The name Henry has an entire Wikipedia page, as it is a notable given name of English origin. Similarly there are hundreds of notable given names of Indian origin that have their own page (such as Rahul, Soumya, Abhishek, etc.).

Please refer to the following wikipedia pages for further evidence of popular Indian given names having their own Wikipedia pages: -


 * - Category: Indian masculine given names
 * - Category: Indian feminine given names
 * - Category: Indian given names
 * - Category: Hindu given names

The popularity of the name is established by means of adding a list of notable people with the given name, as is the case with most of the articles in the above mentioned categories. Therefore, the page on the Indian masculine name Vishwajeet deserves a Wikipedia page for the benefit of the users as a source for useful information on the history and meaning of the name. However, users are free to make appropriate edits as they seem fit, and wherever necessary. Either the deletion tag needs to be removed, or all the hundreds of pages on Indian given names need to be tagged for deletion with immediate effect, which would call for the deletion of every other article on given names irrespective of country of origin.

 * I do not see mere presence can bring a notability to a generic name !, and just pointing out to some other page does not make the current generic name notable enough to have a page!, also note with the name "Henry" there were french kings and other notable charecter, I am little skeptical on the concerened generic name Shrikanthv (talk) 06:19, 17 August 2015 (UTC)


 * I understand what you are trying to say. However, I believe the concerned name's notability has been established by adding the Notable People list on the article's page. More than a dozen important and notable personalities have been mentioned there, which is more than the other pages on Indian names. The name (which is also a Sanskrit word) is especially common and significantly popular in Bengal, and therefore deserves a Wikipedia page for the benefit of the users.
