In the dictionaries
The name isn't in the classical dictionaries we use, so it is most likely a modern name. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Manvik (मान्विक) is a modern boys' name. We could not find it in Monier-Williams or the other Sanskrit and Hindi dictionaries, and name lists do not agree on its meaning: some give "compassionate" or "humane", others "courageous" or "victorious mind". The most likely link is to Sanskrit mānava, "human, a man", which Monier-Williams records as descended from Manu, the first man, and that would fit "humane"; but no source documents how Manvik was formed. Families use it to mean a kind, humane person.
