Meaning and origin of Ranajoy
Ranajoy is the Bengali form of Ranajay, from raṇa 'battle' and jaya 'victory'. Bengali pronounces the Sanskrit jaya as joy, so the English look of the ending is a coincidence; the name does not mean 'joy of battle'. It sits alongside Bengali names like Sanjoy, Bijoy and Ajoy, all of which contain the same word for victory.
