Anshumohan is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Anshumohan is a modern Sanskrit-derived masculine name from South Asia, formed from aṃśu (“ray, beam of light; sunbeam”) + mohan (“enchanting, captivating”), from the root √muh “to bewilder.” The compound evokes “he whose radiance enchants,” “charmed by light,” or “enchanter through beams,” linking it poetically to imagery of the sun (Surya) and to Mohan, an epithet of Krishna. Though both elements are ancient in Vedic and classical literature, the combined form appears chiefly as a contemporary, creative coinage in Hindi- and Nepali-speaking communities, with occasional use across India.

Recorded variants include Anshu Mohan (spaced), Aṃśumohan (with diacritics), and the Bengali-influenced Angshumohan. Related names are Anshuman/Angshuman (“sun”), Mohan, and Anshul. Nicknames: Anshu, Ansh, Mohan. Devanagari: अंशुमोहन.
