Tarush meaning
Tarush (तरुष) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin (Vedic).
A conqueror, overcomer
Also used to mean: winner
Tarush (तरुष) is the Vedic Sanskrit taruṣa, which Monier-Williams gives as "a conqueror" or "an overcomer", citing two hymns of the Ṛg-veda. A related feminine word, taruṣī, means "victory" in the Sāma-veda. Name lists give Tarush, also spelled Taarush, as "conqueror" or "winner", which matches the dictionary; the occasional glosses "ocean" and "small plant" do not. The word is very old; as a name it has a short, crisp sound, close to Tarun and Tushar.
