We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Saavi (सावी) is a short modern girls' name, used across India and in the diaspora. We could not find it in Monier-Williams or Apte, and name lists disagree about its meaning: some give "sun-ray" and link it to Savitṛ, the sun god, others give "Goddess Lakshmi", and a few give "wisdom" or "love". None of these can be traced to a dictionary, so we treat them as modern popular meanings rather than the name's source. Savi is a shorter spelling.
