Sangram meaning

Sangram (संग्राम) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin.

Battle, war, combat; (Atharva Veda) a host, an army

Sangram (संग्राम) is Sanskrit saṃgrāma. In the Atharva Veda it means an assembly or host of people, an army, and from there it came to mean a battle, war, fight or combat, its usual sense in the epics; Monier-Williams also records it as the name of various men in Kashmiri chronicles and catalogues. The name is best known from Rana Sanga, Sangram Singh of Mewar, the Rajput ruler who fought Babur at Khanwa in 1527. Name lists give "battle" or "war", matching the dictionary.
