The names "Nowruz" and "Songkran" both imply the themes of celebration and change.
-
Nowruz: As the Persian New Year, it signifies the arrival of spring and renewal, representing a change in the season and a celebration of new beginnings.
-
Songkran: This traditional Thai festival marks the Thai New Year and is celebrated with water festivals. It signifies cleansing and renewal, reflecting a change in the year and also involves celebration through water-related festivities.
While water is a significant aspect of Songkran, and celebration is central to both festivals, the overarching themes of change and renewal are prevalent in both names.
