Indresh meaning
Indresh (इन्द्रेश) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin.
Meaning today
Lord of Indra, king of the gods
In the dictionaries
We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Indresh (इन्द्रेश) joins two Sanskrit words: indra, the name of the king of the Vedic gods, and īśa, "lord, master". Name lists give it as "lord of Indra" or "king of the gods". Since indra on its own can also mean "chief" or "best", the name works as a doubled title of honour. Monier-Williams does not record the compound, so the meaning is built from its parts rather than found as a word. It sits in the same family as Indra, Indrajit and Indraneel.
