Vasumati meaning

Vasumati (वसुमती) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.

The earth; a country or kingdom; literally 'rich in treasure'

Vasumati (वसुमती) is the feminine of Sanskrit vasumat, from vasu, "wealth, treasure", and the suffix -mat, "having". Monier-Williams gives vasumat as wealthy or rich and vasumatī as the earth, a country or kingdom and the ground, as well as the name of several women. The earth is "she who holds treasure", like the related Vasudha and Vasundhara. Name lists give "the earth" or "rich in treasure", matching the dictionary. Vasumathi is the usual South Indian spelling.
