Sarang is Hindi, Korean, Sanskrit in Origin.
With two distinct roots, Sarang is both a Korean and South Asian given name. In Korean, Sarang (사랑) is the native word for “love”; while not a traditional personal name, it has gained modern unisex use and media visibility, signaling affection and warmth. In the Indic sphere, Sarang derives from Sanskrit sāraṅga, a poetic term meaning “the spotted one,” applied to the deer, peacock, and bee, and also the name of Vishnu’s bow (Śārṅga). The name appears in medieval South Asia - note the 13th‑century musicologist Śārṅgadeva.
Meanings therefore range from “love” (Korean) to “peacock/deer; musical; devoted” (Indic). Sarang also titles a family of Hindustani classical ragas (e.g., Shuddha/Brindavani Sarang), linking it to melody and the monsoon. Variants and spellings include Saranga, Saarang/Sārang, Sharang, and Shāranga; scripts include 사랑, सारंग/शारंग, and سارنگ. Usage is predominantly masculine in India and unisex in Korea.
