Name list
Srinivasa (Sanskrit श्रीनिवास) is a Hindu name. The term Srinivasa is Vaishnava in origin, the combination of two Sanskrit words, Shri (श्री) and nivasa (निवास).
It is a name for males in India as well as a family surname. Shrinivasan (श्रीनिवासन्) is the singular nominative form, and along with its variants Srinivasan, Srinivas, and others, is used as a forename or surname.
Shri means "radiance" or "diffusing light"; nivasa means "place of residence", which is considered to be the source of light (as a metaphor for life) in Hindu scriptures.[citation needed] Shri is also an epithet of Lakshmi[1] who is the consort associated with Venkateshvara, and often described to be embodied within him.[2] Hence, the alternative meaning of this name is: "one within whom Lakshmi (prosperity) lives".
Srinivas is the northern Indian variant of the original Sanskrit name Srinivasa, employed after the schwa-deletion in the Indo-Aryan languages.
The use of the name Srinivasan (also rendered Sreenivasan) is common in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Similarly, the dialectical word, Srinivasulu, is commonly used in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The name is also very much prevalent in Odisha, Maharashtra and Karnataka, among other parts of India.[citation needed]
The other variants in English spelling include Sreenivas, Shrinivas, Shreenivas, Srinibas, Shrinibas.[citation needed]
