Rajan is a male given name rooted in the Sanskrit rāja (“king”), conveying connotations of leadership and nobility. In Hindi, it is pronounced rah-JAHN (/rɑːˈdʒɑːn/). U.S. Social Security records from 1966 through 2024 show Rajan as a niche but persistent choice: annual occurrences have ranged from 5 to 31 births, with rankings oscillating between roughly the 630th and 930th positions—most recently registering 13 births and a rank of 911 in 2024. While it will not dominate any classroom roster, this steady pattern highlights its appeal to parents seeking a name that honors Indian cultural heritage while retaining a distinctive foothold in an Anglo-American naming landscape.
