What Bengali Names is for

The question that comes up when a Bengali name is heard for the first time — what does Anirban actually mean, is Rupkatha a real name, what's the difference between a Sanskrit-origin name and a Perso-Arabic-origin one — answered from one hand-curated, respectful reference, without hunting across baby-name listicles of varying reliability.

What it does

52 real Bengali (Bangla) given names, each given in Bengali script with a romanized transliteration, gender, a plain-language meaning, and a linguistic origin — Sanskrit-origin, Perso-Arabic-origin, or vernacular Bengali — described purely as a matter of etymology (name_info). Search by meaning or theme keyword, such as "moon" or "victory" (name_search). Browse by gender or by linguistic origin, and see every origin with its count (names_by_gender, names_by_origin, list_origins). A deterministic name of the day and a similar-names finder that surfaces other names with a related meaning, gender, or origin (name_of_the_day, similar_names). A small glossary of common Bengali name-building elements: -chandra, -nath, sri/shree, -devi, -kumar, -uddin, begum, -rani (naming_glossary).

What it is not

Not a claim that a name "belongs" exclusively to one religion or caste — origin here is described purely linguistically (where a name's roots come from), and Bengali speakers across West Bengal, Bangladesh and the wider diaspora span many faiths. Not a source of invented popularity rankings or birth-registry statistics — none are claimed; where a name is described as common, that's a qualitative, not a statistical, claim. Not an exhaustive name directory: Bengali has a vast and living stock of given names, and this is a curated, verified selection rather than a complete list. Fully local, zero upstream calls, nothing stored.

Tools

Look Up

name_info — Full detail for one Bengali name: Bengali script, romanization, gender, meaning, linguistic origin, and any cultural note. Use for "what does the name Anirban mean". Args: name.

name_search — Search by meaning or theme keyword across every name's meaning, note, romanization and Bengali text. Use for "Bengali names meaning victory", "names related to the moon". Args: query.

similar_names — Other names sharing a related meaning, gender, or linguistic origin with the given name. Use for "what other Bengali names are like Anirban". Args: name, limit.

Browse

names_by_gender — Every name tagged with one gender. Use for "list Bengali girl names", "what unisex Bengali names do you have". Args: gender.

names_by_origin — Every name of one linguistic origin. Use list_origins to see valid origin names. Use for "list Perso-Arabic-origin Bengali names". Args: origin.

list_origins — Every linguistic origin used to classify names, with how many names are in each. Use for "what origins of Bengali names do you cover".

name_of_the_day — One Bengali name, deterministically chosen for today's date (UTC). Use for "give me today's Bengali name".

Reference

naming_glossary — Definitions of common Bengali name elements -- suffixes and prefixes such as -chandra, -nath, sri/shree, -devi, -kumar, -uddin, begum, -rani. Use for "what does the suffix -devi mean in a Bengali name". Args: term.

Conventions

• Read-only. Every tool reads public data or computes; nothing is written anywhere and nothing about the user is stored.
• Result envelope. ok: true with data, or ok: false with a structured error (bad_input, not_found, upstream_error). degraded lists optional sources that were unreachable.
• Rate limits. Free tier 60 tool calls/minute and 300/day per user (keyed on the user identifier supplied by the host agent, else client IP); Pro keys raise this. Over-limit calls return HTTP 429 with Retry-After. initialize and tools/list are never counted.

Bengali Names — Privacy Policy

Effective 25 September 2026. Unify Dynamics LLC ("we", "us"), Menlo Park, California.

What Bengali Names is. Bengali Names is a connector (an MCP server and REST API) that AI assistants and personal agents call on your behalf for a hand-curated Bengali given-name reference: name lookups, meaning search, browsing by gender or origin, and a naming glossary. You interact with your assistant; the assistant sends us only the arguments needed for that one lookup.

What we receive. The arguments of each tool call — a name, a meaning keyword, a gender, an origin, or a glossary term — the technical headers needed to serve the request (an IP address or a client identifier supplied by the assistant, and a Pro API key if you have one), and standard server logs.

Everything is answered from a bundled, hand-curated reference file and nothing is stored. No request is forwarded to any third party — there is no upstream call at all, live or otherwise — and no query is logged in request bodies, recorded, or used to train anything.

What we do not receive or store. We do not receive your conversation with the assistant or your name (unless you pass a name as a lookup argument, in which case it's treated the same as any other search term and not retained), and we do not build a profile from your queries: each request is answered independently and nothing carries over between requests. Rate-limit counters (a client identifier and timestamps) are held in memory for at most 24 hours. Hosting-provider access logs, which contain IP addresses and request paths but not request bodies, are retained for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

Sub-processors. None — the entire dataset is bundled with the server and answered locally. Hosting: Vercel (United States regions).

Legal bases and your rights. Our processing is necessary to provide the service you request through your assistant. Because we store no personal data beyond short-lived logs, requests to access, correct or delete personal data are usually satisfied automatically; you can still contact agent@connectorbay.com and we will respond within 30 days. We do not sell or share personal information and do not use your data to train models.

Children. Bengali Names is a general-audience service operated by the adult using the assistant.

Changes. We will post changes here with a new effective date.

Bengali Names — Terms of Service

Effective 25 September 2026. These terms govern use of the Bengali Names connector ("the Service") operated by Unify Dynamics LLC ("we", "us").

1. The Service. Bengali Names returns a hand-curated reference of real Bengali (Bangla) given names — Bengali script, romanization, gender, meaning, linguistic origin, and a naming glossary — from data curated and verified as of the build date stated in its own data. It is accessed through an AI assistant or directly over MCP or HTTP.
2. A reference, not a naming authority. Bengali Names is an independent linguistic reference tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by any government, religious institution, or naming authority, and not a substitute for family or community guidance when choosing a name.
3. Origin is linguistic, not religious or caste-based. Where this Service labels a name's origin (Sanskrit-origin, Perso-Arabic-origin, vernacular Bengali), that label describes etymology only; it is not a claim that the name belongs exclusively to one religion, caste, or community.
4. No guaranteed popularity claims. Any note about how common a name is reflects general, qualitative impression, not a birth-registry statistic.
5. Acceptable use. Automated use within the published rate limits is welcome.
6. Availability. The Service is provided "as is" without warranty. We may change, limit or discontinue it at any time.
7. Data. Our Privacy Policy describes what we process. In short: your query is answered from a bundled reference file, and nothing is stored.
8. Pro keys. Optional Pro API keys are issued at our discretion, are personal to the holder and may be revoked for abuse.
9. Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Unify Dynamics LLC is not liable for any loss arising from use of or reliance on the Service. Our total liability is limited to US $100.
10. Governing law. California law; venue in San Mateo County, California.
