Meaning & origin

Sravya is a feminine name of Indian origin, first recorded in United States Social Security data in 1995. It achieved its highest popularity in 2010, but its usage has been steadily declining since 2009. The name is most commonly used among families of South Indian heritage, particularly Telugu speakers. Its etymology is uncertain but may be linked to the Sanskrit word 'shravya,' meaning 'melodious' or 'worthy of hearing.' Despite its modest rarity, Sravya carries a lyrical quality that has appealed to parents seeking a distinctive name with cultural resonance.

Sravya (శ్రావ్య) is a feminine name of Indian origin, primarily used in Telugu-speaking regions. It is thought to derive from Sanskrit, where it may be related to 'shravya' meaning 'that which is heard' or 'melodious'. The name has been used since the late 20th century, gaining modest popularity in the 2000s. Its linguistic roots suggest a connection to hearing or sound, but precise etymology remains uncertain.
