The traditional Sanskrit explanation of the name Vishu involves the root viś, meaning "to settle, to enter", or also (in the Rigveda) "to pervade", and a suffix nu, translating to approximately "the All-Pervading One". An early commentator on the Vedas, Yaska, in his Nirukta, defines Vishnu as 'vishnu vishateh; one who enters everywhere', and 'yad vishito bhavati tad vishnurbhavati; that which is free from fetters and bondages is Vishnu.'

However, as the name is of one of the male trinity of Hindu gods, it is a male name.

Vaishnavi (sanskrit, feminine form of Vaishnava) is a legendary figure in the Hindu tradition and the consort of Lord Vishnu.

What are some examples of natural gender languages and how do they differ from grammatical gender languages?

Natural gender languages assign gender to nouns based on the actual gender of the living beings they represent, such as English. Grammatical gender languages assign gender to nouns based on arbitrary rules, such as Spanish or French. In natural gender languages, gender is inherent to the noun's meaning, while in grammatical gender languages, gender is a grammatical feature that may not correspond to the noun's actual gender.
