Marut is Hindu, Sanskrit in Origin.
Marut is a masculine given name of Sanskrit and Vedic origin, from marut, the collective name for the storm deities who accompany Indra in the Rigveda. The term denotes the rushing wind and tempest; by extension the name conveys meanings such as “storm,” “wind,” “thunderous,” and “roaring one.” In Vedic hymns the Maruts are depicted as radiant, youthful warriors, children of Rudra and Prisni, wielding lightning and bringing rain, so the name carries connotations of vitality, force, and protection.
As a personal name, Marut is used in India and the broader Hindu diaspora, though it remains relatively uncommon. Variant and related forms include Maruta (Sanskrit), Maarut (transliterated), and Maruti, a popular theophoric epithet of Hanuman that traces the bearer’s lineage to the wind-god. The name appears across Indo-Aryan languages with similar pronunciation, and modern usage often appeals to parents seeking a concise, mythologically grounded name with elemental strength.
