Historical Usage
The name Namitraj is derived from the Sanskrit words 'Nama' which means name or fame and 'Traj' which means deliverer or savior. This name was commonly used for the deity Shiva in various Hindu texts and inscriptions.

Another reference to the name Namitraj can be found in the Hindu epic Mahabharata (circa 400 BC). In one chapter, the god Indra, who was overcome by pride and loss of power, approached the sage Vyasa seeking a boon to restore his power. Vyasa granted him the boon that he would be worshipped as Namitraj by the Panchalas, a tribe living in present-day Gujarat. This name signified Indra's ability to bestow fame and prosperity on his devotees.
