Srujana meaning
Srujana (सृजना) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (Telugu and Odia usage).
Creating, making, producing; creation
Srujana (सृजना) comes from sṛjan, "creating, making, forming, producing", built on the Sanskrit root sṛj, "to create, to send forth". Platts records sṛjan in this sense, and Monier-Williams treats the form as another reading of sarjana, "the act of creating, creation". Name lists explain Srujana as "creation" or "creativity", which matches. The spelling with ru reflects the way ṛ is pronounced in Telugu, Kannada, Marathi and Odia, and the name is used mainly in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The boy's name Srijan or Srujan comes from the same word.
