    What you heard is correct.Sree is from siri, siri means wealth,and Goddess Laximi is known as the Goddess of wealth.and ja means son/daughter.Sreeja means Son/Daughter of Laximi.The name Sreeja is selected by the parents so as to the child should be wealthy.

    Mind one more thing,when ever you find "ja",remember it, Ja means Son/daughter.

    Padmaja=born to padma(lotus)

    Neeraja=Born in water

    Shailaja=Born through stone (shila)(Ahalya=Ahalya was as stone,due to a "shap" of some muni,when Sri Ram's eet touches the stone turns to Ahalya

    Himaja=Born in ice(Parwati)

    Thanks for asking a good question,and utilising the Y.A. in correct sense ,and I am happy to answer a good question after a long time.Keep it up,and ask if you got any doubt,if I am able to answer I will or some other will answer it definitely,some rude answers may also receive ,just ignore them.

    Best of luck.

    @Yes,What Mr.Manish has said about Shailaja.Of course in sense of turning,coming for easy understand I said "born to " shila/stone,to understand "Ja".Thanks for correction to Mr.Manish.I welcome you.

    No, as per word meaning it means ' daughter of Laxmi ' just like Shailja means Parwati ( daughter of mountain, Himalaya ) Shail meand mountain & Shree means Laxmi. Parwati is also known as Himja as her father was Himalaya.

    I have read in one answer so for your in formation Ahilya was not born of the stone she was converted in to stone by a curse later released by the touch of Ram's feet.

    In sanskrit, "Sree" refers to Goddess Lakshmi. it also refers to wealth, prosperity, etc etc.

    and "Ja" means " born with" or "born of"

    so sreeja means "born with good wealth (and prosperity)" . it also indirectly refers to Goddess Lakshmi

    sree - siri - wealth - lakshmi.

    ja - daughter.

    so, it daughter of wealth or lakshmi:)

    by the way, the name is derived from the language "sanskrit" which is no longer spoken.
