Susrutha is Sanskrit in Origin.
From Sanskrit su- (“good, well”) + śruta (“heard, renowned”), Susrutha means “well-heard,” hence “renowned, learned, well‑versed.” The form Susrutha reflects South Indian transliteration conventions for the dental t; in scholarly IAST the name is Suśruta. It has long been read as a mark of one who has truly “listened” to knowledge and become accomplished.
The name is inseparably linked to the classical Ayurvedic surgeon Suśruta, compiler of the Suśruta Saṃhitā and revered in India as a pioneer of operative technique and medical pedagogy. Because of this association, Susrutha carries connotations of skill, study, and healing. Modern use appears across India and the diaspora, especially in Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam communities. Common variants include Sushruta, Susruta, Sushrut, Sushruth, Susrut, and Suśruta; related cognates are Shruta and Shrut. Predominantly masculine, though occasionally adopted as a unisex modern choice.
Susrutha turns up in none of the birth registries or name datasets we cover. It's the kind of name that tends to be rare, regional, or newly made up. Whichever it is, scarcely anyone else carries it.
