What is the meaning of the name Badri ?

The baby name Badri is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced BAH-dree (IPA: /ˈbɑdri/).

Badri is Arabic, Georgian, Persian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Badri is a masculine name with layered origins. In Sanskrit, badari denotes the jujube tree; by extension Badri refers to "the one of the badari grove," an epithet of Vishnu associated with the Himalayan shrine Badrinath (Badarinatha/Badri Narayan). In Arabic-Persian, a separate root links Badri to Badr, "full moon," and as a nisba means "of Badr" or "one who took part in the Battle of Badr." Georgian usage of Badri is well established and likely entered via Persian-Arabic influence.

Used across India and Nepal in devotional contexts, Badri often appears as a standalone name or a short form of Badrinath/Badrinarayan; related compounds include Badriprasad and Badarinath. Variants and cognates include Badr (Arabic), Badari (Sanskritized), and the honorific Badri Narayan. The name carries connotations of piety, pilgrimage, and brightness, blending sacred geography with lunar radiance.
