Ujas meaning
Ujas (उजास) is a Hindu boy's name of Gujarati origin. By its first sound, उ, it is a Vrishabh rashi name (Krittika nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
Light, brightness, radiance; also zest, enthusiasm
Also used to mean: first light
Ujas (उजास, Gujarati ઉજાસ) is an everyday Gujarati word for light. The Gujarati dictionary glosses it as brightness, lustre, radiance and gleam, and also, figuratively, as zest and enthusiasm. Name lists give Ujas as light or brightness, and some as "first light", a poetic reading of daybreak rather than a separate dictionary sense. Ujas is used mainly for boys in Gujarati families, and it sits comfortably beside older Sanskrit light names such as Ujjwal and Prakash.
