Tejasvi is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.
Tejasvi (from Sanskrit tejasvī) is a unisex given name derived from tejas (radiance, splendor, energy, courage) with the possessive adjectival suffix -in, yielding the sense "brilliant, vigorous, full of luster." It is used across modern Indian languages, including Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Kannada, and Telugu. Common variants are Tejaswi, Tejashwi, Tejasvee, and Tejasswi; related names include Tejas, Tej, and the feminine-leaning Tejaswini.
In Sanskrit literature, tejasvī describes one endowed with fiery brilliance, and the term is familiar from the Vedic mantra line tejasvinavadhitamastu (may our study be vigorous). As a personal name it spread in the 20th century with the revival of Sanskrit-derived virtue names and now appears for both boys and girls in India and the diaspora. Nicknames include Tej and Teju.
