Udhayanidhi is Sanskrit, Tamil in Origin.

Udhayanidhi is a Tamil masculine compound built from Sanskrit lexical material. Its two elements are udaya (उदय), a classical Sanskrit noun for rising, ascent, or sunrise, formed with ud-, upward, and the verbal root i, to go; and nidhi (निधि), treasure, deposit, or store. In Tamil it is written உதயநிதி, with the Sanskrit compound adapted to Tamil phonology and spelling. The literal sense is treasure of dawn or treasure of rising.

The name belongs chiefly to Tamil naming practice, where Sanskritic compounds have long circulated beside native Tamil formations, especially among Hindu families. It is not an ancient mythological personal name in its own right, but its components are familiar in religious, literary, and formal registers. Udhayanidhi became especially recognizable in contemporary Tamil Nadu through Udhayanidhi Stalin, actor, producer, and politician. Roman spellings vary because Tamil த may be rendered as dh, d, th, or t, producing forms such as Udayanidhi and Udhayanithi.
