Vrikodara means a person who has a voracious or ravenous appetite. It is also used to indicate wolf-bellied, imagine a person with a hungry wolf in his stomach.

It is a compound Sanskrit word, consisting of the terms vrka and udara, literally a person who has a generous gluttonous fire in his stomach.
