India got name Bharat through the great king Bharata.
Period: Treta (Silver) Yuga - over one million years BC
Bharata, the eldest son of King Rishabdev, was a devout Theist. When his exalted father retired from material life to seek God alone in the wilderness, he appointed his foremost son, Bharata, to succeed him as King.
Accepting his father's order he began to rule the vast Kingdom (modern India is STILL named Bharata, but during the time of Bharat's rule his domain, known as Bharata varsha, included all the land between Persia and South East Asia).

India is called "Bharat". Another name is 'Hindustan'. The modern English name`India' is derived from the River 'Indus'. Home of the early settlers called 'Aryans' who worshiped the river Indus as 'Sindhu'. in medieval times, the Muslim invaders from Persia called the people of Sindhu as 'Hindu'.
