From Sanskrit origins to Hollywood fame, the name Priyanka has come a long way. Meaning “amiable” and “beloved,” this name is perfect for the bundle of joy who’s about to warm your heart. Little Priyanka is sure to be loved by you from the moment they enter the world, and with a name as sweet as this, they are bound to share their amity with the world. Although actress Priyanka Chopra’s star has risen to fame over the last decade, it seems her name hasn’t quite followed the same path.
