Prakaṭākṛti (प्रकटाकृति, IAST: Prakaṭākṛti) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “She whose form is manifestly revealed”. From prakaṭa ('manifest, evident') + ākṛti ('form, figure'), this compound names the Goddess as the one whose divine form blazes forth visibly, self-luminous and impossible to conceal.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Prakaṭa derives from pra- + kaṭ ('to manifest'), meaning openly revealed or shining forth, while ākṛti means the shape or visible form of a being. Together, Prakaṭākṛti describes the Goddess as the one whose beauty and divine presence are not hidden in abstraction but radiate openly into the world for the eyes and hearts of her devotees. This name celebrates the Goddess's gracious descent into perceptible form, making the infinite tangible through her splendor.
As Prakaṭākṛti, Lalitā is honored for the grace by which she assumes a recognizable, luminous form accessible to devotional vision (darśana). The compound name is pronounced pra-ka-ṭā-kṛ-ti and, while descriptive in origin, is occasionally used as a given name in traditional families.

Prakaṭākṛti appears in the Lalitha Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Lalitha.
