Sharadh is a modern South Asian masculine given name, a spelling variant of Sharad, from Sanskrit śarad “autumn, the clear season after the rains.” It evokes crisp skies, harvest, and the luminous full moon of Sharad Purnima, hence connotations of clarity, maturity, and auspiciousness.

Used across Hindi- and Marathi-speaking communities and beyond since the late 19th century, the name spread further in the 20th-century pan-Indian and diaspora context. Variant forms include Sharad (standard), Sarad (Nepali), Sarat (Bengali, Odia, Assamese), and the feminine Sharada/Sharda; related elaborations are Sharadchandra/Sharatchandra (“autumn moon”). While Sharadh remains the less common orthography, it is readily understood as the same name. Notable cultural touchpoints include classical Sanskrit poetry’s śarada imagery and festivals of the autumn season, reinforcing the name’s serene, radiant meaning.
