Tamil Name

The name "எழுத்தறிபெருமால்" (Ezhutharipirumal) in Tamil means "Lord who has the knowledge of letters" or "Great Lord who is learned in script." "எழுத்து" (Ezhuthu) means letter or script, "அறி" (Ari) means knowledge or awareness, and "பெருமால்" (Perumal) is a respectful title often used for deities, particularly Vishnu, meaning "great lord" or "beloved lord."

This name signifies divine wisdom, knowledge of the scriptures, and the mastery of language and learning. It attributes to a divine entity or a highly revered person the ultimate understanding and command over written knowledge. In a spiritual context, it points to the divine source of all knowledge and wisdom.

While "எழுத்தறிபெருமால்" is not a commonly found historical name for a specific widely known individual or deity in mainstream Tamil literature or history, the components of the name are significant. "Perumal" is a very common appellation for Lord Vishnu in Tamil Nadu, and many Vaishnavite saints and devotees have names incorporating "Perumal." The concept of divine knowledge being attributed to deities is also prevalent. It is possible this name was used in a more localized or less documented tradition, or as a descriptive epithet rather than a personal name. The emphasis on "knowledge of letters" suggests a learned individual or a divine being associated with the creation or preservation of knowledge.
