Saraswati (सरस्वती) means "the flowing one" in Sanskrit — from saras (flow). She is the Hindu goddess of knowledge, music, arts, wisdom, and learning.
Saraswati is celebrated annually on Vasant Panchami.
Saraswati does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Saraswati reduce to 3, The Communicator. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
