Stutya (स्तुत्य, IAST: Stutya) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Worthy of all praise and hymning”. From the root stu (to praise, to extol) with the gerundive suffix -ya, Stutya names Vishnu as the one who is inherently deserving of praise — whose very nature calls forth hymns and glorification.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The gerundive form -ya in Sanskrit conveys obligation or worthiness: stutya does not merely mean 'praised' but 'one who ought to be praised.' This gives the name a normative force — it is not merely that devotees happen to praise Vishnu, but that praising him is the correct and natural response to encountering the Divine.
Stutya is an uncommon but philosophically crisp given name, occasionally found in traditional Brahmin families who choose names with Sahasranama provenance. Pronounced stu-tya, it is brisk and clear, though the conjunct ty may need slight care in non-Sanskrit-speaking contexts.
Scriptural source
Stutya appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
