Bindu is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.
Bindu is a Sanskrit-derived given name across South Asia meaning "drop," "point," or "dot." In Hindu, Buddhist, and yogic thought, bindu denotes the primordial point or seed of creation, and in Indic scripts and adornment it refers to the small dot - familiar as the forehead bindi - signifying focus and essence.
Adopted as a personal name in modern times, Bindu is most often feminine yet remains technically unisex. It is found in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and the diaspora, and has been popularized through South Asian cinema and literature. Variants and related forms include Bindhu (South Indian transliteration), Bindoo (anglicized), Bindi (pet form), and Bindiya (Hindi affectionate form). The meaning is consistent across Indo-Aryan and Dravidian languages, and the concise, image-rich symbolism lends the name a timeless, culturally rooted quality.
