Bhavika meaning
Bhavika (भाविका) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin. By its first sound, भा, it is a Dhanu rashi name (Mula nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
Real, natural; full of feeling, expressive (bhāvika)
Also used to mean: full of emotion, pious
Bhavika (भाविका) is the feminine form of Bhavik, from Sanskrit bhāvika. Monier-Williams gives bhāvika two main senses, "actually existing, real, natural" and "full of feeling or sentiment, expressive". Both come from bhāva, a word for being, feeling and emotion, and the second is close to what baby-name lists give: "one full of emotion", though some lists say "pious" or "pure-hearted". Sanskrit grammar would make the feminine bhāvikī; Bhavika is the form families actually use. The name is used in Gujarat.
