Hastin First Name Meaning

Hastin is a male name of Indian origin, meaning "Elephant." The term "Hastin" is derived from the Sanskrit word for 'elephant,' as used in Vedic texts such as the Rigveda and Atharvaveda. In the Rigveda, the term "Mrga Hastin" is translated as 'elephant.' Additionally, other terms used for 'elephant' in Vedic texts include Ibha and Vārana. The significance of elephants in South Asian culture is evident in references to both wild and domesticated elephants in Hindu texts. The Akananuru and Purananuru mention the raising and training of elephants in ancient Tamilagam's northern boundary.
