Chaaru is Sanskrit in Origin.
Chaaru is an Indian name from Sanskrit cāru (चारु), meaning "beautiful, charming, agreeable," also "graceful" or "dear." Used since the Vedic and classical periods as both an adjective and a given name, it is attested across North and South Asia. The name is unisex: in modern Hindi and Bengali it skews feminine, while in classical literature and parts of South India masculine bearers are common. Literary echoes include Charudatta, the hero of the Sanskrit play Mricchakatika, and Charumati, a daughter of Emperor Ashoka; Tagore's Charulata further popularized the root.
Common spellings include Charu (most prevalent) and Chaaru (to mark the long vowel); rarer forms are Caaru or Charoo. Related names and compounds include Charulata/Charulatha, Charumati/Charumathi, Charusheela, Charuchandra, and Charudatta. Regional scripts: चारु (Devanagari), চারু (Bengali), ചാരു, చారు, சாரு, ಚಾರು. Nicknames: Charu, Char.
