Cows are considered to be sacred animals in mainland India. Most Hindus respects cows since they represent strength and gentle nature. This is why we’ve created a list of Indian cow names to inspire people to bless their cows with meaningful names.
Traditionally in India, honoring cows inspired people the virtues of gentleness. Also, cows are given special feedings at festivals. The milk of a cow is also believed to refine a person. We usually differentiate cows in India from other breeds because they have a hump along their backbone.
