9. Devdan. With a meaning of 'gift of the gods', this name is especially indicated for those babies who have been waiting for a long time.

10. Vishnu. Another of the Hindu gods, in this case the protector of the universe. The name has a meaning of 'omnipresent' and is not strange because of the popularity of Indian mythology.
