Scholars argue that immediately after the birth ofHanuman his mother Anjana named him
(handsome boy) as he was extremely charming owing to the Divine Power imbibedin him. In support of this supposition a number or scholars say that the fifthchapter of the Ramayana which highlights the great and glorious deeds ofHanuman has been entitled as Sunder Kand (soalso in Valmiki Ramayana).
