Chaths is in Origin.
Chaths is a rare modern given name, usually unisex, that seems to arise as a clipped and stylized form of Sinhala names beginning with Chath-. In Sri Lankan usage, that stem traces back to Sanskrit chatura, “clever, skillful” (related to chatur, “four”), which informs meanings like “wise, adept,” or “multi-talented.” The final -s reads as a contemporary flourish, giving the name a brisk, modern finish.
Documented usage is limited and largely 21st-century, appearing in the Sri Lankan diaspora. Parents who like Chaths often also consider longer Sinhala forms: Chathura (m), Chathuranga (m), Chathurika and Chathuni (f), as well as short forms Chath and Chathu; informal “Chats” occurs. Because it resembles English nickname Chas (from Charles), the name sometimes reads cross-cultural, but it sits most naturally within the Chath- family and its “clever/skillful” sense.
Chaths does not appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. This usually means it's either extremely rare, a regional/traditional name not captured by official statistics, or a brand-new coinage. Use it knowing your child will almost certainly be the only one in the room.
