Shiuli

The name Shiuli is derived from the Sanskrit word 'śiuli' (शिउली), which refers to the Nyctanthes arbor-tristis flower, commonly known as the night-flowering jasmine or coral jasmine. This flower is highly fragrant and blooms at night, falling off the plant at dawn. In Indian culture, the shiuli flower holds symbolic significance, often associated with purity, devotion, and the arrival of autumn.

The name is predominantly used in India, particularly in Bengali-speaking regions, where the shiuli flower is deeply embedded in local poetry, songs, and traditions. Its usage as a given name reflects a cultural appreciation for nature and the delicate beauty of this specific flower.
