Pranali meaning
Pranali (प्रणाली) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (Marathi usage).
A channel; custom, tradition; a method or system
Pranali (प्रणाली) began as the Sanskrit word for a channel or conduit that carries water. Monier-Williams also gives it as a line of transmission of a text and as intervention, and the Hindī Śabdasāgara records the senses it has today: custom and convention, a method or system, a means, and a tradition, as well as a narrow strait between two seas. Name lists give "system" or "method", the modern Hindi and Marathi sense. As a girls' name Pranali is used mainly in Maharashtra.
