Sukhaikabhu (सुखैकभू, IAST: sukhaikabhū) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “The sole and supreme source of all bliss”. From sukha (happiness, bliss), eka (one, sole), and bhū (source, ground of being), this name declares Vishnu to be the one and only origin of true joy.

Meaning, etymology & significance

Sukhaikabhū is a compound of sukha (bliss or happiness), eka (the single, the one), and bhū (that which is or that which produces). Together they declare that genuine, lasting happiness has but one ultimate source, and that source is Vishnu Himself. This name resonates with the Taittirīya Upanishad's teaching that the Infinite alone is bliss (ānandaṃ brahma).

As an epithet in the Vishnu Sahasranama, Sukhaikabhū reminds devotees that seeking joy in anything other than the Divine is to seek the finite. Pronounced su-khai-ka-BHOO, the name is philosophically rich but slightly complex as a given name, often simplified to Sukhabhū in daily use.
