'''Balasubramaniam''' or '''Balasubramanian''' ({{lang-ta|பாலசுப்ரமணியம்}}; {{lang-te|బాల సుబ్రహ్మణ్యం}}; {{lang-kn|ಬಾಲಸುಬ್ರಹ್ಮಣ್ಯಂ}}; {{lang-ml|ബാലസുബ്രഹ്മണ്യം}}) is a male [[given name]] in [[South India]] and [[Sri Lanka]]. Due to the [[Indian name#South Indian names|South Indian tradition]] of using [[patronymic surname]]s it may also be a [[surname]] for males and females. Balasubramaniam is derived from the [[Sanskrit]] words ''balu'' meaning "young" and [[Subramaniam]] (itself derived from the Sanskrit words ''su'', meaning "auspicious" and ''brahmanyam'', translated loosely as "auspicious effulgence of the Supreme Spirit"). By extension, it refers to the [[Hinduism|Hindu]] god [[Murugan]] as a child or young man, the way the term [[Bala Krishna|Balakrishna]] refers to the young [[Krishna]].<br />
<br />
In Telugu, the name is written as '''Balasubrahmanyam''' or '''Balasubramanyam''', closer to the Sanskrit root word. In Kannada, the name is transliterated as '''Balasubrahmanya''' or '''Balasubramanya'''.<br />
