Sushiladevi is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Sushiladevi is a compound feminine given name from Sanskrit: su- “good, auspicious” + śīlā “conduct, character” + devī “goddess, lady.” Literally “goddess (or honored lady) of good character,” it carries connotations of virtue, gentleness, and cultured demeanor. In IAST it appears as Suśīladevī, while modern spellings vary with regional orthography.

The name is found across North and Central India, Nepal, and the South Asian diaspora, especially in the 19th–20th centuries when Devi functioned as an honorific suffix for women in administrative and legal records. It is often written as two words - Sushila Devi - or hyphenated; the continuous Sushiladevi form is frequent in official documents. Related variants include Sushila, Susheela/Suseela, Susila, and Suśīlā; cognate honorifics sometimes appear as -bai (Marathi) or -amma (Kannada/Telugu). Common short forms are Sushila and Sush. Overall sense: “virtuous lady,” “well‑mannered goddess,” or “one of exemplary character.”
