Jhulelal was an Ishta-deva. Jhulelal's true name was Udaichand (Uday in Sanskrit means moon-beams).

Within Hinduism, an Ishta-deva or Ishta devata literally "cherished divinity," "desired, liked, cherished" and devatā "godhead, divinity, tutelary deity" or deva "deity" is a term denoting a worshipper's favourite deity.
