Arulsalvan is a Tamil compound name formed from arul, meaning divine grace or compassion, and selvan, a title for a prosperous, fortunate young man. Together it signifies one who is graced and prosperous, or a youth endowed with God’s favor and good fortune. The standard literary form is Arulselvan (அருள்செல்வன்), while the spelling Arulsalvan reflects common transliteration of the consonant ச as s. The name is typically masculine but carries devotional overtones appreciated across Tamil communities.

Selvan appears widely in classical and modern Tamil literature as an honorific for promising youths, and Arul - frequent in Bhakti-era names - adds a spiritual nuance. Variants and spaced forms include Arul Selvan, Arulselvaan, Arulchelvan, and Arulsalvan; feminine counterparts are Arulselvi/Arul Selvi (அருள்செல்வி). The name is common in Tamil Nadu, Sri Lanka, and the global Tamil diaspora.
