Nirvāṇa means "liberation". I would not say that nirvāṇa specifically means "renunciation of all material desires" but rather that by renunciation of all material desires a person comes up to the level of nirvāṇa or liberation.
This is because the liberation is not achieved merely by renunciation of all material desires but by the grace of the Lord.
Scriptures say that a person achieves liberation as an act of grace of the Lord. If the Lord does not grant liberation and thus does not give his grace, even the most renunciated person will not achieve liberation!
