"Raama is name of a male. It is from Epic Raamaayana. Ayya is a honorific suffix added in all south Indian languages including Telugu. This is mainly for educated or experienced person. It is from Ayya, the term Ayyar was coined.

Vasthaavaa means Coming? in questionable form. It is equivalent to “Are you coming” in English. Again Ayya is honourofic suffix added to question. This is similar to “Are you coming Sir?

Literal Translation will be Raama Sir, Coming Sir? in questionable form."
