Etymology: From Middle Chinese 龍樹 (MC ljowng dzyuX|dzyuH, literally “dragon + tree”), in turn a translation of Sanskrit नागार्जुन (nāgārjuna). Listed in one monolingual Japanese source as an 音訳 (on'yaku, “transcription”, literally “sound translation”) of the Sanskrit, but considering the Middle Chinese and Sanskrit phonetics, this seems unlikely.
