Sajen is a modern variant of Sajan, a South Asian given name widely used in Hindi, Urdu, and Punjabi, where sājan (साजन/ساجن) means “beloved” or “sweetheart,” a staple term in folk songs and romantic poetry. The name is typically masculine but has seen occasional unisex use in contemporary contexts. While “Sajen” is chiefly an alternative transliteration or stylistic spelling favored in the diaspora, the core sense remains affectionate and intimate.

Variants and related forms include Sajan, Saajan, and Sajjan (the latter from Sanskrit sajjana, “virtuous, good person,” sometimes treated as a distinct name). Diminutives such as Saj and Saji appear in English-speaking settings. Usage outside South Asia rose in the late 20th century with increased global migration. Note that in Indonesian/Javanese, sajen/sesajen refers to ritual offerings; this is a separate word with different origins, though its visibility can color regional perception of the name.
