Meaning and origin of Padmesh
Padmesh joins padma, 'lotus', with isha, 'lord', giving 'lord of the lotus'. Hindu texts connect the lotus with several gods: Vishnu holds one in his hand, Brahma is born from a lotus springing from Vishnu's navel, and Lakshmi sits upon one. Because of this, the name is usually explained as a title of Vishnu, though some families take it as referring to Brahma or simply to the sun, which opens the lotus each morning. It is a modern-sounding compound of a type common in Hindi naming.
