Kaveesh

Origin

Derived from South Asian origins, particularly Indian, where 'Kaveesh' (also spelled Kaveesh or Kavesh) means 'king' or 'lord'. The name is rooted in Sanskrit, with 'Kav' meaning 'poet' or 'seed' and 'eesh' meaning 'god' or 'lord'. It is common among Indian communities and has gained recognition among Australian multicultural populations, especially within Indian-Australian communities.

Meaning

Literal translation: 'King' or 'Royal Lord'. In Australian English contexts, it connotes leadership, strength, and respect, often chosen by parents desiring a regal or noble connotation for their son.

Pronunciation
