Vinutha meaning
Vinutha (विनुता) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin (Kannada usage).
Praised
Vinutha (विनुता, Kannada ವಿನುತಾ) comes from Sanskrit vi-nuta, "praised". Its base is nuta, "praised, commended", from the verb root nu, which Monier-Williams records with senses running from "to sound, shout, exult" to "praise, commend". Kittel's Kannada–English dictionary lists ವಿನುತ as "praised" and also as the name of a verse metre, next to vinuti, "praise". Name lists mostly give the meaning "praised", which matches the dictionaries. Vinutha is a girls' name heard mainly in Karnataka. The Kannada spelling ends in a long ā, and families write it in English with "th" for the soft dental t, as in many South Indian names.
