Bhuvaneshwari meaning
Bhuvaneshwari (भुवनेश्वरी) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Mistress of the world; a name of various goddesses
Also used to mean: queen of the world, goddess of the universe
Bhuvaneshwari (भुवनेश्वरी) joins Sanskrit bhuvana, "the world", with īśvarī, "mistress, queen". Monier-Williams gives bhuvaneśvarī as "mistress of the world", a name of various goddesses, and the masculine bhuvaneśvara as a king or a name of Shiva. Baby-name lists render it as "queen of the world" or "goddess of the universe", which is the same idea. Bhuvaneshvari is the fourth of the ten Mahavidya goddesses, and the name is used in South India, where it is also spelt Bhuvaneswari.
