Anbuselvi meaning
Anbuselvi (அன்புச்செல்வி) is a Tamil girl's name.
Beloved lady or daughter: aṉpu "love" + celvi "lady; daughter"
Anbuselvi (அன்புச்செல்வி) joins two Tamil name-words. Aṉpu means love and affection. Celvi comes from celvam, "wealth", and the Tamil Lexicon gives it as the goddess Lakṣmī, a wealthy woman, a lady of rank and a daughter. Together the name reads "beloved lady" or "daughter of love", with a hint of a treasured child. Selvi is itself a Tamil girls' name and name ending, and Anbuselvi belongs to the same family as Tamilselvi and Kalaiselvi. The matching boys' name is Anbuselvan.
