Kuruvilla
Kuruvilla (also spelled as Kuruvila) is a Christian first name from Kerala, South India. The name is also used as a surname. Its root is traced to the Syriac name Coorilos and Greek names Cyril (also Cyrillus or Cyryl) and Kyrios , which may mean 'of God, Lord or Master' or in the Christian context Jesus. So the etymological meaning of Kuruvilla is "the one who belongs to the Lord.". It is a common surname among Knanaya Jacobite Christians who traces their endogamous traditions back to AD 345.
