Divyanka meaning
Divyanka (दिव्यांका) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Divine mark (divya + aṅka)
Also used to mean: divine grace
Divyanka (दिव्यांका) is a modern name joining two Sanskrit words. Divya, in Monier-Williams, is divine, heavenly and celestial, and also wonderful, charming and beautiful. Aṅka has many senses, among them a mark or sign, an ornament, and the lap or the curve of the hip where a mother carries her child. Name lists give Divyanka as "divine mark", sometimes "divine grace"; the first follows the dictionary, while "grace" is a looser modern reading. The compound is not itself in the dictionary. A well-known bearer is the television actress Divyanka Tripathi.
