Vishvavriksha (विश्ववृक्ष, IAST: Viśvavṛkṣa) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “He who is the cosmic tree of the universe”. From viśva (universe, all) and vṛkṣa (tree), this name identifies Viṣṇu with the eternal Aśvattha, the cosmic world-tree whose roots are above and branches below, as described in the Bhagavad Gītā.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Viśva means the entire universe or all existence, and vṛkṣa is the Sanskrit word for tree. The compound evokes the metaphysical image of the imperishable tree of saṃsāra described in the fifteenth chapter of the Bhagavad Gītā, where Kṛṣṇa-Viṣṇu declares Himself to be its root. In this vision, all of creation hangs from and is sustained by the divine, making Viṣṇu the living trunk from which all worlds branch forth.
Viśvavṛkṣa is an epithet of Lord Viṣṇu as the primordial, all-encompassing support of the cosmos. It is a dignified and usable given name; pronounced VISH-va-VRIK-sha, it is memorable and carries deep philosophical resonance.

Vishvavriksha appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
