Dark, black, or all-attractive
Krishan is a modern variant of the Sanskrit name Krishna. In Hindu tradition, it refers to the eighth avatar of the god Vishnu, symbolizing love, compassion, and divine joy. The name is often interpreted as 'all-attractive' or 'the dark one' in reference to the deity's skin tone.
