Meenakshi:
Meenakshi (Sanskrit: मीनाक्षि, romanized: Minaksi, Tamil: மீனாக்ஷி, romanized: Minaksi; also spelled as Minakshi; also known as Angayarkanni, Minatchi and Tadadakai is a Hindu goddess. She is the tutelary deity of Madurai and is considered an avatar of the goddess Parvati. She is the divine consort of Sundareśvarar, a form of Shiva. She finds mention in literature as the queen of the ancient Madurai-based Pandya kingdom, and is later deified. The goddess is also extolled by Adi Shankara as Shri Vidya.She is mainly worshipped in India where she has a major temple devoted to her known as the Meenakshi Temple in Madurai, Tamil Nadu. Meenakshi, Kamakshi, and Visalakshi are considered the three Shakti forms of the goddess Parvati.
Etymology: Minaksi is a Sanskrit term meaning 'fish-eyed', derived from the words mīna 'fish' and aksi 'eye'. She was also known by the Tamil name Taḍādakai 'fish-eyed one', mentioned in early historical account as a fierce, unmarried goddess as Meenakshi. She is also known by the Tamil name Aṅgayaṟkaṇṇi or Aṅgayaṟkaṇṇammai (lit. 'the mother with the beautiful fish eyes').[2][3] According to another theory, the name of the goddess literally means 'rule of the fish', derived from the Tamil words mīn 'fish' and atciact 'rule'.
