Sujana meaning

Sujana (सुजना) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (Telugu and Kannada usage).

A good, virtuous, kind or benevolent person

Also used to mean: good person

Sujana (सुजना) is Sanskrit sujana, from su-, "good", and jana, "person". Monier-Williams gives it as a good, virtuous, kind or benevolent person, and notes that it applies to a man or a woman. In Indian languages sujan still describes a decent, cultured person. Name lists give "good person" or "virtuous", matching the dictionary. In the North the form Sujan is a boys' name, while in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka Sujana is given to girls.
