Kiranmayi meaning
Kiranmayi (किरणमयी) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Radiant, bright
Also used to mean: full of light
Kiranmayi (किरणमयी) is the feminine of Sanskrit kiraṇa-maya, which Monier-Williams defines as radiant and bright. It joins kiraṇa, "a ray of light", the source of the name Kiran, with -maya, "made of, full of". Name lists give "full of light" or "radiant", matching the dictionary. The name is used most in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where it is often spelt Kiranmayee or Kiranmai. It should not be confused with Hiranmayi, "golden".
