My 4th and 5th grade students are studying ancient India. They would like to know the meanings of their names and how to write them in Sanskrit. Their names are:
Aviana, Avalon, Benjamin, Chase, Dara, Dorie (or Doris), Ericka, FayAnne, Francis,Freya,
Gabriella, Louis, Owen, Robert, Stewart, and William.
Thank you, with utmost gratitude, from 16 eager students!

Hi, dsmeadowgate!

It's my understanding, that the folks here who are able to do that the best, will need to know the exact, phonetic pronunciations of the names in order to be the most accurate with the translations.

So, if you could provide those, it would be helpful.

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. I got so busy I forgot to check for answers. We have moved on from India studies to Persia and Mesopotamia, so I'll let that question go for now. Next time I know to include phonetics too. Thanks again!
