Trilochana is Sanskrit in Origin.

Trilochana is a Sanskrit theonym and given name formed from tri “three” and locana “eye,” meaning “three‑eyed.” It is chiefly an epithet of Lord Shiva, whose third eye symbolizes heightened insight and the power to burn away ignorance. The name appears in Purāṇic and devotional literature, including lists of Shiva’s thousand names, and carries connotations of vigilance, wisdom, and transformative energy.

As a personal name, Trilochana is used across northern and eastern India and in the South Asian diaspora; a noted bearer is the 13th‑century Bhakti poet-saint Sant Trilochan of the Varkari tradition. Common variants include Trilochan (Hindi, Punjabi, Odia, Bengali) and Tilochan/Tilochana or Thilochana as regional spellings; feminine forms such as Trilochanā and Trilochani occur but are rarer. Related cognates or thematic alternatives include Trinetra and Trinayana (“three‑eyed”). Nicknames may shorten to Trilo or Tril.
