Suyashri is a modern Sanskrit-derived Indian given name, primarily feminine, combining su- “good, auspicious,” yaś/yaśas “fame, glory,” and śrī “radiance, prosperity; epithet of the goddess Lakshmi.” Together it conveys “auspicious good fame,” or “one graced with virtuous renown and prosperity.” In Devanagari it is written सुयश्री, and the name carries a gentle devotional undertone through the Śrī element.

It sees use across Hindi-, Marathi-, Kannada-, and Telugu-speaking communities, and is occasionally treated as unisex regionally, though feminine is most common. The compound has risen in popularity since the late 20th century, reflecting a trend toward fresh blends of classical morphemes. Variants include Suyashree, Suyasri, Suyasree, and Suyaśrī; related forms are Suyasha (f.) and Suyash (m.). While not strictly theophoric, the Śrī component invokes auspiciousness tied to Lakshmi, and the yaś root echoes ideals of honorable reputation found throughout Sanskrit literature and courtly praise poetry.
