Kanhaiyya Lal is Indian in Origin.
Kanhaiyya Lal is a North Indian male compound name from Hindi and Braj Bhasha. Kanhaiyya (also Kanhaiya) is an affectionate diminutive of Kanha, a vernacular form of Krishna, widely used in Braj devotional poetry; it conveys the playful, child aspect of the deity. Lal comes from Hindi/Urdu lāl, borrowed from Persian for “ruby; red,” and by extension “beloved child, dear boy.” Together, the name means “beloved Kanhaiya” or “dear little Krishna.”
The compound gained prominence with Vaishnava Bhakti traditions in the Hindi belt, and has been common in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, and neighboring regions from the 19th–20th centuries onward as a formal given name; Lal may also function as a middle or family name. Variants include Kanhaiya Lal, Kanhaiyalal, Kanhiyalal, Kanhaialal, and Kanhaiyya Lal; related short forms are Kanhaiya, Kanha, and Krishna.
Kanhaiyya Lal is about as rare as a name gets. In all, it appears just 1 time, across 1 country.
