The use of Sanskrit as a foundational language for many Indian names can be traced back to ancient texts, including the Vedas and Upanishads, which date back to around 1500 BCE to 500 BCE. These texts not only shaped the spiritual and philosophical thought of the time but also influenced naming conventions that persist in various forms today.
