Sudeepa meaning
Sudeepa (सुदीपा) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
A fine light or lamp (su 'good' + dīpa 'lamp, light')
Also used to mean: bright
Sudeepa (सुदीपा) is a feminine name built from two Sanskrit parts: su, "good, well", and dīpa, which Monier-Williams glosses as a light, lamp or lantern. The whole word sudīpā is not a dictionary headword, so the name is best read as "a fine light". Name lists give the meaning "bright", which fits the related word sudīpta, "shining bright". The name is used in many parts of India, especially in the south and in Bengal, where Sudipa is the usual spelling, and Sudeep is the boys' form.
