Shivraj Gohil is Indian in Origin.

Shivraj Gohil pairs a Sanskrit given name with a Gujarati Rajput surname. Shivraj combines śiva (“auspicious; the god Shiva”) and rāj(a) (“king; rule”), conveying “Shiva’s reign,” “auspicious ruler,” or “king blessed by Shiva.” Used across Hindi-, Marathi-, Gujarati-, and Nepali-speaking communities from the medieval period onward, it appears in royal and modern civic contexts. Common variants include Shivaraj, Shivraaj, and the spaced form Shiva Raj.

Gohil marks affiliation with the Gohil/Gohel Rajput clan of Saurashtra (Kathiawar), historically tied to the Guhil/Gahlot lineage and princely states such as Bhavnagar. The surname reflects Gujarati/Prakrit development of a Sanskrit dynastic name and carries clan identity rather than a dictionary meaning. Together, Shivraj Gohil suggests “a Shiva-favored ruler of the Gohil line,” fusing religious auspiciousness with Rajput heritage. Variant full forms include Shivaraj Gohel.
