Aswin is a male name that is pronounced as AS-win (/ˈæs.wɪn/). It is often seen as a variation of the name Ashwin. The origin of the name Aswin can be traced back to various cultures, including Indian and Dutch. In Indian culture, Aswin is derived from the Sanskrit word "Ashvin," which means "light" or "horse tamer." In Hindu mythology, Ashvin Kumaras are twin deities associated with youth, beauty, and health. In Dutch culture, Aswin is a variant of the name Aeswyn, which means "friend of the gods." While not particularly common in the United States, Aswin has been given to a small number of newborns in recent years.
