We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Shreyank (श्रेयांक) is a modern name with no entry of its own in the Sanskrit dictionaries. Its first part is clearly śreyas, which Monier-Williams gives as better, superior or more excellent and, as a noun, welfare, good fortune and bliss, the same word behind Shreyas and Shreya. The ending is probably aṅka, "a mark, sign", but we could not confirm the compound. Families use Shreyank to mean "fame", a sense that fits its root but that we could not find in a dictionary. It is used in Gujarat, Maharashtra and north India.
