Havyakavyaikaphaladayaka (हव्यकव्यैकफलदायक, IAST: Havyakavyaikaphaladāyaka) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Sole bestower of fruits from all sacred oblations”. Constructed from havya, kavya, eka, phala (fruit/result), and dāyaka (giver), this name affirms that Vishnu alone grants the complete fruition of every sacrifice, whether offered to the celestial or to the ancestral realm.

Meaning, etymology & significance

Where the preceding name speaks of Vishnu as the consumer of offerings, this name emphasizes His role as the dispenser of their rewards. Phala here encompasses material blessings, spiritual merit, and ultimate liberation. The prefix eka (sole) underscores the non-dualist teaching that no secondary deity independently grants results; all fruition flows through the singular will of Vishnu.

Devotees recite this name during pitṛ-tarpana and homa ceremonies to invoke Vishnu's grace upon their ritual acts. As a given name it is unwieldy in full form; Phaladāyaka or Phaladā are sometimes used as shorter devotional variants.
