Vishvamohana (विश्वमोहन, IAST: Viśvamohana) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “He who enchants and fascinates the entire universe”. From viśva (the whole world, universe) and mohana (that which enchants or bewilders, from the root muh), Viśvamohana names Viṣṇu as the irresistible enchanter before whose beauty and grace all of creation is captivated.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Mohana derives from muh, meaning to be confused or to be overcome with fascination, and its causative mohana means that which induces such a state. This is divine fascination of the most benevolent kind: Viṣṇu's beauty — whether as Kṛṣṇa playing the flute in Vṛndāvana or as the luminous cosmic form — draws every heart as the moon draws the tides. The universe itself cannot look away from His splendor.
Viśvamohana is an epithet of Viṣṇu and, by extension, of Kṛṣṇa, whose flute-music is said to enchant all of creation. Pronounced 'Vish-va-MO-ha-na,' it is a flowing, beautiful name well-suited as a devotional given name for boys.
Scriptural source
Vishvamohana appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
