Ramkishor is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.
Ramkishor is a male given name from the Indian subcontinent, formed from Sanskrit Rama (राम) + Kishora (किशोर). Rama, from the root ram- “to delight,” names the revered hero-deity of the Ramayana; kishora means “youthful, adolescent.” Together they signify “youthful Rama” or “one who delights with youthful freshness,” a typical theophoric compound pairing a deity with an attribute.
Used across Hindi-, Marathi-, Bengali-, and Nepali-speaking communities and popularized in the Bhakti era, the name occurs in both two-word and fused spellings. Variants and transliterations include Ram Kishor, Ram Kishore, Ramkishore, Ramakishor, and Ramakishore; in Devanagari it appears as राम किशोर/रामकिशोर. Though Kishor/Kishore is also an epithet of Krishna, in this compound the referent is Rama, and the name remains familiar in North and Central India today.
