Sukma – சுக்மா

Sukma (சுக்மா) is a short, melodic Tamil given name that carries a gentle, refined tone. The form resembles Sanskrit sūkṣma, often rendered as ‘subtle’ or ‘delicate’, and in some South and Southeast Asian contexts the word has associations with the ‘soul’ or inner self. Its exact origin and intended meaning specifically in Tamil usage are not firmly established, so parents may choose it for its soft sound and contemplative associations.
