Madhavi is of Indian origin, derived from Sanskrit. It means 'sweet' or 'honey'. The name is often used for females and is considered to have a soft and pleasing sound, much like its meaning. Madhavi is also the name of several characters in Hindu mythology, which adds to its cultural significance.
"The name Madhavi has seen a notable rise and fall in popularity over the past five decades, with a significant spike in usage between 1970 and 2008, peaking at 8 births each year in those two years. Since then, it has stabilized around an average of 5-6 births per year."
