The name "indri" most likely comes from a native Malagasy name for the animal, endrina.^[1] An oft-repeated, but incorrect story is that the name comes from indry mg, meaning "there" or "there it is". French naturalist Pierre Sonnerat, who first described the animal, supposedly heard a Malagasy point out the animal and took the word to be its name.^[1] It has been suggested that he may have heard the local name endrina which is used.^[2] Another Malagasy name for the animal is babakoto mg. Babakoto is most commonly translated as "ancestor" or "father", but several translations are possible. "Koto" is a Malagasy word for "little boy" and "Rakoto" is a common name, with "Koto" as its diminutive.^[3] As "baba" is a term for "father," the word "babakoto" may be translated as "father of a little boy" or "father of Rakoto." The father-son dynamic of many of the babakoto origin myths helps to explain the Malagasy name.^{[ana buƙatar hujja]}

Along with the diademed sifaka, the indri is the largest lemur still in existence; both have average weights of about 6.5 kg.^[4][5] It can weigh up to 9.0 kilograms (19.8 lb)^[5] to 9.5 kilograms (21 lb) and perhaps up to 15 kilograms (33 lb).^{[ana buƙatar hujja]} It has a head-body length of 64–72 centimetres (2 ft 1 in–2 ft 4 in) and can reach nearly 120 centimetres (4 ft) with legs fully extended.^[6]
