Dang is a boy’s name that’s of Thai origin. The unique name is little-used, meaning “red” and “valuable.” It goes without saying that this little boy will be a truly precious addition to your home, and his name will be the perfect reminder of that. In Thai culture, the color red represents Sunday, the sun, and the god Surya. This deity is said to have ridden his chariot across the sky to defeat the demons of darkness. While nighttime may bring a fear of the dark to other little ones, baby Dang only has to think of his name to know that there aren’t any monsters lurking under his bed.
