History References
The name Valavan (வளவன்) was a prominent epithet for the Chola kings. While "Perumvalavan" as a specific given name is less common in direct historical records for a single individual, the components of the name are deeply rooted in Tamil history and royalty, particularly associated with the Chola dynasty who were known for their vast kingdoms, rich resources, and powerful rule. The term "Valavan" itself is a title signifying a ruler with abundant resources and a prosperous reign, making "Perumvalavan" an amplified version of this noble and prosperous descriptor.
