    does it refer to Srivas Pandita from the Pancattatva or Srinivas acarya?

    On Gaura's right is Nityananda, Left is Gadadhara, Nearby is Advaita, and then Srinivasa?

    I researched online and found this from another song of Bhaktivinode Thakur in same Gitavali where Gaura Arati is from:
    Sriman Mahaprabhura cata-nama
    A Hundred Names of Lord Caitanya
    Text 9
    adwaita-bandhaba Srinibasa-grha-dhana
    nityananda-prana gadadharera jibana
    O friend of Advaita (Advaita-bandhava), O wealth of
    Srivasa's home (Srinivasa-grha-dhana), O life of Nityananda
    (Nityananda-prana), O life of Gadadhara (Gadadhara-jivana)!

    So translation of Srinivasa-grha is Srivas.

    So definitely Gaura Arati is referring to Srivas Pandit. That is Panchatattva picture being drawn for us.

    we can also refer to Caitanya Caritamrta
    Adi Lila 4.TEXTS 227–228

    where in the verse it comes Srinivas and Srila Prabhupada had translated as Srivas..
    Amalagaura prabhu your answer is correct

    Srivasa and Srinivasa have the same meaning - the abode (vasa/nivasa) of Sri (Laksmi).
