What Akaay means?
The name Akaay is a variation of the Turkish name Akay, which means “shining moon” or “near a full moon”. It is a gender-neutral name that can be used for both boys and girls. The Hindi meaning of Akaay may also means ‘Who is without body or form; bodiless; Supreme soul.’
Some possible reasons why they picked this name are:
They wanted a unique and modern name that reflects their personality and style.
They liked the meaning of the name, as it symbolizes brightness, beauty, and hope.
They wanted to follow the trend of celebrities naming their children after celestial objects, such as Luna, Rumi, and North.
They wanted their baby’s name to have a spiritual meaning, as both the celebs are quite spiritual themselves.
