Rajath is an Indian masculine given name derived from Sanskrit rajata, meaning “silver,” and by extension “shining” or “white.” The term appears throughout classical Sanskrit to denote the metal silver, sacred in Vedic ritual and widely used in ornament and coinage; it also serves poetically as an epithet for the moon and other lustrous objects. As a personal name it has seen steady use across modern India, with Rajath especially common in southern states where English transliteration often renders the dental t as th, while the pan-Indian spelling Rajat predominates in the north.

Principal variants include Rajat (standard Hindi form) and Rajata (Sanskritized form); compound forms such as Rajath Kumar also occur. Related feminine names include Rajitha, carrying the sense of brightness. Nicknames often shorten to Raj. The name’s luminous meaning lends associations of purity, clarity, prosperity, and the cool radiance of moonlight.
