Brijmohan is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.
Brijmohan is a masculine Indian theophoric name formed from Brij/Braj, Hindi for the Sanskrit Vraja, the pastoral region of Mathura-Vrindavan, and Mohan, from Sanskrit mohana "enchanting, charmer," a famed epithet of Krishna. Together it conveys "the Enchanter of Braj," i.e., Lord Krishna, or "Krishna who enchants the land of Braj," and by extension suggests charm, devotion, and cultural roots in the Krishna tradition.
Used primarily among Hindi- and Braj-speaking Hindus, the name has circulated in North India for centuries, buoyed by Krishna-bhakti culture around Mathura and Vrindavan, and saw steady modern usage in the 19th-20th centuries. Variants and spellings include Brij Mohan (two words), Brajmohan, Vrajamohan (Sanskritized), and diaspora forms such as Brijmohun; common short forms are Brij and Birju. Notable bearers include industrialist Brijmohan Lall Munjal and the legendary Kathak maestro Brijmohan Nath Mishra ("Birju Maharaj").
