Madhushree meaning
Madhushree (मधुश्री) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Beauty of spring (madhu, "spring" + śrī, "beauty, splendour")
Also used to mean: beautiful
Madhushree (मधुश्री) joins two Sanskrit words. Madhu means sweet or honey, and is also the name of the first month of spring and of the spring season itself. Śrī means light, splendour, beauty and grace, and also prosperity and the goddess Lakṣmī. Read together they give "the beauty of spring", which is how name lists explain it, or more loosely "sweet beauty". The name is used mainly in Bengal, Odisha and Karnataka, where it is often spelt Madhusree. The playback singer Madhushree is a well-known bearer.
