Siddhrtha

Siddhrtha is a male given name of Indian origin and a variant transliteration of the Sanskrit name Siddhartha. The name is formed from siddha- meaning “achieved, accomplished” and -artha meaning “goal,” “meaning,” or “wealth,” and is commonly interpreted as “one who has attained his goal” or “prosperous.” In Hindu, Buddhist and Jain contexts, Siddhartha is associated with the idea of a seeker who proceeds toward enlightenment or fulfillment.

The most famous bearer of this name is Siddhartha Gautama, known as the Buddha, the historical founder of Buddhism, who is traditionally held to have attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. Beyond this religious association, Siddhartha—in its various spellings—is a widely used given name in India, Nepal, and among South Asian communities worldwide. Variants include Siddhartha, Siddharth, Siddharto, and other transliterations; Siddhrtha is a less common form but understood to refer to the same name.

Notable contemporary individuals bearing this name (in its common spellings) include the oncologist and writer Siddhartha Mukherjee, and the Indian politician Siddhartha Shankar Ray. The name appears in literature, cinema, and public life across South Asia and among the diaspora, reflecting its enduring cultural and religious associations.
