Meaning & origin

Siddarth entered U.S. records only in 1995, making it a relatively recent addition to the American naming landscape. The name's peak year was 2010, after which its usage stabilized, with the trajectory indicating steady, low-frequency use. As a variant of the well-known Siddhartha, the name carries deep spiritual and philosophical resonance, yet remains uncommon enough to feel distinctive. While its one-in-N ratio is not available due to low occurrence, the name's consistent appearance in birth data suggests a dedicated following among families valuing its Sanskrit origins and cultural significance.

Siddarth is a variant of Siddhartha, deriving from the Sanskrit elements 'siddha' (accomplished, fulfilled) and 'artha' (purpose, wealth). In Buddhism, Siddhartha Gautama was the given name of the Buddha before his enlightenment. The name has been used in India for centuries and gained broader awareness in the West through spiritual and literary works. The spelling Siddarth is a common simplified variant, especially among South Asian diaspora communities.
