What is the meaning of the name Anusooya ?

The baby name Anusooya is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced {'phonetic': 'uh-NOO-soo-yuh', 'IPA': '/əˈnuːsuːjə/'}.

Anusooya is Hindu, Sanskrit in Origin.

Anusooya is a feminine given name of Sanskrit origin, from an- 'not' + asuya 'envy/ill will', expressing the sense 'without envy,' 'free from jealousy,' or 'one who is not spiteful.' The double o reflects the long vowel ū; in scholarly transliteration it appears as Anusūyā.

Usage reaches back to classical Hindu literature through Anasūyā, the virtuous wife of the sage Atri. Renowned for devotion and hospitality, she instructs Sita in the Ramayana and is revered as the mother of Dattātreya (and, in some traditions, Durvāsā and the moon-god Chandra). The name remains popular across India and Nepal, especially in Hindi, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, Malayalam, and Odia contexts. Variant spellings include Anasuya, Anasuyaa, Anusūyā, Anusuya, Anasooya, Anusoya, and Anusuiya; Anu is a common nickname. Chosen for its ethical resonance, Anusooya suggests a kind, magnanimous temperament.
