Varahi

Varahi is a name deeply rooted in Hindu mythology, specifically associated with the Matrikas, a group of seven or eight mother goddesses. Varahi is the shakti (female energy) of Varaha, the boar avatar of Vishnu. She is often depicted with the head of a sow, holding a chakra and a conch, and is considered a fierce and protective deity. Her worship is prevalent in various tantric traditions and she is revered for her power to grant boons and protect devotees.

The name's usage extends beyond direct worship, often given to girls in India to invoke the blessings and protective qualities of the goddess. It signifies strength, protection, and a connection to divine feminine power. While not as common as some other goddess names, it holds significant cultural and religious weight.
