Not sure. This was a woman. And in Hindi(?) it means vagina.

    Yes it does, in modern parlance. From what I can tell though it;s older Sanskrit meaning was "the source" in relationship to life, or the divine creation, and could mean womb, etc.. but the name is still common today because it has long standing traditional spiritual meaning, and is less seen for the modern use of the word. It is also the base of Yonic, or vaginal like.
