Arisudan (or Arisudana) is a Sanskrit name meaning "killer of enemies," "destroyer of demons" or "protector."

Arijit is a popular Indian male name of Sanskrit origin, meaning "one who has conquered his enemies" or a "victorious conqueror."
Yes Sir. The names are apt and powerful. I was just pointing out the error in the tweet that wrongly mentioned S4* as S4. People think its S1, S2, S3, S4 while the S1 is land based and the remaining S2, S3, S4 and S4* being the numbers. Yes as you know S4 and S4* being the elongated Arihant.

Wrong thread but mentioning one more news that came out, is the name given to ATAGS is Amogh. Google search for baby names Amogh suggest these
"The epitome of perfection– One who is blessed by divine grace."
The rare and special masculine given name Amogh is of Indian origin and finds its roots in the Telugu language. The name, when translated into Sanskrit, means ‘invincible’ and ‘unerring.’ Amogh is also associated with Lord Ganesha, revered as the Lord of all Wealth and Wisdom.
