What is the meaning of the name Piush ?

Piush is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Piush is a South Asian masculine given name, ultimately from Sanskrit pīyūṣa (पीयूष), meaning “nectar,” “ambrosia,” or “milk.” The term evokes the life-giving elixir (amṛta) of Hindu myth - especially the churning of the ocean - and, in poetry, can denote sweetness, purity, and vitality. As a personal name it appears across Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, and Nepali contexts, with positive, auspicious overtones and associations with nourishment and longevity.

The most common modern spelling is Piyush; other transliterations include Peeush and Piyoush, while Piyusha occurs as a feminine variant. In regional scripts the name maps to forms like पीयूष (Hindi/Marathi) and পিউষ (Bengali). Usage rose in the 20th century and is widespread among Hindu and Jain families. Not to be confused with the Latin name Pius (“pious”), Piush/Piyush specifically preserves the Sanskrit sense of “nectar” and “life-sustaining sweetness.”
