Purva is a beautiful name for a baby girl with Indian origins. It is pronounced as "PUR-vuh" (/pɜrˈvə/). Another variation of the name is Purvi. This name holds a special significance in Indian culture, as it means "eastern" or "from the east." In Hindu mythology, the east is associated with new beginnings and fresh starts, making Purva a perfect choice for parents who wish to symbolize optimism and hope for their daughter's future. While not very common in the United States, Purva has been steadily rising in popularity over the years.
