Swati is an Indic feminine name from Sanskrit स्वाति, transliterated Svāti. The earliest form is attested in Sanskrit nakshatra nomenclature, where Svāti names a lunar mansion rather than an ordinary adjective. Traditional lexica connect it with su-, a prefix of goodness or favor, and ati, beyond or exceeding, giving the gloss very beneficent; in astronomical usage it denotes the star Arcturus or the asterism associated with it. The common spelling Swati reflects modern Indo-Aryan and Indian English transliteration.
As a given name, Swati is used across Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Odia, and several Dravidian-language communities, often with regional spellings such as Swathi in Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, and Tamil contexts. The nakshatra’s place in Hindu calendrical and naming practice helped carry the name beyond Sanskrit texts. It is not a form of Saraswati, though the visual similarity sometimes invites that association. In the United States, SSA records show sporadic use from 1980, peaking modestly in 1988.
