Paramesh meaning
Paramesh (परमेश) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin.
Supreme lord, the Supreme Being; a name of Viṣṇu
Paramesh (परमेश) is the Sanskrit parameśa, from parama, "highest, supreme", and īśa, "lord". Monier-Williams gives it as "supreme lord" or "the Supreme Being" and notes its use as a name of Viṣṇu in the Mahābhārata. Name lists give "supreme lord". It is a shorter sister of Parameshwar, "supreme God", which is used especially for Shiva. Paramesh is used across India.
In Hindu tradition this is a name of Vishnu.
