Shanvi meaning
Shanvi (शान्वी) is a Hindu girl's name.
Meaning today
Knowledgeable, glowing, goddess lakshmi
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.
Shanvi (शान्वी) is a modern girls' name used in Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, similar in sound to Saanvi. It has no entry in the Sanskrit dictionaries of Monier-Williams or Apte, and name sites give a scatter of meanings: "knowledgeable", "glowing", "peace" (by linking it to śānti) or a name of Lakshmi. None of these can be traced to a source, so we treat Shanvi as a modern name chosen for its sound, with whichever of these meanings the family prefers.
