ShivAkhilaj~nAnakosh (शिवाखिलज्ञानकोश, IAST: Śivākhilajñānakośa) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Treasury of all the knowledge that belongs to Śiva”. Śiva (the auspicious Lord), akhila (all, entire), jñāna (knowledge, gnosis), and kośa (treasury, storehouse) together proclaim Viṣṇu as the inexhaustible repository of every form of sacred knowledge that flows through or is associated with Śiva—a declaration of the ultimate unity of divine wisdom.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Kośa in Sanskrit is a sheath or treasure-chest, used in Vedānta to describe the layers that veil the ātman and also in compound names to denote a complete compendium. Akhila intensifies the totality—no fragment of Śiva's omniscient wisdom lies outside this divine treasury. The name thus expresses the non-dual teaching that the supreme Lord is the very source and storehouse of all wisdom, whether approached through Vaiṣṇava or Śaiva paths.
As an epithet of Viṣṇu, Śivākhilajñānakośa appears in devotional catalogues that celebrate the Lord's omniscience. It is a philosophical compound suited to scholarly discourse and stotra recitation rather than use as a personal given name.

ShivAkhilaj~nAnakosh appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
