Putri

Putri is a feminine given name used in Indonesia, Malaysia, and other Malay-speaking communities. In Indonesian, the noun putri means daughter. The term derives from the Sanskrit putrī, which also means daughter in many Indic languages. In Malay, the related word for a princess is puteri, but putri is commonly used as a personal name rather than a title.

As a given name, Putri is widely chosen for its positive associations with lineage and virtue. It is commonly employed as a stand-alone given name or as part of a compound name in multi-element naming practices. The popularity of Putri reflects broader cultural naming traditions in the region, which frequently favor names with meaningful or auspicious concepts.
