What is the meaning of the name Subrat ?

The baby name Subrat is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced su-BRAT (IPA: /suˈbrət/).

Subrat is Sanskrit in Origin.

Subrat is an Indian masculine name from Sanskrit su "good, auspicious" + vrata "vow, sacred observance," yielding the sense "well-vowed," "strictly observant," or "virtuous by discipline." In eastern Indo-Aryan phonology, v commonly shifts to b, which shapes forms like Subrat and Subrata; in Hindi and Marathi the parallel forms are Suvrat and Suvrata. The term functions both as a personal name and a theophoric epithet in classical Sanskrit.

Usage spans centuries: Suvrata appears in Puranic and epic passages as a title for devout sages and deities, and in Jain tradition Munisuvrata is the 20th Tirthankara, reinforcing the association with austere vows. Today Subrat is common in Odisha and also heard across Bengal under the variant Subrata, with related spellings Suvrat, Suvrata, and, in Javanese/Indonesian, Subroto. The core meaning highlights self-control, religious commitment, and moral resolve.
