Sarvajnada (सर्वज्ञद, IAST: Sarvajñada) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Bestower of complete, all-encompassing knowledge”. From sarva (all), jña (knowing), and da (giver, bestower), this name declares Vishnu as the gracious lord who grants omniscience to those who take refuge in him.

Meaning, etymology & significance

While sarva­jña alone means omniscient, the suffix -da transforms the attribute into an act of divine generosity: Vishnu does not merely possess all knowledge but freely imparts it to deserving seekers. This quality is central to the Guru-aspect of Vishnu, who, through his avatāras and the grace of the Śāstras, elevates human understanding toward the infinite. The name thus binds together jñāna (knowledge) and bhakti (devotion) in a single title.

Sarvajñada appears as an epithet in the Vishnu Sahasranāma and related stotras, emphasizing the Lord's role as the ultimate teacher who removes ignorance and grants liberation. Pronounced sar-va-GYAA-da; Sarvajña on its own is a more common given name form.
