About Santra

Also used as a surname, Santra is both a Finnish and Greek form of Sandra, and a Hindi and Marathi name, meaning "orange", making it a multicultural choice that travels well.

In the first instance, it derives from the classic Alexandra and would be pronounced SAN-tra in Finnish and san-DHRA in Greek (DH like the sound at the beginning of them>).

In the second — and more popular — case, Santra is an Indian name, ultimately derived from the Sanskrit santram, the Hindi and Marathi santre and the Urdu santari, all referring to oranges, as in the citrus fruit. In this case, it would be said as SUN-truh or SUN-tru

Pronounced SAHN-truh.
