Ramkishwar is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.

Ramkishwar is a North Indian masculine compound from Indo-Aryan/Sanskrit roots. It most often blends Ram (Rama, the revered epic hero and deity) with Kishor/Kishore (Sanskrit kishora, “youth; adolescent”), yielding a devotional sense such as “Rama the youthful” or “one made youthful through Rama.” In some regions the final -kishwar is reinterpreted by analogy with -ishwar (Ishvara, “lord, god”), so the name is also taken to mean “Rama is Lord” or “he whose lord is Rama.”

Attested across Hindi, Bhojpuri, and Maithili communities since the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the name appears in civil records and public life in northern and eastern India, with some usage in Nepal.
