Tejesh

Tejesh is a masculine given name of Indian origin commonly used by speakers of several Indian languages and by members of the Indian diaspora. The name is generally interpreted as meaning "radiant," "bright," or "brilliant," and it is linked to the Sanskrit root teja, which denotes brightness or glow. Tejesh is part of a broader family of names formed from teja with various suffixes and spellings, including Tejas, Tejash, Tejesh, and Tejeshwar. The exact transliteration tends to vary by region, language, and tradition, so different spellings may refer to the same name.

In usage, Tejesh is typically given to boys and appears across multiple communities in India, without a strict regional association. It reflects a common naming pattern in which Sanskrit-derived words for positive attributes such as brightness and vitality are used to convey auspicious qualities for the bearer.

Variations and related names include Tejas, Tejash, Tejeshwar, and Tejendra, among others. These forms share the same root meaning and are popular in different linguistic and cultural communities within the Indian subcontinent and in diaspora communities around the world.
