What is the meaning of the name Anbarasan ?

The baby name Anbarasan is a Male name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced ahn-buh-RAH-suhn (IPA: /ənbəˈrɑːsən/).

Anbarasan is Tamil in Origin.

Anbarasan is a masculine Tamil given name (அன்பரசன்), from the Dravidian language Tamil, built from anbu “love, affection” + arasan “king.” The compound conveys “king of love” or “one whose rule is love,” and by extension a leader marked by kindness and magnanimity. In speech it is typically pronounced Ahn-buh-ruh-sun, with the u of anbu assimilating to a in sandhi.

As a virtue-title compound, Anbarasan aligns with long-standing Tamil naming patterns that pair moral qualities with royal or dignified nouns. While the elements are attested in classical literature, the compound itself is most common in modern usage among Tamil communities in India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, and Singapore, with diaspora spread worldwide. Variants and related forms include Anbarasu (using arasu “kingdom/sovereignty”), the diminutives Anbu and Arasan, and the feminine counterpart Anbarasi. Alternate spellings such as Anbarassan also appear.
