The naming of a child is one of the most fundamental Hindu "samskars" or scripture based rites. The name is selected in such a way that its meaning can inspire the child to follow the path of righteousness. It is a most common practice among Hindus to name their children after the names of god-goddess, saints, places, ragas, leaders, deities, historical events, rivers, seasons etc. It is believed that by repeatedly calling such names one is reminded of the Lord.
