Alternate Names of Ahom Kings

 

Upon ascending to the throne, the Ahom Kings would generally take up Ahom Names decided by the Ahom priests. The name generally ended in pha which in Tai language means Lord, eg: Suteuphaa. But later on, the Kings also started to take an alternative name; generally, a Hindu name that ended in Singha (meaning Lion). For example, Supatpha assumed the name Gadadhar Singha.

So, we are here with a list of their alternative names.

** Interesting Fact: Suhungmung was the first Ahom king to assume a Hindu name. The Hindu name he adopted was ' Swarganarayan'.
