Rajus is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.
Rooted in the Sanskrit rāja “king; rule,” Rajus is a modern variant related to the Indian given name Raju. The added -s mirrors Baltic masculine endings (as in Lithuanian names like Marius or Darius), so Rajus can serve as a Lithuanianized or international form while preserving the core meaning “royal,” “kingly,” or “ruler.”
As a given name, it is rare; in South Asia the base form Raju is far more common, and Rajus more often appears as a family or collective name. Contemporary usage of Rajus surfaces in the Indian diaspora and occasionally in Baltic name registers where foreign names take -us. Close variants and short forms include Raju, Raj, and Raja; extended relatives are Rajesh, Rajendra, and Rajiv. Possible feminine counterparts are Rani and Rajika. Spelling may appear with a diacritic as Rājus to reflect the long vowel of Sanskrit rāja.
