Aadesh meaning

Aadesh (आदेश) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin.

Advice, instruction; declaration; rule, command, order

Aadesh (आदेश) comes from Sanskrit ādeśa, a noun formed from ā- and the verb diś, "to point out, to direct". Monier-Williams gives its senses as advice and instruction, information or a formal declaration, a prediction, and a rule, command or order. Sanskrit grammarians also use ādeśa for a form that is substituted for another sound or word. In Hindi and most Indian languages ādesh still means an order or an instruction, and name lists give the name as "command" or "order", which matches the dictionary. The name is used by Hindu families across North and West India.
