History & Origin
Sravya is a real Sanskrit and Telugu name built on shru, to hear, carrying the sense of one worth hearing or renowned. It is common in South India, especially among Telugu families, and it travelled to the United States with Indian immigrant households, edging to a modest high around twenty-ten.
This was never a common American name, given to only about twenty girls a year even at its peak, and it stayed rare here. A girl named Sravya at that high is in her mid-teens today. In India the name remains current, graceful, and well established.
