Sunilatha is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Sunilatha is a feminine given name from Sanskrit, common in South Indian languages such as Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, and Malayalam. It combines su- (“good, beautiful”), nīla (“blue, dark-hued”), and latā (“creeper, vine,” a classical metaphor for a slender, graceful woman). The composite sense is “beautiful blue vine,” evoking elegance and serene depth; by extension it can suggest auspicious grace with a cool, indigo calm.

Names ending in -latha/-latā rose to popularity in the 20th century as modern compounds inspired by Sanskrit poetics, though nīla and latā appear together in older verse and botanical terms. Variants include Sunilata/Sunīlatā (IAST), Suneelatha (anglicized long ī), and Neelatha/Nilatha; related forms are Sunita/Sunitha and Latha/Latika. Nicknames: Suni, Nila, Latha. Usage is chiefly among Hindu families, with higher frequency in southern India.
