संस्कृत = सम् + √कृ

संस्कृत = सम् + कृ 

सम् means well or complete and कृ is a dhatu or verbal root which means done or formed so the word combinely means "well or completely formed" / "well made". There is no specific synonym for Sanskrit, but Sanskrit is also called as a देववाणी (devavāṇī) which means language of gods or divine language and वेदवाणी (vedavāṇī) means language of Vedas.  

सुरभाषा (surabhāṣā), गिर्वाणभारती (girvāṇabhāratī) this are similar words for Sanskrit.
