Tanashiri

Tanashiri is a feminine name of Filipino origin, meaning “sacred lotus.” This poetic appellation may be a form of the Hindi Dhanashiri, one of the many titles of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi. This ethereal empress is often referred to as the Lotus Goddess, which may be where Tanashiri gains its floral meaning. As the Lotus Goddess, Lakshmi is also a member of the Buddhist pantheon. The lotus flower symbolizes fertility and life, both wonderful endearments to celebrate your little blossom’s arrival. A wistful name that gently nods to Hinduism and Buddhism, naming baby Tanashiri is an enchanting way to welcome them to your faith.
