Tribhuvana is Sanskrit in Origin.

From Sanskrit tri ('three') + bhuvana ('worlds'), Tribhuvana denotes 'the three worlds' and, by extension, cosmic sovereignty across heaven, earth, and the underworld. The word permeates Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain literature and appears in divine epithets like Tribhuvaneshvara/Tribhuvaneshwari.

As a given name, it occurs in classical sources and royal titulature (e.g., Tribhuvanamalla, Tribhuvanachakravartin), later spreading across South Asia. In the 20th century, King Tribhuvan of Nepal boosted the shorter masculine form; in Southeast Asia, a 14th‑century Majapahit ruler bore the spelling Tribhuwana. Variants and spellings include Tribhuvan (m.), Tribhuwan/Tribhuwana (Hindi–Nepali/Indonesian), and South Indian transliterations such as Tribhuvanam. Related feminine or extended forms are Tribhuvana itself, Tribhuvaneshwari ('Lady of the Three Worlds'), and the masculine Tribhuvaneshwar/Tribhubaneswar. The name conveys universality, protection, and sovereign strength.
