Srinatha is Sanskrit in Origin.
Srinatha is a Sanskrit-derived masculine name, built from śrī (“radiance, prosperity; the goddess Lakshmi”) and nātha (“lord, protector”), yielding meanings such as “lord of fortune,” “venerable lord,” or “consort of Shri” (an epithet of Vishnu/Krishna). It occurs across Indic languages and scripts, especially in South India, with variants and spellings including Srinath, Shrinath, Sreenath, Shreenath, and the devotional title Shrinathji; extended forms Shrinatha/Sreenatha also appear.
The name is well attested in medieval and later Vaishnava usage and literature; a notable bearer is the 14th–15th‑century Telugu court poet Srinatha (called Kavi Sarvabhouma). Today it remains common among Hindu families in India and the diaspora, prized for its auspicious connotations of prosperity, grace, and protection. Feminine adaptations are rare but may be encountered as Srinitha or Shrinathi; related theonyms and surnames preserve the same root elements.
Srinatha is seldom given. In all, it turns up just 22 times, across 2 countries.
