Ravikumar meaning

Ravikumar (रविकुमार) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin.

Son of the sun: ravi 'sun' + kumāra 'boy, son, prince'

Ravikumar (रविकुमार) joins ravi, "the sun", with kumāra, which Monier-Williams gives as a child, boy or son, and also a prince. So the name means "son of the sun" or "prince of the sun", the reading name lists give. Ravikumar is used in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Kerala, where it also serves as a family name, and is often written as two words, Ravi Kumar, in the north.
