Veeramani meaning
Veeramani (வீரமணி) is a Tamil boy's name.
Jewel of heroism; a gem among the brave
Also used to mean: brave gem
Veeramani (வீரமணி) joins vīram, which the Tamil Lexicon gives as heroism, bravery and prowess, with maṇi, a gem or precious stone; maṇi is also used in Tamil names, as in Manikandan, for something treasured. The name reads 'jewel of heroism' or 'a gem among the brave'. It is a Tamil boys' name, borne for example by K. Veeramani, the long-serving president of the Dravidar Kazhagam.
