Ramkisor is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.
Ramkisor is a North and East Indian masculine given name, a regional spelling of Ramkishor/Ramkishore. It blends Ram (Sanskrit Rama, the revered avatar of Vishnu) with Kisor/Kishor, from Sanskrit kishora meaning "adolescent, youthful." The compound carries senses such as "youthful Rama" or "one youthful in devotion to Rama," a typical theophoric formation pairing a deity’s name with an epithet.
Use appears in Hindi-, Bhojpuri-, Maithili-, and Bengali-speaking communities, where the palatal sh in Kishor is often simplified to s, yielding Kisor and the fused Ramkisor. The name has steady regional currency, especially in Vaishnava families, and today is found across North India, Nepal, and the diaspora. Common variants include Ram Kishor (two-word), Ramkishor, Ramkishore, and the devotional form Ramkishor Das; related standalone names include Kishor/Kishore, which may also function as a surname in some communities.
