Sulabha meaning
Sulabha (सुलभा) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Easy to obtain, easily attainable; a female ascetic in the Mahābhārata
Also used to mean: accessible
Sulabha (सुलभा) is the feminine of Sanskrit sulabha, "easy to obtain, easily accessible", from su, "easy, well", and labha, "obtaining". Monier-Williams also lists Sulabhā as the name of a female teacher in the ritual texts and of a female mendicant in the Mahābhārata; in the Śānti Parva this ascetic Sulabhā visits King Janaka of Mithilā and debates him on freedom and the self. The feminine word is also a name for holy basil and Arabian jasmine. Name lists give "easily attainable", the dictionary sense. The name is used in Maharashtra.
