Sulakshana meaning
Sulakshana (सुलक्षणा) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Having good or auspicious marks; a good characteristic
Also used to mean: having good qualities
Sulakshana (सुलक्षणा) joins su-, "good", with lakṣaṇa, which Monier-Williams gives as "a mark, sign, characteristic, quality". The dictionary defines sulakṣaṇa as "a good or auspicious mark or characteristic", the kind of sign once looked for in a person's features, and lists Sulakshana as a wife of Krishna and a friend of Uma. Name lists give "one with auspicious qualities", which matches. Sulakshana Pandit, the Hindi film singer and actress, is a well-known bearer.
