In all the world, আনন্দ (Anand , Ananda , আনন্দ ) is a prevalent primarily masculine, but very infrequently female forename. The forename আনন্দ is characteristic of India, where it is a common primarily male, but scarcely girly name, United Arab Emirates, where it is quite a common male name, and Qatar, where it is quite a common predominantly male, but very infrequently female name (explore the name in all countries). Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in India, Indonesia, and Brazil. Very seldom, আনন্দ is the last name as well as the forename.
আনন্দ is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Ananda , the fictional Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles character and Ananda , the operatic character in the opera Bacchus by Jules Massenet.
