Draupadi

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Indian

Meaning: Daughter of fire; Daughter of Drupada

Draupadi is a feminine name of Indian origin and familiar to followers of the Mahābhārata, a Sanskrit epic revered in Hinduism. The Mahābhārata and the Rāmāyaṇa are the two primary Smriti texts in Hinduism, and Draupadi is the main female protagonist of the former. She is known as the "daughter of Drupada," the "daughter of fire," and is famed for her beauty, courage, and marriage to the five Pandava brothers. Baby Draupadi will likely share similar traits in that their inner beauty is undeniable, while their courage will grow exponentially. However, your little one getting married five times to five brothers in the same family is probably less likely.
