Muralimanohar is Sanskrit, Tamil in Origin.
From Sanskrit murali "flute" + manohara "captivating, heart-stealing," Muralimanohar is a devotional epithet of the Hindu god Krishna, glossed as "the flute-enchanter" or "he who steals hearts with the flute." In Vaishnava literature, bhajans, and iconography, it highlights Krishna's role as the irresistible cowherd who charms beings with his music.
As a masculine given name across India, especially among Vaishnavite families in North and South India, it reflects the tradition of theophoric names drawn from divine attributes. The epithet occurs in temple titles and devotional songs and is used as a personal name in many regions today. Common variants and spellings include Murali Manohar (two words), Muralimanohara (Sanskrit nominative ending), Murlimanohar (Hindi simplification), and the related epithet Murali Mohan/Murlimohan. Short forms such as Murali and Manohar also occur. Meaning centers on beauty, charm, and devotional love.
