Jyotirmay is Sanskrit in Origin.
Jyotirmay is a Sanskrit-derived male given name meaning “filled with light” or “luminous.” It comes from jyotis (light, radiance) + -maya (consisting of, permeated by). Devanagari: ज्योतिर्मय. Regional pronunciation varies: jyo-tir-mai in North India, and jyo-tir-moy in eastern languages. The feminine counterpart is Jyotirmayi (ज्योतिर्मयी), while close variants include Jyotirmaya and the Bengali form Jyotirmoy; related diminutives include Jyoti.
In classical Sanskrit and later bhakti and Vedantic texts, jyotirmaya describes the self-luminous nature of the divine or the Self, which encouraged its adoption as a given name. It is long-used across India - especially in Hindi- and Bengali-speaking communities - and among the South Asian diaspora, carrying connotations of brightness, intelligence, and auspiciousness. IAST transliteration is jyotirmaya; English records may show Jyotirmay, Jyotirmaya, or Jyotirmoy, reflecting regional phonology. It also appears as a spiritual name in yoga and Vedanta circles.
