What is the meaning of the name Dasras ?

The baby name Dasras is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈdɑːs.rɑːs/ (DAHS-RAHS).

Dasras is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Dasras is a modern given name drawn from Sanskrit Dāśra (दाश्र), an epithet of the Vedic Ashvin twins, divine horsemen and physicians of the gods. In the Rigveda, Dāśra is frequently glossed as “wondrous,” “efficacious,” or “skillful,” highlighting the Ashvins’ swift aid and healing powers; by extension, the name conveys “miracle-working helper” or “accomplished one.”

While the theonym is ancient, use as a personal name is rare but growing among South Asian families seeking Vedic or mythic resonance; it is typically masculine but can be unisex. Common variants include Dasra (more standard in Indological sources), Dāśra/Dāsra (scholarly transliterations), Dashra, and Dasrah; the related elements Ashvin/Asvin and Nasatya are thematically linked rather than direct variants. Because Das (from Sanskrit dāsa, “servant”) is widespread as a surname, some bearers adopt Dasras to avoid confusion and to signal the older Vedic sense.
