Arunavathi is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.
Arunavathi is a feminine given name of Indo‑Aryan origin, from Sanskrit aruṇa (reddish, dawn, the rising sun) plus the feminine suffix -vatī (endowed with, possessing). It denotes a woman endowed with the glow of dawn - radiant, sunlit, and rosy-hued. In Dravidian languages the Sanskrit -vatī is typically rendered -vathi/-vathy, yielding the common South Indian spelling Arunavathi.
The name occurs across the Indian subcontinent in Hindu and secular use, valued for auspicious solar imagery and associations with renewal. It appears as a luminous epithet in poetry and has seen periodic revivals in the 20th century alongside other Sanskritic names. Variants and transliterations include Arunavati, Arunavathy, Arunaavathi, and the Bengali-influenced Arunabati; related shorter forms are Aruna and Aruni. Names built on the same aruṇa root include Arunima and Arunika.
Arunavathi is extremely rare. There are only 1 recorded use on record, spread over 1 country.
