Barati is Indian in Origin.

Barati is a South Asian given name most often understood as a variant of Sanskrit Bhāratī. In classical usage Bhāratī names the goddess of speech and learning (an epithet of Saraswati) and denotes eloquence or refined utterance; it can also mean “belonging to Bharata,” hence “Indian.” The name appears in Vedic invocations and has stayed current across India, where it carries scholarly and artistic associations. It is unisex in some regions but chiefly feminine, and also occurs as a surname. A notable bearer is the Tamil poet Subramania Bharati (often spelled Bharathi/Barathi).

Common variants include Bharati, Bharti, Bharathi, and Barathi; regional spellings differ across Hindi, Marathi, Kannada, and Tamil. Related names are Saraswati, Vani, and Vagdevi. The name connotes knowledge, music, and eloquence. Not to be confused with Barat/Berat (Arabic barā’ah “innocence”), a separate etymology.
