Surabhi meaning
Surabhi (सुरभि) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Fragrant, charming, lovely; the cow of plenty
Surabhi (सुरभि) is a Sanskrit word Monier-Williams glosses as "sweet-smelling, fragrant" and "charming, pleasing, lovely", and as a noun "fragrance, perfume". As a feminine name it belongs to the divine cow of the epics, daughter of Daksha and mother of all cattle, often identified with Kamadhenu, the cow of plenty who grants every wish. Name lists give "fragrance" or "fragrant", which matches. Surbhi is the Hindi spelling and Suravi the Bengali one.
