Maha Navami, the ninth day of Navratri and Durga Puja, is the climax of the festival. It’s the day of the final worship, the day when the Goddess’s strength, courage and blessings are celebrated, and the day right before Vijayadashami, which marks the victory of good over evil.

Here are six meaningful names, three for girls and three for boys, inspired by Maha Navami.
