Shashank or Shashanka (Sanskrit: शशाङ्क, romanizedŚaśāṅka) is a given name among Hindus. The name is derived from Sanskrit, as another name for the Moon (literally, 'hare-marked", shasha, "hare" + anka, "spotted").[1] The Hindu god Shiva bears the epithet Shashankashekhara, meaning "He who holds the moon on his head".
