Madhvacharya's Dvaita Vedanta and translation of Sarvamoola containing Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads, and Brahmasutra.

Bhagavad Gīta Bhāshya and Tātparya

I am the wind among purifiers, Rāma among wielders of weapons; among aquatic creatures, I am the makara, and among rivers, I am the Gaṅgā (Jāhnavī).

Gīta Bhāshya 10.31

'Rāma' - one who is of the nature of bliss, complete, and delights the worlds.

He is called Rāma because He is of the nature of bliss, complete, and delights the worlds.

"He is of the nature of bliss, immeasurable; and the world delights in Him — therefore He is called Rāma."

- stated thus in the Śāṇḍilya branch of Vedic testimonial.

The etymological derivation is ‘ra’ + ‘ama’.

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
