Meaning, etymology & significance

Ramansh (रामांश) is built from Rama — the seventh avatar of Vishnu, the dharmic king of Ayodhya, the central figure of the Ramayana — and aṃśa, portion. The literal sense is "a portion of Rama" — a fragment of the dharma-rāja.

In Vaishnava devotion Rama is the very embodiment of dharma — the kshatriya-king whose every action is governed by righteousness. To name a child Ramansh is therefore to inscribe upon his name a fragment of this dharma-quality.
