Chandrimi is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Chandrimi is a feminine South Asian name rooted in Sanskrit candra, “moon.” In Bengali and Assamese, the derivative Chandrimā/Chandrimi carries the sense of “moonlight,” “moon-bright,” or “lunar radiance,” evoking serenity, grace, and gentle luminosity. The -imī ending reflects Indo-Aryan patterns for feminine forms and abstract qualities, so the name can also suggest “one who is moonlike” or “endowed with moonlight.”

Usage clusters in Bengal and Assam and among the diaspora, where nature‑poetic names gained favor in the late 19th–20th centuries. While uncommon across India overall, it aligns with the broader chandra naming family. Close variants and spellings include Chandrimā, Chandrima, Chandrika, Chandni/Chandini, and Chandra; Hindi Chandni serves as a semantic parallel. Common nicknames are Rimi, Rima, or Chandu. Overall, Chandrimi conveys luminous beauty with a tranquil, auspicious tone.
