Meaning & origin

Anjoli is a feminine name of Sanskrit origin, meaning 'offering' or 'tribute'. It is a variant of the more common Anjali, which is associated with the respectful gesture of cupped hands used in Hindu ceremonies. First recorded in the United States in 1979, Anjoli has never ranked among the top 1000 names. Its peak usage came in 2002, and in recent years it has remained stable but rare, given to fewer than five babies per year nationally. The name has not been strongly associated with any particular state, reflecting its scattered but consistent use. Anjoli is a gentle, melodic choice that carries cultural depth without being widely adopted, making it a distinctive option for families seeking a connection to Indian heritage.

Anjoli is a variant of Anjali, a Sanskrit word meaning 'offering' or 'salutation' often performed with cupped hands. The name is common in India and among the Indian diaspora. It is used for girls and has seen modest usage in the United States since the late 20th century.
