What does the name 'Akaay' mean?

Well, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma's fans have been shedding happy tears since the news about their second baby's arrival surfaced online. Since the last few months, reports have been rife that the duo would embrace parenthood yet again, and the same is confirmed now. In a picture note, Virat and Anushka revealed that they welcomed their baby boy, Akaay, on February 15, 2024. However, after doing a little research, we got to know that Akaay is a Sanskrit-originated name, which means 'a singular power' or 'a supreme power'. On the other hand, 'Akaay' with a single 'A', i.e., 'Akay' in Turkish means 'full moon', or 'shining moon' and in Turkiye, this name is used for both baby girls and boys. Moreover, as per several other reports, in Hindi Akaay means incorporeal. While 'kaay' refers to 'kaaya' i.e., shadow or form, 'A' is used as an antonym, thereby making the meaning 'higher existence' or 'incorporeal'. For those who don't know, the meaning of Vamika's name is 'Durga'. Well, there's no denying the fact that such good news actually made our day.
