Yashvi is a feminine name of Sanskrit origin, derived from yashas (यशस्), meaning 'fame, glory, success'. It is a modern coinage in India, formed by adding the popular -vi suffix to the root yash. The name has gained popularity since the early 2000s, particularly among Hindu families seeking a name that conveys aspiration and achievement.
