Rupam meaning
Rupam (रूपम) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit origin (Bengali usage). By its first sound, रू, it is a Tula rashi name (Swati nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
Form, shape; beauty, splendour
Also used to mean: beautiful
Rupam (रूपम) is the Sanskrit word rūpam, the dictionary form of rūpa. Monier-Williams gives it as outward appearance, form and shape, and also as handsome form, beauty and splendour; it is the same word as in Rupa and Roop. Name lists give "beautiful" or "form". The name is used mainly in Bengal and Assam, where it is usually a boy's name, though it is also given to girls. A well-known bearer is the Bengali rock singer Rupam Islam.
