Yashpal is Hindi, Sanskrit in Origin.
Yashpal is a North Indian masculine name written यशपाल in Devanagari, a Hindi form of the Sanskrit compound Yaśapāla. Its elements are yaśas, a neuter noun for fame, renown, or glory, and pāla, keeper or protector, from the verbal root pā, to guard or preserve. In compound formation yaśas loses its final -s before pāla, giving yaśa-pāla; the literal sense is protector of fame.
The name belongs to the Sanskritic naming stock used in Hindi, Punjabi, Marathi, Nepali, and other Indo-Aryan contexts, with Malayalam and other Dravidian languages usually adopting it by transliteration. It appears among modern Indian public figures, including Hindi novelist Yashpal and actor Yashpal Sharma, which reflects twentieth-century secular usage alongside Hindu family naming. Spellings vary with romanization: Yash Pal, Yashpaul, Yashapala, and diacritic Yaśapāla. In contemporary use it is more familiar in northern India than in English-speaking countries.
