History & Origin

Vedavid is Sanskrit for 'knower of the Vedas', joining veda — knowledge, and the name of Hinduism's oldest sacred texts — with vid, 'to know'. In classical usage it was an epithet for a learned person steeped in scripture. As a given name it is uncommon and carries clear scholarly weight, and because it refers to sacred texts we treat it respectfully (said 'VAY-duh-vid').

In the U.S. it appears only rarely. Rare, learned, and distinctive.

Did you know? Vedavid is a real Sanskrit word — vedavid, 'a knower of the Vedas'. Both halves come from the same ancient root for knowing, so the name is learning twice over. We note the scriptural reference respectfully (said 'VAY-duh-vid').
