Sadbhavna (Sanskrit/Hindi: सद्भावना; IAST: Sadbhāvanā) blends sad/sat, “good” or “true,” with bhāvanā, “feeling, disposition, cultivation,” yielding the sense of “goodwill,” “benevolent intention,” and “harmonious sentiment.” The term is widely attested in Sanskrit and later Indo‑Aryan literature as an ethical ideal, and its literal meaning is retained in modern Hindi and related languages.

Used as a given name mainly from the late twentieth century onward, Sadbhavna appears in Hindi-, Punjabi-, Gujarati-, and Nepali-speaking communities and the South Asian diaspora, often chosen to express hopes for kindness and social harmony. The name is most commonly feminine but can be unisex. Variant spellings include Sadbhavana, Sadbhāvanā, and Sadbhavna; related names are Bhavna/Bhavna. Diminutives such as Sadi and Bhav occur informally. Public observances like “Sadbhavana Diwas” in India helped familiarize the term, reinforcing its association with concord and civic goodwill.
