Harshali meaning
Harshali (हर्षाली) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (Marathi usage).
From harṣa, "joy, delight"
Also used to mean: joyful, full of happiness
Harshali (हर्षाली) is a modern girls' name from Maharashtra, built on Sanskrit harṣa, which Monier-Williams gives as joy, pleasure and delight. The form harṣālī is not in the dictionaries; the ending follows the pattern of other Marathi names such as Sonali and Rupali, and it does not add a separate meaning that we could trace. Name lists give Harshali as "joyful" or "full of happiness", which follows the root. It is the feminine counterpart of the boys' name Harshal, and Marathi families use both.
