In the dictionaries
We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Chaitrali (चैत्राली) is a modern Marathi girls' name built on Chaitra, the month that opens the Hindu year in Maharashtra with Gudi Padwa and falls in March and April. Monier-Williams records caitra as the second month of spring, named for the star Citrā at its full moon. Name lists give Chaitrali as "born in Chaitra" or link it with spring. The -ālī ending is found in Marathi names such as Sonali, Rupali and Mitali, but Chaitrali itself is not in the dictionaries, so its meaning comes from usage. It is close to, but not the same as, Chaitali.
