: archive.org: Personal and geographical names in the Gupta inscriptions

ܳī (कुमारदेवी) is an example of a Śaivite name mentioned in the Gupta inscriptions. Classification of personal names according to deities (e.g., from Śaivism) were sometimes used by more than one person and somehow seem to have been popular. The Gupta empire (r. 3rd-century CE), founded by Śrī Gupta, covered much of ancient India and embraced the Dharmic religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. Derivation of personal names (e.g., ܳī) during the rule of the Guptas followed patterns such as tribes, places, rivers and mountains.

ܳī (कुमारदेवी).—It is not very difficult to surmise how Candragupta rose to power. It was doubtless through his marriage with the Licchavi princess, Mahādevī ܳī. Their son, Samudragupta, in his Allahabad pillar inscription, calls himself with pride Licchavi-dauhitra, “the daughter’s son of the Licchavi (King).� The same epithet has been applied to him by his successor in their records.
