice for parents looking for a name with lunar qualities while retaining uniqueness through spelling and pronunciation. Illuminated and defined by the moon, baby Chandria is on a path to creating an empire of their own. As a variant of the American moniker Shandra, this planetary name can be just as appealing to the people of Earth.
