History References
The name is associated with Lord Hanuman, who is also known as Anjaneya, meaning "son of Anjana." Anjana was Hanuman's mother. While "Anjanan" is not as common a direct epithet for Hanuman as "Anjaneya," the root connection to "Anjana" and the meaning of 'anjani' (associated with auspiciousness and beauty) makes it a fitting attribute for divine figures. There are no widely documented historical figures with the exact name "Anjanan" that are prominent in mainstream Tamil history outside of mythological contexts.
