An Indian honorific title meaning 'princess,' used for the daughters of maharajas and other royal or noble families. In modern Indian usage, Rajkumari has evolved beyond strict royalty — it can be used affectionately to call a young girl a princess, or playfully to tease someone acting spoiled or entitled. It's also a popular given name for women across India. The word carries warmth, dignity, and a touch of old-world glamour.

Her dad always called her Rajkumari growing up, and she never got tired of it.
Origin: From Sanskrit and Hindi: 'raj' meaning 'king' or 'rule' and 'kumari' meaning 'girl' or 'virgin/unmarried woman.' Directly translates as 'king's daughter' or 'princess.' Used across Hindi, Punjabi, and other North Indian languages. Editorial expansion authored on Slangora.
