Meaning & origin

Srihitha is a modern Sanskrit-derived name that first entered U.S. Social Security records in 2004. It has remained relatively rare, with a ranking of 14,942 in 2025 and approximately 1 in 321,453 newborns receiving the name. Its peak year of usage was 2013, and its trajectory has been stable since. The name is most common in South Indian diaspora communities and reflects a trend of combining auspicious Sanskrit roots. While not among the top names, Srihitha offers a distinctive choice with a melodic sound and cultural resonance.

Srihitha appears to be a modern coinage combining Sanskrit-derived elements: 'Sri' (श्री) denoting prosperity, radiance, or the goddess Lakshmi, and 'hitha' (हित) meaning welfare or benefit. The name is primarily found in South Indian communities and has gained modest usage since the early 2000s in the United States, likely as a female given name.
