Kusumlata meaning
Kusumlata (कुसुमलता) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin. By its first sound, कु, it is a Mithun rashi name (Ardra nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
A flowering creeper (kusuma 'flower' + latā 'creeper')
Kusumlata (कुसुमलता) joins Sanskrit kusuma, "a flower, blossom", and latā, "a creeper", so it means "a flowering creeper", the same picture as the name Pushpalata. Monier-Williams gives kusuma as a flower or blossom, and latā as any creeping or twining plant and, in poetry, a slender woman. Kusumlata is a traditional name in the Hindi-speaking states, often written as two words, Kusum Lata, and it shares its first half with Kusum, a separate girl's name.
