Ezhīsaiyan (ஏழிசையன்) translates to "one who is master of the seven musical notes" or "one who embodies the seven musical scales." In Tamil musicology, "Ezhīsai" (ஏழிசை) refers to the seven basic musical notes (Sa, Ri, Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, Ni) which form the foundation of all melodies.

The name signifies a profound connection to music, art, and melody. It suggests a person with inherent musical talent, a deep understanding of harmony, and the ability to create beautiful sounds.

While "Ezhīsaiyan" is not a commonly found name in ancient Tamil literature or mythology as a specific individual's name, the concept of "Ezhīsai" is deeply ingrained in Tamil classical music traditions, particularly Carnatic music which has roots in Tamil culture. The term itself evokes the rich musical heritage of the Tamils. There might be instances of this name being used in more recent times by individuals with a strong musical background or inclination, but no prominent historical figures are widely known by this exact name.
